《The Silver Tongued Devil and I》歌词

[00:00:00] The Silver Tongued Devil And I (LP Version) - Kris Kristoffersen

[00:00:04] I took myself down to the Tally Ho Tavern

[00:00:10] To buy me a bottle of beer

[00:00:14] And I sat me down by a tender young maiden

[00:00:19] Who's eyes were as dark as her hair

[00:00:24] And as I was searching from bottle to bottle

[00:00:28] For something un-foolish to say

[00:00:33] That silver tongued devil

[00:00:35] Just slipped from the shadows

[00:00:37] And smilingly stole her away

[00:00:41] I said: "Hey little girl

[00:00:43] Don't you know he's the devil

[00:00:47] "He's everything that I ain't

[00:00:52] "Hiding intentions of evil

[00:00:57] "Under the smile of a saint

[00:01:01] "All he's good for is getting in trouble

[00:01:06] "And shiftin' his share of the blame

[00:01:10] "And some people swear he's my double:

[00:01:15] "And some even say we're the same

[00:01:19] "But the silver-tongued devil's got nothing to lose

[00:01:25] "I'll only live 'til I die

[00:01:29] "We take our own chances and pay our own dues

[00:01:36] "The silver tongued devil and I "

[00:01:43] Like all the fair maidens

[00:01:46] Who've laid down beside him

[00:01:48] She knew in her heart that he'd lied

[00:01:53] Nothing that I could have said could have saved her

[00:01:57] No matter how hard that she tried

[00:02:02] 'Cos she'll offer her charms

[00:02:05] To the darkness and danger

[00:02:07] Of somethin' that she's never known

[00:02:12] And open her arms at the smile of a stranger

[00:02:17] Who'll love her and leave her alone

[00:02:23] And you know he's the devil

[00:02:27] He's everything that I ain't

[00:02:32] Hiding intentions of evil

[00:02:36] Under the smile of a saint

[00:02:40] All he's good for is getting in trouble

[00:02:46] And shiftin' his share of the blame

[00:02:50] And some people swear he's my double

[00:02:55] And some even say we're the same

[00:02:59] But the silver-tongued devil's got nothing to lose

[00:03:05] I'll only live 'til I die

[00:03:09] We take our own chances and pay our own dues

[00:03:21] The silver tongued devil and I
