《Mexicali Blues (Live at Lille Fairgrounds， Lille， France 5/13/1972)》歌词

[00:03:34] Mexicali Blues(live版) - Grateful Dead

[00:03:34] Laid back in an old saloon

[00:03:34] With a peso in my hand

[00:03:34] Watching flies and children on the street

[00:03:34] And I catch a glimpse of black eyed girls

[00:03:34] Who giggle when I smile

[00:03:34] There's a little boy who

[00:03:34] Wants to shine my feet

[00:03:34] And it's three days ride from Bakersfield

[00:03:34] And I don't know why I came

[00:03:34] I guess I came to keep from paying dues

[00:03:34] So instead I've got a bottle

[00:03:34] And a girl who's just fourteen

[00:03:34] And a damn good case

[00:03:34] Of the Mexicali blues yeah

[00:03:34] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:03:34] When the devil wants to take it all away

[00:03:34] Cherish well your thoughts

[00:03:34] And keep a tight grip on your booze

[00:03:34] Cause thinking and drinking are all

[00:03:34] I have today

[00:03:34] She said her name was Billy Jean

[00:03:34] And she was fresh in town

[00:03:34] I didn't know a stage line ran from hell

[00:03:34] She had raven hair a ruffled dress

[00:03:34] A necklace made of gold

[00:03:34] All the French perfume you'd care to smell

[00:03:34] She took me up into her room

[00:03:34] And whispered in my ear

[00:03:34] Go on my friend do anything you choose

[00:03:34] Now I'm paying for those happy hours

[00:03:34] I spent there in her arms

[00:03:34] With a lifetime's worth of

[00:03:34] The Mexicali blues yeah

[00:03:34] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:03:34] When the devil wants to take it all away

[00:03:34] Cherish well your thoughts and keep

[00:03:34] A tight grip on your booze

[00:03:34] Cause thinking and drinking are

[00:03:34] All I have today

[00:03:34] And then a man rode into town

[00:03:34] Some thought he was the law

[00:03:34] Billy Jean was waiting when he came

[00:03:34] She told me he would take her if

[00:03:34] I didn't use my gun

[00:03:34] I'd have no one but myself to blame

[00:03:34] I went down to those dusty streets

[00:03:34] Blood was on my mind

[00:03:34] I guess that stranger hadn't heard the news

[00:03:34] Cause I shot first and killed him

[00:03:34] Lord he didn't even draw

[00:03:34] And he made me trade the gallows

[00:03:34] For the Mexicali blues yeah

[00:03:34] Is there anything a man don't stand to lose

[00:03:34] When he lets a woman hold him in her hands

[00:03:34] He just might find himself out there

[00:03:34] On horseback in the dark

[00:03:34] Just riding and running

[00:03:34] Across those desert sands
