《Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues (就像大拇指汤姆的布鲁斯) - Ramblin' Jack Elliott

[00:01:03] When you're lost in the rain

[00:01:06] In Juarez and it's Easter time too

[00:01:13] And your gravity fails

[00:01:15] And negativity won't pull you through

[00:01:23] Don't put on any airs

[00:01:26] When you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue

[00:01:33] They got some hungry women there

[00:01:36] And man they'll really make a mess outta you

[00:01:43] Now if you see Saint Annie

[00:01:46] Please tell her thanks a lot

[00:01:54] I cannot move

[00:01:56] My fingers are all in a knot

[00:02:04] I don't have the strength

[00:02:06] To get up and take another shot

[00:02:13] And my best friend my doctor

[00:02:16] Won't even say what it is I've got

[00:02:24] Sweet Melinda

[00:02:26] The peasants call her the goddess of gloom

[00:02:33] She speaks good English

[00:02:36] And she invites you up into her room

[00:02:43] And you're so kind and careful

[00:02:47] Not to go to her too soon

[00:02:53] And she takes your voice

[00:02:55] And leaves you howlin' at the moon

[00:03:03] Up on Housing Project Hill

[00:03:05] It's either fortune or fame

[00:03:12] You must pick up on one or the other

[00:03:15] Though neither of them are to be what they claim

[00:03:22] If you're lookin' to get silly

[00:03:25] You better go back to from where you came

[00:03:32] Because the cops don't need you

[00:03:34] And man they expect the same

[00:04:21] Now all the authorities

[00:04:23] They just stand around and boast

[00:04:30] How they blackmailed the Sergeant at Arms

[00:04:33] Into leavin' his post

[00:04:40] And pickin' up Angel

[00:04:42] Who just arrived here from the coast

[00:04:49] Who looked so fine at first

[00:04:51] But left lookin' just like a ghost

[00:04:58] I started out on Burgundy

[00:05:01] But soon hit the harder stuff

[00:05:08] Everybody said they'd stand behind me

[00:05:11] When the game got rough

[00:05:17] But the joke was on me

[00:05:20] There was nobody even there to call my bluff

[00:05:27] I'm goin' back to New York City

[00:05:29] I do believe I've had enough
