《Yankee Lady》歌词

[00:00:01] Yankee Lady - Jesse Winchester

[00:00:11] I lived with the decent folks

[00:00:13] In the hills of old Vermont

[00:00:19] Where what you do all day

[00:00:22] Depends on what you want

[00:00:26] And I took up with a woman there

[00:00:31] Though I was still a kid

[00:00:36] And I smile like the sun

[00:00:39] To think of the loving that we did

[00:00:47] She rose each morning and went to work

[00:00:50] And she kept me with her pay

[00:00:56] I was making sweet love all night

[00:00:59] And playing guitar all day

[00:01:03] And I got apple cider and homemade bread

[00:01:09] To make a man say grace

[00:01:13] And clean linens on my bed

[00:01:18] And a warm feet fire place

[00:01:25] Yankee lady so good to me

[00:01:30] Yankee lady just a memory

[00:01:34] Yankee lady you are so good to me

[00:01:39] Your memory that's enough for me

[00:01:46] An autumn walk on a country road

[00:01:49] And a million flaming trees

[00:01:53] I was feeling uneasy

[00:01:58] Cause there was winter in the breeze

[00:02:02] And she said Oh Jesse look over there

[00:02:08] The birds are southward bound

[00:02:13] Oh Jesse I'm so afraid

[00:02:16] To lose the love that we've found

[00:02:24] Yankee lady so good to me

[00:02:28] Yankee lady just a memory

[00:02:31] Yankee lady so good to me

[00:02:37] Your memory that's enough for me

[00:02:54] I don't know what called to me

[00:02:57] But I know that I had to go

[00:03:02] I left that Vermont town

[00:03:06] With a lift to Mexico

[00:03:08] And now when I see myself

[00:03:15] As a stranger by my birth

[00:03:20] The Yankee lady's memory

[00:03:24] Reminds me of my worth

[00:03:32] Yankee lady so good to me

[00:03:36] Yankee lady just a memory

[00:03:40] Yankee lady so good to me

[00:03:45] Your memory that's enough for me
