《Josephine Baker》歌词

[00:00:02] Josephine Baker (Live) - Al Stewart

[00:00:14] I was watching TV late last night

[00:00:18] And a scene transported me

[00:00:21] Long gone figures came back to life

[00:00:24] In a documentary

[00:00:28] Though I saw them dance for joy

[00:00:30] I was sad I missed that show

[00:00:34] If I had a time machine

[00:00:37] I know just where I'd go

[00:00:42] I was born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:00:45] Dancing in a Paris cabaret

[00:00:49] Born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:00:51] She must have been great in her heyday

[00:01:08] Now some they stand out from a crowd

[00:01:10] Even at an early age

[00:01:14] I believe that her call was loud

[00:01:16] 'Cause she just lit up the stage

[00:01:20] You can put on all that gloss

[00:01:23] And still not have to feel

[00:01:26] What's inside will come across

[00:01:29] And only real is real

[00:01:34] I was born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:01:37] Dancing in a Paris cabaret

[00:01:40] Born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:01:43] She must have been great in her heyday

[00:02:24] I'm sometimes trapped by the close confines

[00:02:27] Of the age I'm born into

[00:02:30] Though there were others worse than mine

[00:02:33] Well I miss what I can't do

[00:02:37] Join the feast of Ancient Greece

[00:02:39] See Alexander's Library

[00:02:43] Maybe clink a champagne toast

[00:02:46] With a jazz age dancing queen

[00:02:50] I was born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:02:54] Dancing in a Paris cabaret

[00:02:57] Born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:03:00] Dancing in a Paris cabaret

[00:03:03] In black and white film you can't mistake her

[00:03:06] She must have been great in her heyday
