《Boomtown》歌词

[00:00:00] Boomtown (新兴都市) - Richard Thompson

[00:00:00] Well I'm a poor boy from wabash they call me

[00:00:04] Oil trash

[00:00:05] I've rubber necked and rousted around

[00:00:09] And every damn job the boss he says hoss

[00:00:13] It ain't worth pumping from the ground

[00:00:17] So I come here to boomtown doing just fine

[00:00:21] Till the sh*t hits the fan alright

[00:00:25] Now I can't get no pay and I'm wasting away

[00:00:30] Flushed out and busted in boomtown tonight

[00:00:35] My baby she's mad she thinks I'm all bad

[00:00:39] She'd like to see me work myself to death

[00:00:42] She said go out and get yourself another damn job

[00:00:47] I said honey just save your breath

[00:00:51] Oh that sweet little thing she threw back my ring

[00:00:55] I bet she held it up to the light

[00:00:59] Now the kids are all yakking my baby she's packing

[00:01:04] Flushed out and busted in boomtown tonight

[00:01:43] Oh boomtown is busted the rigs are all rusted

[00:01:47] There's no lights on my christmas tree

[00:01:51] Well I tried el paso and I tried amarillo

[00:01:55] But I didn't find a drop of Texas tea

[00:01:59] Well they hit us when we're down and we can't

[00:02:02] Get up

[00:02:03] Though we're trying with all of our might

[00:02:08] Now the bottle's run dry and I'm wondering why

[00:02:12] Flushed out and busted in boomtown tonight

[00:02:17] Yes I'm flushed out and busted in boomtown tonight
