《Black River Killer》歌词

[00:00:00] Black River Killer - Blitzen Trapper

[00:00:06] It was just a little while past the sunset strip

[00:00:09] They found the girl's body in an open pit

[00:00:12] Her mouth was sewn shut, but her eyes were still wide

[00:00:15] Gazing through the fog to the other side

[00:00:18] They booked me on a whim and threw me deep in jail

[00:00:21] With no bail, sitting silent on a rusty pail

[00:00:24] Just gazing at the marks on the opposite wall

[00:00:27] Remembering the music of my lover's call

[00:00:36] So you make no mistake

[00:00:38] I know just what it takes

[00:00:39] To pull a man's soul back from heaven's gates

[00:00:42] I've been wandering in the dark about as long as sin

[00:00:45] But they say it's never too late to start again

[00:00:48] Oh when, oh when

[00:00:51] Will the spirit come a calling for my soul's sin

[00:00:54] Oh when, oh when

[00:00:57] Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?

[00:01:12] It was dark as the grave, it was just about three

[00:01:15] When the warden with his key came to set me free

[00:01:18] They gave me five dollars and a secondhand suit

[00:01:21] A pistol and a hat and a worn out flute

[00:01:24] So I took a bus down to the Rio Grande

[00:01:27] And I shot a man down on the edge of town

[00:01:30] Then I stole me a horse and I rode it around

[00:01:33] Til the sheriff pulled me in and sat me down

[00:01:37] He said, you make no mistake

[00:01:39] I know just what it takes

[00:01:40] To pull a man's soul back from heaven's gates

[00:01:43] I've been wandering in the dark about as long as sin

[00:01:46] But they say it's never too late to start again

[00:01:49] Oh when, oh when

[00:01:52] Will the spirit come a calling for my soul to sin

[00:01:55] Oh when, oh when

[00:01:58] Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?

[00:02:13] Well the sheriff let me go with a knife and a song

[00:02:16] So I took the first train up to Oregon

[00:02:19] And I killed the first man that I came upon

[00:02:22] Because the devil works quick, you know it don't take long

[00:02:27] Then I went to the river ford to take a swim

[00:02:29] You know that black river water is as black as sin

[00:02:32] And I washed myself clean as a newborn babe

[00:02:35] And then I picked up a rock for to sharpen my blade

[00:02:38] Oh when, oh when

[00:02:41] Will the spirit come a calling for my soul's sin

[00:02:44] Oh when, oh when

[00:02:47] Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?

[00:02:50] Oh when, oh when

[00:02:53] Will that black river water wash me clean again

[00:02:56] Oh when, oh when

[00:02:59] Will thee keys to the kingdom be mine again
