《Mexican Home》歌词

[00:00:00] Mexican Home - Josh Ritter

[00:00:03] Last night it got so hot I swear

[00:00:07] Couldn't hardly breathe

[00:00:09] And heat lightning burnt the sky

[00:00:12] Like alcohol

[00:00:15] I sat on the porch without my shoes

[00:00:18] And I watched the cars roll by

[00:00:21] As the headlights raced

[00:00:23] To the corner of the kitchen wall

[00:00:28] Mama dear your boy is here

[00:00:31] Far across the sea

[00:00:34] Looking for that sacred core

[00:00:36] That burns inside of me

[00:00:39] And I feel the storm

[00:00:41] It's wet and warm

[00:00:43] Not ten miles away

[00:00:46] Approaching my Mexican home

[00:00:52] Oh my god I cried it's so hot inside

[00:00:55] You could die in your living room

[00:00:58] Take the fan from the window

[00:01:00] Prop the door back with a broom

[00:01:04] The cuckoo clock has died of shock

[00:01:07] And the windows feel no pane

[00:01:10] The air's as as still

[00:01:12] As the throttle of a funeral train

[00:01:17] Mama dear your boy is here

[00:01:20] Far across the sea

[00:01:24] Looking for that sacred core

[00:01:26] That burns inside of me

[00:01:29] And I feel the storm

[00:01:31] It's wet and warm

[00:01:32] Not ten miles away

[00:01:36] Approaching my Mexican home

[00:02:05] And my father died on the porch outside

[00:02:09] Was an august afternoon

[00:02:11] I drank bourbon and cried

[00:02:13] With a friend by the light and the moon

[00:02:17] So it's hurry hurry step right up

[00:02:21] It's a matter of life or death

[00:02:24] Oh the sun is going down

[00:02:25] And the moon is just holding its breath

[00:02:33] Mama dear your boy is here

[00:02:36] Far across the sea

[00:02:39] Looking for that sacred core

[00:02:42] That burns inside of me

[00:02:44] And I feel a storm

[00:02:46] And it's wet and warm

[00:02:47] Not ten miles away

[00:02:51] Approaching my Mexican home

[00:02:57] Approaching my Mexican home

[00:03:03] Approaching my Mexican home
