《Wild West(Live At The Roundabout Theatre， New York City/1986)》歌词

[00:00:00] Wild West - Joe Jackson

[00:00:28] Out to the west theres a trail that leads somewhere

[00:00:33] And a call of the wild that takes some people there

[00:00:37] Through monument valley to california sun

[00:00:42] From new amsterdam to the way the west was won

[00:00:49] Well years will go by when you wont get nowhere

[00:00:54] Youre cold and youre tired and youre free and you dont care

[00:01:04] You keep pushin on when your friends keep turning back

[00:01:08] You keep building towns and laying railroad track

[00:01:13] And things get crazy and you have to use that sun

[00:01:18] And you wonder if this is the way the west is won

[00:01:22] But keep thinkin that way and you wont get nowhere

[00:01:27] Cause you got a right just to get where youre goin to

[00:01:32] Gotta keep runnin gotta be the best

[00:01:35] Gotta walk tall in the wild west

[00:02:08] You keep on the move or you try to settle down

[00:02:12] And theres strangers from further and further away in town

[00:02:16] And you give them some tools and they know what must be done

[00:02:21] And you know the west was won

[00:02:25] And they say

[00:02:26] Where I come from you cant get nowhere

[00:02:30] Im breaking my back for some opportunity

[00:02:35] Making my fortune and Ill take it all home

[00:02:38] Tell my kids about the wild west

[00:02:45] And theres still beauty as the flowers bloom on desert sands

[00:02:49] And theres still hope as the sun rises over the rio grande

[00:02:54] But its so crowded now and nothings simple anymore

[00:02:59] And theyre still knocking at your door

[00:03:22] You hear guns in the night and you hope theyre not for you

[00:03:27] Cause a dog eats a dog then he eats his master too

[00:03:32] In the land of the free and the not so often brave

[00:03:37] Theres both love or money now choose which you will save

[00:03:44] But keep thinkin that way and you wont get nowhere

[00:03:49] Cause you got a right just to get where youre goin to

[00:03:53] Gotta keep runnin gotta be the best

[00:03:56] Gotta walk tall in the wild west

[00:04:01] But keep thinking that way and you wont get nowhere

[00:04:05] Cause you got a right just to get where youre goin to

[00:04:10] Gotta keep runnin gotta be the best

[00:04:12] Gotta walk tall in the wild west

[00:04:15] Tall in the wild west

[00:04:17] Tall in the wild west
