《Mr. Jones》歌词

[00:00:01] Mr. Jones - The Mavericks

[00:00:02] Written by：Raul Malo

[00:00:06] I wanna go across the river

[00:00:08] To the house on oldway road

[00:00:11] Where my life began and ended all the same

[00:00:16] I remember chris and johnny

[00:00:19] Childhood friends of mine

[00:00:21] Who grew wise enough

[00:00:23] Learn to play the game

[00:00:27] As I walked up to the front yard

[00:00:29] There were children playing there

[00:00:32] And I thought someday this

[00:00:33] May be my home again

[00:00:37] But how soon I learned my lesson

[00:00:40] Through the windows they threw stones

[00:00:42] And said there's nothing

[00:00:43] Left inside Mr Jones

[00:00:48] I went next door to ask the neighbor

[00:00:50] If they knew what happened here

[00:00:53] To the place where all my memories remain

[00:00:57] As they recalled and tried to answer

[00:01:01] Tears rolled down their eyes

[00:01:03] But the best reply they had was made in vain

[00:01:08] Seems the folks that used to live there

[00:01:11] Worked hard for all their means

[00:01:13] But their means could never take them to an end

[00:01:19] There was hope down in the city

[00:01:21] Then a bank declined their loan

[00:01:23] Now there's nothing left inside Mr Jones

[00:01:29] Can't you see that it's empty now

[00:01:32] And no one really cares

[00:01:34] For even I must try to save my own

[00:01:39] You should turn around and get back on that

[00:01:42] Lonely oldway road

[00:01:44] 'Cause there's nothing left inside Mr Jones

[00:02:30] Can't you see that it's empty now

[00:02:33] And no one really cares

[00:02:35] For even I must try to save my own

[00:02:40] You should turn around and get back on that

[00:02:43] Lonely oldway road

[00:02:45] 'Cause there's nothing left inside Mr Jones

[00:02:50] Going back across the river

[00:02:53] To see if I can find

[00:02:55] The place where life can start and end all the same

[00:03:00] But no matter where I'm going it will dwell inside my bones

[00:03:05] That there's nothing left inside Mr Jones

[00:03:11] No there's nothing left inside Mr Jones

[00:03:16] No there's nothing left inside Mr Jones
