《Walking Down Death Row》歌词

[00:00:01] Walking Down Death Row - Pete Seeger

[00:00:06] Walking down death row

[00:00:10] I sang for three men destined for the chair

[00:00:17] Walking down death row

[00:00:21] I sang of lives and loves in other years

[00:00:28] Walking down death row

[00:00:31] I sang of hopes that used to be

[00:00:36] Through the bars into each separate cell

[00:00:39] Yes I sang to one and two and three

[00:00:42] If you'd only stuck together you'd not be here

[00:00:47] If you could have loved each other's lives

[00:00:50] You'd not be sitting here

[00:00:53] And if only this you could believe

[00:00:58] You still might you might still be reprieved

[00:01:11] Walking down death row

[00:01:15] I turned a corner and found to my surprise

[00:01:21] There were women there as well

[00:01:25] And babies in their arms before my eyes

[00:01:32] Walking down death row

[00:01:35] I tried again to sing of hopes that used to be

[00:01:41] But the thought of that contraption down the hall

[00:01:45] Waiting for whole families one dozen two or three

[00:01:51] If you'd only stuck together you'd not be here

[00:01:56] If you coulda loved another's child as well

[00:02:00] You'd not have to stay here

[00:02:04] And if only this you could believe

[00:02:09] You still might you might still be reprieved

[00:02:21] Walking down death row

[00:02:25] I concentrated singing to the young

[00:02:32] I sang of hopes that flickered still

[00:02:37] I tried to mouth their many separate tongues

[00:02:43] Walking down death row

[00:02:48] I sang again of life and love that still could be

[00:02:54] Singing down death row

[00:03:00] To each separate human cell one billion two or three

[00:03:06] If you'd only stick together you'd not be here

[00:03:11] If you could love another's child

[00:03:14] If you could love another's life

[00:03:17] Like your own you'd not be here

[00:03:21] And if only this you could believe

[00:03:26] You still might you might still be reprieved
