《Mark Twain》歌词

[00:00:00] Mark Twain - Harry Belafonte
[00:00:05] Many years ago on the Mississippi riverboats
[00:00:08] They had men called gaugers
[00:00:11] And the job of a gauger was to hang off
[00:00:14] The side of the boat with one hand
[00:00:17] And in the other hand he had a ball of twine
[00:00:19] With a hunk a lead on the end of it
[00:00:21] He'd wield the lead above his head
[00:00:23] And let it fly into the river
[00:00:25] Wherever the water marked the twine
[00:00:27] He'd call up to the skipper and say
[00:00:31] Marking on the twine is four fathoms
[00:00:39] Cause then and there year after year
[00:00:40] It was getting pretty monotonous
[00:00:43] Until in the eighteen hundreds a little man
[00:00:46] Came along and revolutionized the
[00:00:47] Whole gauging industry
[00:00:49] Instead of saying marking on the twine
[00:00:52] He cut it short and said Mark twain
[00:00:57] And in between each marking he'd
[00:00:59] Fill it in with a little pattern about himself
[00:01:02] And his every day life
[00:01:04] Well if you'd been living at that time
[00:01:07] Coming up from a distance on the Mississippi
[00:01:10] It would have sounded like this
[00:01:15] Mark Twain four fathoms off the starboard bow
[00:01:34] I got a gal named Cindy-Lou
[00:01:38] Feeds me gin and bake beans too
[00:01:42] Mark Twain Mark Twain
[00:01:57] Three fathoms off the starboard bow
[00:02:05] I got a friend his name is Pete
[00:02:10] Sings dirty songs down on Beel street
[00:02:18] Mark Twain Mark Twain
[00:02:31] Two fathoms off the starboard bow
[00:02:40] I've been working the river since ninety two
[00:02:44] I get a penny a day and bad liquor too
[00:02:48] Mark Twain I won't save my money
[00:02:53] Till the day I die
[00:02:55] They gonna bury me all but my good right eye
[00:03:00] Mark twain Mark Twain
[00:03:13] No fathoms off the starboard bow
[00:03:22] Look out skipper pull it to the side
[00:03:24] You gonna bust your bow and split your hide
[00:03:28] Oh great God we done run it down
[00:03:31] Skipper gonna chase me with a big blood hound
[00:03:34] Mark Twain
