《Sweet Potato Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Playing With The Strings-Lonnie Johnson

[00:00:08] It's raining and storming on the sea, we're miles and miles from shore.

[00:00:19] It's raining and storming on the sea, we're miles and miles from shore.

[00:00:29] The way the waves is rockin' this ship, we won't see home no more.

[00:00:39] The wind is so strong, turnin' this old ship 'round and 'round.

[00:00:49] This wind is so strong, turnin' this old ship 'round and 'round.

[00:00:58] Something tells me, won't be long before we're sinkin' down.

[00:01:08] The captain say, "Get your life saver, fasten them around your waist."

[00:01:18] Captain say, "Get your life saver, and fasten them around your waist."

[00:01:28] "Because we're sinkin' down, and the life boat is your safest place."

[00:01:37] And we floated all night long in the storm, lost miles and miles from shore.

[00:01:47] And the water was freezin', and the rain began to pour.

[00:01:57] I say, "Girls and boys, let's pray, 'cause we won't see home no more."

[00:02:35] Uncle Sam's ship was comin', painted in red, white, and blue.

[00:02:45] Uncle Sam's ship was comin', painted in red, white, and blue.

[00:02:54] We say we live in New York City, red and white, blue brought us all the way through.
