《Cowboy Junkies Lament》歌词

[00:00:00] By townes van zandt

[00:00:15] Baby hit the back door breathin' real heavy

[00:00:18] Said the boys in the alley wouldn't leave her alone

[00:00:22] Mama did her make up in a terrible hurry

[00:00:25] She finally got ready but the boys were gone

[00:00:28] Mama don't you worry night's aproachin'

[00:00:31] There's a hole in heaven where some sin slips through

[00:00:35] Close your eyes and dream real steady

[00:00:38] Maybe just a little will spill on you

[00:00:42] The dark don't lie

[00:00:46] And dreams come true

[00:00:50] Could be a few will see you through

[00:00:56] Old lady rose lookin' down her nose

[00:00:59] At lonely miss lily hiding in the hall

[00:01:03] Lily's just praying for the trial to be over

[00:01:06] Rosy's just waitin' for the ax to fall

[00:01:09] Show me off on the way to town

[00:01:12] The sky's still shiny and the earth's still brown

[00:01:16] Tell the judge I'm ready for the vases

[00:01:19] Gonna dance in their faces

[00:01:20] When the guitar sounds

[00:01:24] It won't be long

[00:01:27] I won't be gone

[00:01:31] I've been leaning toward the shadows all along

[00:02:05] Those in the know say how it goes

[00:02:08] You plan on reapin' you better sow

[00:02:11] You plan on sleepin' you better keep movin'

[00:02:14] Sleepin ain't allowed around here you know

[00:02:18] Tell me please when the rollin's over

[00:02:21] Me and my baby gonna have some fun

[00:02:24] Bury our backs in a bed of clover

[00:02:27] Smile in style while the sun goes down

[00:02:32] Snake eyes cry

[00:02:34] And boxcars sigh

[00:02:40] Seven's stuck in the middle just wonderin' why

[00:02:45] The dark don't lie

[00:02:48] And dreams come true

[00:02:52] All it takes is one or two

[00:02:58] Maybe just a few will see you through

[00:03:04] Maybe just b few will see you throagh
