《This Shirt(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] This Shirt - Mary Chapin Carpenter (玛丽翠萍·卡本特)

[00:00:12] This shirt is old and faded

[00:00:15] All the color's washed away

[00:00:17] I've had it now for more damn years

[00:00:20] Than I can count anyway

[00:00:23] I wear it beneath my jacket

[00:00:26] With the collar turned up high

[00:00:29] So old I should replace it

[00:00:32] But I'm not about to try

[00:00:40] This shirt's got silver buttons

[00:00:43] And a place upon the sleeve

[00:00:46] Where I used to set my heart up

[00:00:49] Right there anyone could see

[00:00:52] This shirt is the one

[00:00:54] I wore to every boring high school dance

[00:00:58] Where the boys ignored the girls

[00:01:00] And we all pretended to like the band

[00:01:10] This shirt was a pillow for my head

[00:01:13] On a train through Italy

[00:01:15] This shirt was a blanket beneath the love

[00:01:19] We made in argeles

[00:01:21] This shirt was lost for three whole days

[00:01:24] In a town near buffalo

[00:01:27] 'Till I found the locker key

[00:01:30] In a downtown trailways bus depot

[00:01:45] This shirt was the one I lent you

[00:01:48] And when you gave it back

[00:01:51] There was a rip inside the sleeve

[00:01:54] Where you rolled your cigarettes

[00:01:57] It was the place I put my heart

[00:01:59] Now look at where you put a tear

[00:02:03] I forgave your thoughtlessness

[00:02:05] But not the boy who put it there

[00:02:09] This shirt was the place your cat

[00:02:11] Decided to give birth to five

[00:02:14] And we stayed up all night watching

[00:02:17] And we wept when the last one died

[00:02:21] This shirt is just an old faded piece of cotton

[00:02:26] Shining like the memories

[00:02:29] Inside those silver buttons

[00:02:44] This shirt is a grand old relic

[00:02:47] With a grand old history

[00:02:50] I wear it now for Sunday chores

[00:02:53] Cleaning house and raking leaves

[00:02:56] I wear it beneath my jacket

[00:02:59] With the collar turned up high

[00:03:02] So old I should replace it

[00:03:05] But I'm not about to try
