《The Lady in Black (LP版)》歌词

[00:00:01] The Lady In Black (LP Version)-Fats Domino

[00:00:04] She came to me one morning, one lonely Sunday morning,

[00:00:09] her long hair flowing in the mid-winter wind.

[00:00:13] I know not how she found me, for in darkness I was walking,

[00:00:21] and destruction lay around me from a fight I could not win.

[00:00:25] She asked me name my foe then. I said the need within some men

[00:00:29] to fight and kill their brothers without thought of men or god.

[00:00:33] And I begged her give me horses to trample down my enemies,

[00:00:44] so eager was my passion to devour this waste of life.

[00:00:47] But she would not think of battle that reduces men to animals,

[00:00:50] so easy to begin and yet impossible to end.

[00:00:54] For she the mother of all men had counciled me so wisely that

[00:00:58] I feared to walk alone again and asked if she would stay.

[00:01:09] "Oh lady lend your hand,"I cried, "Oh let me rest here at your side."

[00:01:39] "Have faith and trust in me,"she said and filled my heart with life.

[00:01:44] There is no strength in numbers. I've no such misconceptions.

[00:01:48] But when you need me be assured I won't be far away.

[00:01:52] Thus having spoke she turned away and though I found no words to say

[00:01:58] I stood and watched until I saw her black cloak disappear.

[00:02:05] My labor is no easier, but now I know I'm not alone.

[00:02:09] I find new heart each time I think upon that windy day.

[00:02:13] And if one day she comes to you drink deeply from her words so wise.

[00:02:17] Take courage from her as your prize and say hello for me.
