《Way Out West》歌词

[00:00:00] Way Out West (走出西方) - Andrew Bird (Andrew Wegman Bird)

[00:00:12] Elder Green is dead and gone

[00:00:16] Lost his way going to town

[00:00:21] Don't know who he is or what he's done

[00:00:26] But it sure sounds sweet rolling off the tongue

[00:00:29] Yeah it sure sounds sweet rolling off the tongue

[00:01:07] If I was in an old hotel

[00:01:11] That happened to be on fire

[00:01:15] Maybe I'd jump or

[00:01:16] Maybe I'd reconsider

[00:01:18] Then I'd climb a little higher

[00:01:22] Like an oily rag

[00:01:23] In a dusty corner

[00:01:25] Like a box of matches near an open flame

[00:01:28] I'd jump 18 stories from a burning fire

[00:01:33] Sooner than I'd face this world of shame

[00:01:36] Yeah I'd skip this town and

[00:01:37] Jump a westbound train

[00:01:40] Take these fingerlings from my fingers

[00:01:44] Spoken with your breath

[00:01:47] With white-washed eyes

[00:01:49] And flies that linger

[00:01:51] Seems rather forlorn and bereft

[00:01:54] I said where you goin' with that sack on your shoulder Willie

[00:01:59] As if I couldn't have guessed

[00:02:01] He says I'm gonna get the hell

[00:02:03] Out of Slag Valley and take a little stroll way out west

[00:02:08] I said where you goin' with that sack on your shoulder Willie

[00:02:12] Oh you know

[00:02:45] If I was in an old hotel

[00:02:49] That happened to be on fire

[00:02:52] Maybe I'd jump or

[00:02:54] Maybe I'd reconsider

[00:02:56] Then I'd climb a little higher

[00:02:59] Like an oily rag

[00:03:01] In a dusty corner

[00:03:03] Like a box of matches near an open flame

[00:03:06] I'd get so far away

[00:03:08] From that old matchbox hotel

[00:03:10] Man I'd skip this town and

[00:03:11] Jump a westbound train

[00:03:13] Anything to get away from this shame

[00:03:17] Take these fingerlings from my fingers

[00:03:22] Spoken with your breath

[00:03:25] White-washed eyes

[00:03:27] And flies that linger

[00:03:29] Seems rather forlorn and bereft

[00:03:32] I said where you goin' with that sack on your shoulder Willie

[00:03:36] As if I couldn't have guessed

[00:03:39] He says I'm gonna get the hell

[00:03:41] Out of Slag Valley and take a little stroll way out west

[00:03:46] I want to take a little stone

[00:03:55] I will yeach
