《What We’re Taking Here Tonight》歌词

[00:00:00] Ninety-Nine - Bill Anderson (比尔·安德森)

[00:00:01] Written by：Bill Anderson

[00:00:08] My mama always told me better

[00:00:12] Than to play with a loaded gun

[00:00:15] If I'd have just listened to her she'd have

[00:00:17] Never had a prisoner for a son

[00:00:21] The picture's still in front of my eyes

[00:00:24] The echo in my ears

[00:00:27] When the jury said he's guilty

[00:00:30] And the judge said ninety nine years

[00:00:33] Oh for ninety nine years I'll watch

[00:00:36] The sunrise over that some old sea

[00:00:40] Ninety nine years nothing but

[00:00:42] An empty cell for company

[00:00:46] Yet there's not very much that stands between

[00:00:49] Me and the freedom I hold dear

[00:00:52] Just a thousand bars a big brick wall

[00:00:56] And a sentence of ninety nine years

[00:01:00] I kissed my darling on her tender lips

[00:01:03] And they took me by the hand

[00:01:06] I had a nice little ride on a ferry boat

[00:01:10] To the rock where the prison stands

[00:01:13] The warden said as he locked the door

[00:01:16] I hope you'll like it here

[00:01:19] Just make yourself a home

[00:01:22] You're gonna be with us ninety nine years

[00:01:27] I've almost forgotten what my real name is

[00:01:30] Been a number for so long

[00:01:33] Making little bitty rocks out of great big rocks

[00:01:37] Gets old as the days wear on

[00:01:40] But I'll do my best for ninety nine years

[00:01:43] Just try to stay alive

[00:01:46] 'Cause the governor said if I'd be good

[00:01:49] I'd get out in ninety five

[00:01:52] Oh for ninety nine years I'll watch

[00:01:55] The sunrise over that some old sea

[00:01:59] Ninety nine years nothing but

[00:02:02] An empty cell for company

[00:02:05] Yet there's not very much that stands between

[00:02:08] Me and the freedom I hold dear

[00:02:12] Just a thousand bars a big brick wall

[00:02:15] And a sentence of ninety nine years
