《Backwater Blues(78rpm Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Backwater Blues (78rpm Version) - Bessie Smith (贝西·史密斯)

[00:00:04] When it rains five days and the skies turn dark as night

[00:00:14] When it rains five days and the

[00:00:16] Skies turn dark as night

[00:00:23] Then trouble's takin' place in the

[00:00:27] Lowlands at night

[00:00:32] I woke up this mornin' can't

[00:00:35] Even get out of my door

[00:00:42] I woke up this mornin' can't

[00:00:44] Even get out of my door

[00:00:52] There's been enough trouble to make a

[00:00:54] Poor girl wonder where she want to go

[00:01:00] Then they rowed a little boat about

[00:01:03] Five miles 'cross the pond

[00:01:09] Then they rowed a little boat about

[00:01:12] Five miles 'cross the pond

[00:01:18] I packed all my clothes throwed

[00:01:21] Them in and they rowed me along

[00:01:28] When it thunders and lightnin' and

[00:01:30] When the wind begins to blow

[00:01:37] When it thunders and lightnin'

[00:01:39] And the wind begins to blow

[00:01:45] There's thousands of people

[00:01:47] Ain't got no place to go

[00:01:54] Then I went and stood upon

[00:01:57] Some high old lonesome hill

[00:02:03] Then I went and stood upon

[00:02:05] Some high old lonesome hill

[00:02:12] Then looked down on the house

[00:02:15] Were I used to live

[00:02:21] Backwater blues done call me to

[00:02:25] Pack my things and go

[00:02:30] Backwater blues done call me to

[00:02:33] Pack my things and go

[00:02:39] 'Cause my house fell down and

[00:02:42] I can't live there no more

[00:02:48] Mmm I can't move no more

[00:02:57] Mmm I can't move no more

[00:03:06] There ain't no place for a poor old girl to go
