《Hannibal， MO》歌词

[00:00:00] Hannibal, MO - Dolorean

[00:00:01] Written by：Alex Trevor James

[00:00:16] I had a true love from hannibal

[00:00:25] Where the Mississippi turns flat and wide

[00:00:33] We'd lay out on the sandbars

[00:00:37] And fall

[00:00:42] And fall asleep to the barges and the fireflies

[00:00:53] And I killed my true love from hannibal

[00:01:01] She was nineteen and I was twenty two

[00:01:09] Summer was ending and she was leaving soon

[00:01:18] To study writing on the east coast

[00:01:29] And I worked in my father's shop

[00:01:38] Fixing air conditioners and heating pumps

[00:01:46] Going to college never made much sense to me

[00:01:54] I wanted to keep my true love close to me

[00:02:06] The summers are hot in hannibal

[00:02:14] The summers there are unbearable

[00:02:23] So we'd steal down to the water's edge

[00:02:31] And cool off in the river's ebb

[00:02:42] One night we decided what we would do

[00:02:50] Swim to the middle til our strength gave out

[00:02:59] Where the current was strong and deep

[00:03:07] Together we'd be pulled down to sleep

[00:03:18] So we swam til our bodies were weak

[00:03:26] I watched my true love get washed out to sea

[00:03:35] I felt a terrible grip from beneath

[00:03:43] The river took her but it didn't take me

[00:04:26] In St. Louis there's a prison cell

[00:04:34] Be twelve more years til I get out

[00:04:42] When I do her father says he'll shoot me down

[00:04:50] If I don't do it myself

[00:05:01] Most days I just try and sleep

[00:05:09] I dream of hannibal when it was in between

[00:05:17] It's not quite day and it's not yet night

[00:05:25] We fall asleep to the barges and the fireflies
