《Wrote A Song For Everyone》歌词

[00:00:00] Wrote A Song For Everyone - Mavis Staples (玛维丝·史黛波)

[00:00:07] Met myself a comin' county welfare line

[00:00:14] I was feelin' strung out hung out on the line

[00:00:21] Saw myself a goin' down to war in june

[00:00:27] What I want what I want is to write myself a tune

[00:00:35] Wrote a song for everyone

[00:00:38] Wrote a song for truth

[00:00:41] Wrote a song for everyone

[00:00:46] And I couldn't leave it up to you

[00:00:51] Got myself arrested wound me up in jail

[00:00:58] Richmond 'bout to blow up communication failed

[00:01:05] If you see the answer now's the time to say

[00:01:11] What I want all I want is get you down to pray

[00:01:18] I wrote a song for everyone

[00:01:22] Wrote a song for truth

[00:01:25] Wrote a song for everyone

[00:01:30] And I couldn't even talk to you

[00:01:58] I wrote a song for everyone

[00:02:03] Wrote a song for truth

[00:02:06] Wrote a song for everyone

[00:02:10] And I couldn't even talk to you

[00:02:16] Saw the people a standin' thousand years in chains

[00:02:23] Somebody said it's different now

[00:02:26] Look it's just the same

[00:02:30] Pharaohs spins the message 'round

[00:02:33] And 'round the truth

[00:02:36] They could have saved a million people

[00:02:39] How can I tell you

[00:02:42] Well I wrote a song for everyone

[00:02:47] Wrote a song for truth

[00:02:50] Wrote a song for everyone

[00:02:54] And I couldn't even talk to you

[00:02:58] Wrote a song for everyone

[00:03:02] Wrote a song for truth

[00:03:06] Wrote a song for everyone

[00:03:10] And I couldn't even talk to you

[00:03:14] Wrote a song for everyone

[00:03:17] Wrote a song for truth

[00:03:21] Wrote a song for everyone

[00:03:25] And I couldn't even talk to you
