《Cutting Up Rough》歌词

[00:00:00] Cuttin' Up Rough - Climax Blues Band

[00:00:48] Time had come

[00:00:49] When they had to leave

[00:00:51] Their gold plated dreams behind

[00:00:54] Decision was made to

[00:00:56] Eliminate the middle man

[00:00:59] From their side

[00:01:01] Counting for reasons unknown to him

[00:01:04] Their intentions were really good

[00:01:08] But he took it to heart

[00:01:09] And they stabbed him in the back

[00:01:11] Guess he never understood

[00:01:15] So three years on

[00:01:16] And his light came on

[00:01:18] He decided to

[00:01:20] Start cuttin' up rough

[00:01:24] Cuttin' up rough

[00:01:29] Too many fingers in

[00:01:30] Too many pies

[00:01:32] To free you from the

[00:01:33] Job at hand

[00:01:35] Empires built on false promises

[00:01:39] Sinkin' outta sight

[00:01:40] Into the quicksand

[00:01:42] Threw out a line and

[00:01:44] Tried to drag him out

[00:01:45] But he couldn't get

[00:01:46] It right you see

[00:01:49] Surrounded himself

[00:01:51] Like piggy in the middle

[00:01:52] Couldn't see the wood for the trees

[00:01:55] And now three years

[00:01:57] On when his light came on

[00:01:59] He decided to

[00:02:01] Start cuttin' up rough

[00:02:05] Tryin' on the tough stuff

[00:02:50] Well morning came 'round

[00:02:51] Down in London town

[00:02:53] Like the showdown at the OK Corral

[00:02:57] He had all the ammunition

[00:02:59] And made the decision

[00:03:00] To upset the boys' morale

[00:03:04] His mouthpiece was slick

[00:03:05] And the lies were coming quick

[00:03:07] But they stood together

[00:03:08] On shaky ground

[00:03:10] He'll pay the cost 'cause he really lost

[00:03:14] No thanks to him

[00:03:15] They'd still be around

[00:03:17] And in three years from now

[00:03:18] He may need 'em somehow

[00:03:20] But they'll never never never ever stop

[00:03:23] Cuttin' up rough

[00:03:27] Trying on the tough stuff
