《I Sold The Arabs The Moon》歌词

[00:00:00] I Sold the Arabs the Moon - David Lowery

[00:00:20] And I was the man who sold the Arabs the moon

[00:00:30] The Emirate Princes their hands manicured

[00:00:40] Their servants with luggage they followed behind

[00:00:50] The African concubines regal and tall

[00:01:00] And I was the man who sold the Arabs the moon

[00:01:09] They festooned their flags with crescent moons

[00:01:30] And I was the man who sold the English the sea

[00:01:40] They wanted the afternoon breezes it bore

[00:01:50] The sweet smell of spices from over the sea

[00:01:59] The afternoon showers it brought during tea

[00:02:09] And I was the man who sold the English the sea

[00:02:17] I cowered before great battleship guns

[00:02:48] And I was the man who sold the Yankees the sky

[00:02:58] The black of the night and the blue of the day

[00:03:07] The endless horizon of hope and desire

[00:03:17] And I was the man who sold the Yankees the sky

[00:03:25] The English the sea

[00:03:30] The Arabs the moon
