《Red Cat Till I Die》歌词

[00:00:00] Red Cat Till I Die - Ry Cooder

[00:00:16] Well I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm a Red Cat through and through

[00:00:21] Now you can't turn me yellow and you can't make me blue

[00:00:26] You can't make me do things I know it's wrong to do

[00:00:31] I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm telling you

[00:00:36] Well a bunch of sneakin' deputies they came a-snooping round

[00:00:41] Then they grabbed me in the alley whilst I was laying down

[00:00:45] And then they threw me in the wagon and then they ran me in

[00:00:50] Then they locked me in the jailhouse with all my hobo friends

[00:00:55] Saying Where's that rat named Lefty

[00:00:57] And where's that frog named Tom

[00:01:00] Been agitating lately

[00:01:02] And spreading great alarm

[00:01:05] Now the cows walked out this morning

[00:01:07] And now the hens won't lay

[00:01:09] Said You're going to wreck our country

[00:01:12] And it ain't the American Way

[00:01:14] I ain't no strikebreaker and I ain't no stoolie rat

[00:01:19] Won't squeal on Tom and Lefty I won't say where they're at

[00:01:24] You can't scare me copper and I don't care what you do

[00:01:29] I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm telling you

[00:01:52] Now you think you're hard-boiled you're just yellow inside

[00:01:57] My daddy always warned me now I know he's right

[00:02:02] You're just cowards hidin' behind a little tin star

[00:02:07] And the people are starting to realize what a bunch of clowns you are

[00:02:12] Well I might have been a banker without the least excuse

[00:02:16] Now I might have been the President but tell me what's the use

[00:02:21] Might have been an FBI man but I ain't no Peepin' Tom

[00:02:26] Then I might have been a deputy and put my white sheet on

[00:02:31] But I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm a Red Cat through and through

[00:02:36] I won't fight your rich man's war and kill poor folks for you

[00:02:41] Now you can't make me do things that I know it's wrong to do

[00:02:45] I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm telling you
