《Tight To The Jar》歌词

[00:00:00] Tight To The Jar - Kelly Joe Phelps

[00:00:35] It's a ditch okay

[00:00:37] I have shoes and a blanket

[00:00:41] My head resting light on a stone

[00:00:46] Though it's hard it's still rounded with a pocket for Brains

[00:00:51] Or what goes for in halls under roof tile

[00:01:00] We'll sing another blistering ballad for grandma

[00:01:06] Melody sweet till it rolls out the ears

[00:01:12] And the beer flows free as advice

[00:01:21] With a tight hand holding the jar

[00:01:27] With a tight hand holding the jar

[00:01:45] The mud cakes my chin strap

[00:01:48] Fills up my cuffs

[00:01:50] As I plod now from creek edge to street side

[00:01:55] As it dries I can whittle it little by little

[00:02:01] Hey look now I'm light as a bee

[00:02:09] Those gray clouds mean nothing to one such as I

[00:02:15] Though shadows stand tall as some school master whack

[00:02:22] On the back of a well intentioned quiet kid

[00:02:30] Arms held fast to the jar

[00:02:36] Arms held fast to the jar

[00:02:41] And it's slow

[00:02:45] Slow the idea

[00:02:48] The coming around of a sensible word

[00:02:53] It hovers and shakes like a hummingbird wing

[00:03:02] At the end of a long hot year

[00:03:07] At the end of a long hot year

[00:03:24] Fry up that supper

[00:03:27] We'll kill it for breakfast

[00:03:30] Turn the table down side and crazy

[00:03:36] With the legs up

[00:03:37] The women up

[00:03:39] The men up to Church for the spirit

[00:03:42] The hen yard the bent steel Tack wrap

[00:03:50] It's a ditch yeah I know that

[00:03:53] And I do wonder

[00:03:56] How that bright faced

[00:03:58] Ten year old me of a boy

[00:04:03] Found the road out I never could see

[00:04:11] With my eyes held tight to the jar

[00:04:17] My eyes held tight to the jar

[00:04:22] And it's slow

[00:04:26] Slow the idea

[00:04:29] The coming around of a sensible word

[00:04:35] It hovers and shakes like a hummingbird wing

[00:04:43] At the end of a long hot year

[00:04:50] At the end of a long hot year

[00:05:00] At the end of a long hot year
