《Shore Leave》歌词

[00:00:00] Shore Leave - Tom Waits (汤姆·威兹)

[00:00:33] Well with buck shot eyes and a purple heart

[00:00:37] I rolled down the national stroll

[00:00:41] And with a big fat paycheck

[00:00:43] Strapped to my hip sack

[00:00:45] And a shore leave wristwatch underneath

[00:00:47] My sleeve

[00:00:50] In a Hong Kong drizzle on Cuban heels

[00:00:53] I rowed down the gutter to the Blood Bank

[00:00:59] And I'd left all my papers on the Ticonderoga

[00:01:01] And was in a bad need of a shave

[00:01:08] And so I slopped at the corner on cold chow mein

[00:01:11] And shot billards with a midget

[00:01:13] Until the rain stopped

[00:01:16] And I bought a long sleeved shirt

[00:01:18] With horses on the front

[00:01:20] And some gum and a lighter and a knife

[00:01:22] And a new deck of cards (with girls on the back)

[00:01:26] And I sat down and wrote a letter to my wife

[00:01:29] And I said Baby I'm so far away from home

[00:01:39] And I miss my Baby so

[00:01:45] I can't make it by myself

[00:01:49] I love you so

[00:01:56] Well I was pacing myself

[00:01:57] Trying to make it all last

[00:02:01] Squeezing all the life

[00:02:02] Out of a lousy two day pass

[00:02:05] And I had a cold one at the Dragon

[00:02:07] With some Filipino floor show

[00:02:11] And talked baseball with a lieutenant

[00:02:13] Over a Singapore sling

[00:02:15] And I wondered how the same moon outside

[00:02:18] Over this Chinatown fair

[00:02:19] Could look down on Illinois

[00:02:23] And find you there

[00:02:25] And you know I love you Baby

[00:02:28] And I'm so far away from home

[00:02:32] And I miss my Baby so

[00:02:39] I can't make it by myself

[00:02:45] I love you so

[00:03:24] Shore Leave
