《John Lee》歌词

[00:00:00] John Lee (约翰·李) - Fairport Convention (公平港口大会)

[00:00:08] John Lee your headache's growing

[00:00:10] The cold wind's blowing

[00:00:11] But the sea's without a ripple

[00:00:17] John Lee your forehead's damp

[00:00:19] Your muscles cramp

[00:00:20] And the sea can't use a cripple

[00:00:25] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:00:29] Oh John Lee

[00:00:33] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:00:37] Oh John Lee

[00:00:41] John Lee's been made a freeman

[00:00:43] His heart's a seaman

[00:00:44] But his flesh won't make a sailor

[00:00:49] Working in a big hotel waiting for the bell

[00:00:52] That's ringing for his labour

[00:00:58] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:01:02] Oh John Lee

[00:01:06] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:01:10] Oh John Lee

[00:01:14] John Lee your chances are good

[00:01:16] You better touch wood

[00:01:17] We think things must get better

[00:01:22] John Lee you've a friend so true

[00:01:24] She wants to help you

[00:01:25] Miss Keyes has sent a letter

[00:01:30] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:01:34] Oh John Lee

[00:01:38] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:01:43] Oh John Lee

[00:01:47] "Dear John come and work the Glen

[00:01:48] Just write me when

[00:01:49] And I'll send someone to meet you"

[00:01:55] John's gone to where he started from

[00:01:57] He's not worked long just beginning to belong

[00:01:59] "It hasn't been a very good day

[00:02:01] The missus wants to halve my pay

[00:02:03] Close the door and douse the light

[00:02:05] It's quiet at night when she's tucked in tight

[00:02:07] Sometimes I feel when they're all in bed

[00:02:09] It's almost like the whole world's dead

[00:02:12] So I lay me down to sleep

[00:02:13] I pray thee Lord my soul to keep"

[00:02:19] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:02:23] Oh John Lee

[00:02:27] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:02:32] Oh John Lee

[00:02:36] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:02:40] Oh John Lee

[00:02:44] John Lee you're turning around your plate again

[00:02:48] Oh John Lee
