《San Francisco Mable Joy》歌词

[00:00:00] San Francisco Mable Joy - David Allan Coe

[00:00:00] My daddy was an honest man

[00:00:05] Just a redneck Georgia farm boy

[00:00:12] My momma spent her short life

[00:00:15] Raisin' kids and bailin' hay

[00:00:22] And I was just fifteen when

[00:00:25] I ached inside to wonder

[00:00:30] So I hoped a freight in

[00:00:31] Waycross and I rode it to L A

[00:00:39] Well I met a girl known on the strip as

[00:00:43] San Francisco's Maybel Joy

[00:00:48] Destitutions child born on a L A

[00:00:52] Street called Shane

[00:00:57] And sleep came and left this little

[00:01:01] Waycross Georgia country boy

[00:01:05] Maybel Joy was gone Lord

[00:01:08] I'd never see her again

[00:01:14] Growin' up came quietly in the arms of Maybel Joy

[00:01:24] Laughter found our morning's

[00:01:27] Brought new meaning to my life

[00:01:33] I woke up one day

[00:01:34] Lord to find that I was by myself

[00:01:43] With dreams of

[00:01:43] Georgia cotton and California wine

[00:01:51] Sunday mornin' found me standin'

[00:01:54] 'Neath the red-light of her door

[00:02:01] Right 'cross sent me reelin'

[00:02:05] Laid me face down on the floor

[00:02:10] In place of Maybel Joy

[00:02:13] I found a merchant mad marine

[00:02:20] Who said "Your Georgia neck is

[00:02:21] Red but son you're still green"

[00:02:30] Well I turned twenty

[00:02:30] One in gray rock federal prison

[00:02:38] The judge he had no mercy on this

[00:02:42] Waycross Georgia boy

[00:02:47] Sometimes at night in silence

[00:02:52] Lord I'd listen

[00:02:56] That same old freight to

[00:02:57] Take me back to Maybel Joy

[00:03:04] Cold nights had no pity on this

[00:03:08] Waycross Georgia farm boy

[00:03:14] Springtime turned to summer

[00:03:18] And then the winter came

[00:03:23] Starin' at those four gray

[00:03:25] Walls in silence Lord I'd listen

[00:03:32] Somewhere in the distance to

[00:03:35] The whistle of the train

[00:03:40] Sunday morning found me lying

[00:03:44] 'Neath the red light of her door

[00:03:50] With a bullet in my side I cried

[00:03:54] "Have you seen Maybel Joy "

[00:04:00] Stunned and shaken someone said

[00:04:03] "Son she don't live here no more"

[00:04:09] She left this town ten years ago

[00:04:13] I heard she's looking for

[00:04:20] Some Georgia farm boy"
