《Mexicali Blues(Live at Lyceum， London， England 5/23/1972)》歌词

[00:00:00] Mexicali Blues (Lyceum London England 5/23/1972) (live) - Grateful Dead

[00:00:18] Laid back in an old saloon with a peso in my hand

[00:00:23] Watching flies and children on the street

[00:00:26] And I catch a glimpse of black-eyed girls who giggle when I smile

[00:00:31] There's a little boy who wants to shine my feet

[00:00:34] And it's three days ride from Bakersfield I don't know why I came

[00:00:39] I guess I came to keep from paying dues

[00:00:42] So instead I've got a bottle and a girl who's just fourteen

[00:00:47] And a damn good case of the Mexicali blues yeh

[00:00:52] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:00:56] When the devil wants to take it all away

[00:00:59] Cherish well your thoughts and keep a tight grip on your booze

[00:01:03] Cause thinking and drinking are all I have today

[00:01:23] She said her name was billy jean and she was fresh in town

[00:01:27] I didn't know a stage line ran from hell

[00:01:31] She had raven hair a ruffled dress a necklace made of gold

[00:01:35] All the french perfume you'd care to smell

[00:01:39] She took me up into her room and whispered in my ear

[00:01:43] Go on my friend do anything you choose

[00:01:47] Now I'm paying for those happy hours I spent there in her arms

[00:01:51] With a lifetime's worth of the Mexicali blues

[00:01:56] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:02:00] When the devil wants to take it all away

[00:02:04] Cherish well your thoughts and keep a tight grip on your booze

[00:02:08] Cause thinking and drinking are all I have today

[00:02:28] And then a man rode into town some thought he was the law

[00:02:32] Billy jean was waiting when he came

[00:02:36] She told me he would take her if I didn't use my gun

[00:02:40] I'd have no one but myself to blame

[00:02:44] I went down to those dusty streets blood was on my mind

[00:02:48] I guess that stranger hadn't heard the news

[00:02:52] Cause I shot first and killed him lord he didn't even draw

[00:02:56] And he made me trade the gallows for the Mexicali blues

[00:03:01] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:03:05] When he let's a woman hold him in her hands

[00:03:08] He just might find himself out there on horseback in the dark

[00:03:12] Just riding and running across those desert sands
