《This City》歌词

[00:00:00] This City - Steve Earle (史提夫·厄尔)

[00:00:15] This city won't wash away

[00:00:19] This city won't ever drown

[00:00:22] Blood in the water and hell to pay

[00:00:25] Sky tear open and pain rain down

[00:00:29] Doesn't matter 'cause come what may

[00:00:33] I ain't ever gonna leave this town

[00:00:36] This city won't wash away

[00:00:40] This city won't ever drown

[00:00:51] Ain't the river or the wind to blame

[00:00:54] Everybody around here knows

[00:00:58] Nothin' holdin' back Ponchartrain

[00:01:01] Except for a prayer and a promise's ghost

[00:01:05] We just carry on diggin' our graves

[00:01:09] In solid marble above the ground

[00:01:11] Maybe our bones'll wash away

[00:01:15] But this city won't ever drown

[00:01:47] This city won't ever die

[00:01:51] Just as long as her heart beats strong

[00:01:54] Like a second line steppin' high

[00:01:58] Raisin' hell as we roll along

[00:02:01] Gentilly to the Vieux Carre

[00:02:05] Lower Nine Central City Uptown

[00:02:08] Singin' Jacamo fee-nah-nay

[00:02:12] This city won't ever drown

[00:02:16] Doesn't matter cause there ain't no way

[00:02:19] I'm ever gonna leave this town

[00:02:22] This city won't wash away

[00:02:25] This city won't ever drown
