《Travellin’ Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Travellin' Blues - Carmen McRae (卡门·麦克蕾)

[00:00:10] I've travelled across the country

[00:00:12] I've sung with lots of bands

[00:00:15] I've played in those big cities

[00:00:17] That book those one-night stands

[00:00:20] I'm lonely and I'm weary

[00:00:22] I know the scene so well

[00:00:24] The blues have come to get me

[00:00:26] And to drag me down to hell

[00:00:29] But I keep travelling

[00:00:32] What have I got to lose

[00:00:38] I keep travelling

[00:00:41] Unravelling all my blues

[00:00:48] I check into a hotel

[00:00:50] And then forget its name;

[00:00:52] Yes I could ask but oh well

[00:00:55] Aren't all hotels the same

[00:00:58] Sink into the mattress

[00:01:00] Pray God my soul to keep;

[00:01:02] The blues are in the street

[00:01:04] Cries that haunt my troubles sleep

[00:01:07] But I keep travelling

[00:01:11] What have I got to lose

[00:01:15] I just keep on

[00:01:19] Unravelling all my blues

[00:01:26] I wake up every morning

[00:01:29] Wonder where I'm at;

[00:01:31] I look into the mirror

[00:01:33] And ask myself "Who's that "

[00:01:35] I left behind a good man

[00:01:38] A face I can't recall

[00:01:40] And yet I love my old man

[00:01:43] Or no man's been love at all

[00:01:45] But I keep on travelling

[00:01:49] What have I got to lose

[00:01:54] Just keep on travelling

[00:01:57] Unravelling all my blues

[00:02:04] I know the blues confuse me

[00:02:07] Hold me in their trap;

[00:02:09] They meet me and they lose me

[00:02:11] While round ny brain they wrap

[00:02:14] A web of lonely journeys

[00:02:16] All spun from evil thread

[00:02:18] That twist and turn and tangle me

[00:02:21] Until my soul is dead

[00:02:23] Ooh-oo-oo but I keep travelling

[00:02:27] What have I got to lose

[00:02:32] I just keep travelling

[00:02:35] Trying to lose all my blues
