《Blind Willie Mctell [Live At Wdst]》歌词

[00:00:00] Blind Willie Mctell [Live At Wdst

[00:00:15] Seen the arrow on the door post

[00:00:21] Saying this land is condemned

[00:00:26] All the way

[00:00:29] From New Orleans to Jerusalem

[00:00:38] I traveled through East Texas

[00:00:45] Where many martyrs fell

[00:00:49] And I know one thing nobody can sing

[00:00:54] Them blues like blind Willie McTell

[00:01:01] Well I heard the hoot-owl singing

[00:01:08] As they were taking down the tents

[00:01:13] All the barren trees the stars above

[00:01:19] Were his only audience

[00:01:25] Yeah them charcoal gypsy maidens

[00:01:31] Can strut their feathers well

[00:01:36] And I know one thing nobody can sing

[00:01:41] Them blues like blind Willie McTell

[00:02:01] See them big plantations a-burning

[00:02:07] Can't you hear the cracking of the whips

[00:02:13] Smell that sweet magnolia blossom blooming

[00:02:19] See the ghosts of the slavery ships

[00:02:25] Well I can hear them tribes a-moanin'

[00:02:31] I can hear the undertaker's bell

[00:02:37] And I know one thing nobody can sing

[00:02:42] Them blues like blind Willie McTell

[00:02:49] There's a woman she's standing by the river

[00:02:55] She is with some fine young handsome man

[00:03:01] See he's all dressed just like a squire

[00:03:06] He's got bootleg whiskey in his hand

[00:03:14] Yeah there's a chain-gang out on the highway

[00:03:20] And I can hear them rebels yell

[00:03:25] And I know one thing nobody can sing

[00:03:30] Them blues like blind Willie McTell

[00:03:51] God oh God is in Heaven

[00:03:56] And we all want what is His

[00:04:02] But the power and greed the corruptible seed

[00:04:07] Seems to be all that there is

[00:04:14] I'm a-gazing out the window

[00:04:21] Of the St James Hotel

[00:04:26] And I know one thing nobody can sing

[00:04:31] Them blues like blind Willie McTell

[00:04:36] I know one thing nobody can sing

[00:04:41] Them blues like blind Willie McTell
