《A Gal In Calico (Live At The Spotlight Club/1958)》歌词

[00:00:00] 5 Chinese Brothers

[00:01:35] Stone Soup

[00:01:35] Like A Mole In The Ground

[00:01:37] Like a Mole in the Ground

[00:01:38] Tom Meltzer

[00:01:38] Based on Bascom Lunsford's Mole in the Ground

[00:01:39] I wish that I was a mole in the ground

[00:01:43] Like a mole in the ground I would root that mountain down

[00:01:44] Tree by tree and town by town

[00:02:19] I wish I was a mole in the ground

[00:02:24] And I wish that I was a lizard in the spring

[00:02:29] Like a lizard in the spring I would hear the robin sing

[00:02:30] I'd feast upon the robin's eggs and I'd not regret a thing

[00:02:51] I wish I was a lizard in the spring

[00:03:33] But I'm just a man who loves a woman who's drifting away

[00:03:34] The miles and miles between us grow wider every day

[00:03:37] I wish that I was strong or free or not in love or dead

[00:03:42] Better still I wish I was a mole in the ground

[00:03:43] I don't like working for the railroad man

[00:03:45] For the railroad will kill you just as fast as it can

[00:03:46] It drinks your blood like wine and throws your bones to the wind

[00:03:47] I don't like working for the railroad man

[00:04:07] And Tempy oh Tempy wants a 100 shawl

[00:04:07] But I got 90 90 that is all

[00:04:08] Our house is not a home it's just a roof and four walls

[00:04:10] But Tempy wants a 100 shawl

[00:04:13] Tempy oh Tempy let your hair hang low

[00:04:14] Let your hair hang low while I rosin up my bow

[00:04:15] We'll pretend we are lovers like we were so long ago

[00:04:16] Tempy let your hair hang low

[00:04:16] I wish I was a mole in the ground etc

[00:04:39] Don't wait up for me 'cause tonight I think I'm going downtown
