《Not So Sweet Martha Lorraine》歌词

[00:00:00] Not So Sweet Martha Lorraine - Country Joe & The Fish

[00:00:18] She hides in an attic concealed on a shelf

[00:00:26] Behind volumes of literature based on herself

[00:00:35] And runs across the pages like some tiny elf

[00:00:40] Knowing that it's hard to find

[00:00:44] Stuff way back in her mind

[00:00:49] Winds up spending all of her time

[00:00:53] Trying to memorize every line

[00:00:57] Sweet Lorraine ah sweet Lorraine

[00:01:06] Sweet lady of death wants me to die

[00:01:14] So she can come sit by my bedside and sigh

[00:01:23] And wipe away the tears from all my friends eyes

[00:01:28] Then softly she will explain

[00:01:31] Just exactly who was to blame

[00:01:36] For causing me to go insane

[00:01:41] And finally blow out my brain

[00:01:44] Sweet Lorraine ah sweet Lorraine

[00:01:53] Well you know that it's a shame and a pity

[00:01:57] You were raised up in the city

[00:02:01] And you never learned nothing about country ways

[00:02:09] Ah about country ways

[00:02:15] The joy of life she dresses in black

[00:02:23] With celestial secrets engraved in her back

[00:02:32] And her face keeps flashing that she's got the knack

[00:02:36] But you know when you look into her eyes

[00:02:41] All she's learned she's had to memorize

[00:02:45] And the only way you'll ever get her high

[00:02:49] Is to let her do her thing and then watch you die

[00:02:53] Sweet Lorraine ah sweet Lorraine

[00:03:03] Now she's the one who gives us all those magical things

[00:03:12] And reads us stories out of the I Ching

[00:03:20] Then she passes out a whole new basket of rings

[00:03:26] That when you put on your hand

[00:03:29] Makes you one of the Angel Band

[00:03:34] And gives you the power to be a man

[00:03:38] But what it does for her you never quite understand

[00:03:42] Sweet Lorraine ah sweet Lorraine

[00:03:51] Well you know that it's a shame and a pity

[00:03:55] You were raised up in the city

[00:03:59] And you never learned nothing about country ways

[00:04:06] Oh about country ways oh about country ways

[00:04:15] Yeah about country ways
