《Summer Wages(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Summer Wages (LP版) - Nanci Griffith (南西·葛瑞芬)

[00:00:17] Never hit seventeen

[00:00:22] When you play against the dealer

[00:00:26] You know that the odds

[00:00:29] Won't ride with you

[00:00:33] And never leave your woman alone

[00:00:37] With your friends around to steal her

[00:00:41] She'll be gambled and gone

[00:00:44] Like summer wages

[00:00:50] And we'll keep rollin' on

[00:00:54] 'Til we get to vancouver

[00:00:58] And the woman that I love

[00:01:01] She's living there

[00:01:05] It's been six long months

[00:01:09] And more since I've seen her

[00:01:13] Years have gambled and gone

[00:01:16] Like summer wages

[00:01:23] In all the beer parlors

[00:01:27] All down along main street

[00:01:30] The dreams of the seasons

[00:01:34] Get all spilled down on the floor

[00:01:38] All the big stands of timber

[00:01:42] Just waiting for the falling

[00:01:46] And the hookers stand and watchfully

[00:01:50] Waiting by the door

[00:01:55] So I'll work on the towboats

[00:01:59] With my slippery city shoes

[00:02:02] Which I swore I would never do again

[00:02:10] Through the the gray fog bound straits

[00:02:14] Where the cedars stand watching

[00:02:18] I'll be far off and gone

[00:02:21] Like summer wages

[00:02:44] In all the beer parlors

[00:02:48] All down along main street

[00:02:52] The dreams of the seasons

[00:02:56] Get all spilled down on the floor

[00:03:00] All the big stands of timber

[00:03:03] Just waiting for the falling

[00:03:07] And the hookers stand and watchfully

[00:03:11] Waiting by the door

[00:03:16] Never hit seventeen

[00:03:20] When you play against the dealer

[00:03:24] You know that the odds

[00:03:27] Won't ride with you

[00:03:31] And never leave your woman alone

[00:03:36] With your friends around to steal her

[00:03:39] She'll be gambled and gone

[00:03:43] Like summer wages

[00:03:48] And the years are gambled and lost

[00:03:52] Like summer wages
