《Slow Country Dance(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Slow Country Dance - Mary Chapin Carpenter (玛丽翠萍·卡本特)

[00:00:09] Out on the floor

[00:00:12] The couples

[00:00:14] Are swing

[00:00:15] To one faded Love on the jukebox tonight

[00:00:22] You slide in your coins

[00:00:25] And the music keeps playing

[00:00:28] A slow country dance

[00:00:32] On a Saturday night

[00:00:37] Sweethearts in love

[00:00:40] And others just lonely

[00:00:44] Searching for someone to waltz with tonight

[00:00:50] In a smoky old bar you know that it's only

[00:00:57] A slow country dance

[00:01:00] On a Saturday night

[00:01:05] And loves never easy or ever as true

[00:01:11] When the changing of partners

[00:01:15] Is no longer new

[00:01:20] You lead with your heart and closing your eyes

[00:01:26] Dance just to dance

[00:01:30] In three quarter time

[00:01:42] Down at the bar a woman tells stories

[00:01:48] Batting her eyes to someone not there

[00:01:55] Her class is half full or maybe half empty

[00:02:01] Like the jokes told about her

[00:02:04] When they think she can't hear

[00:02:09] And now the perfume is cheap and the make up is careless

[00:02:16] And the dress out of fashion for a woman her age

[00:02:23] But she don't give a d**n for those who would cherish

[00:02:29] A much lighter step and a much younger face

[00:02:38] And loves never easy or ever as true

[00:02:44] When the changing of partners

[00:02:47] Is no longer new

[00:02:52] You lead with your heart and closing your eyes

[00:02:59] Dance just to dance

[00:03:02] In three quarter time

[00:03:36] Out on the floor

[00:03:39] The couples

[00:03:40] Are swing

[00:03:42] To one faded Love

[00:03:46] On the jukebox tonight
