《Josephine Baker》歌词

[00:00:00] Josephine Baker - Al Stewart (阿尔·史蒂伍德)

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

[00:00:17] 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

[00:00:31] I was sad I missed that show

[00:00:35] If I had a time machine

[00:00:38] I know just where I'd go

[00:00:43] I was born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:00:47] Dancing in a Paris cabaret

[00:00:50] Born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:00:53] She must have been great in her heyday

[00:01:11] Now some they stand out from a crowd

[00:01:14] Even at an early age

[00:01:18] I suppose that her call was loud

[00:01:21] 'Cause she just lit up the stage

[00:01:26] You can put on all that gloss

[00:01:28] And still not have to feel

[00:01:32] What's inside will come across

[00:01:35] And only real is real

[00:01:40] I was born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:01:44] Dancing in a Paris cabaret

[00:01:48] Born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:01:51] Dancing in a paris cabaret

[00:01:54] Born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:01:58] She must have been great in her heyday

[00:02:36] I'm sometimes trapped by the close confines

[00:02:40] Of the age I'm born into

[00:02:43] Though there were others worse than mine

[00:02:46] Well I miss what I can't do

[00:02:51] Join the feast of Ancient Greece

[00:02:52] See Alexander's Library

[00:02:57] Maybe clink a champagne toast

[00:03:00] With a jazz age dancing queen

[00:03:06] I was born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:03:09] Dancing in a Paris cabaret

[00:03:13] Born too late to see Josephine Baker

[00:03:16] Dancing in a Paris cabaret

[00:03:19] In black and white film you can't mistake her

[00:03:23] She must have been great in her heyday

[00:03:41] Born too late to see Josephine Baker
