《Behind The Bamboo Shade》歌词

[00:05:41] In a border town when the lights go down

[00:05:41] And the Ranchero Radio plays

[00:05:41] You won't find me around in the lights of the town

[00:05:41] I'll be out where the day meets the shade

[00:05:41] I only came for a holiday to sit in the Mexican wind

[00:05:41] I only came for the whiskey but suddenly she walked in

[00:05:41] She wore a dress made of lace

[00:05:41] And the light on her face

[00:05:41] I felt the room start to shake

[00:05:41] It shook a black Spanish love seat behind the bamboo shade

[00:05:41] I only came for the sun but I wound up with the moon and the stars

[00:05:41] When her eyes met mine the room filled with Spanish guitars

[00:05:41] The kerosene in my blood

[00:05:41] Came on like a flood

[00:05:41] As I stood to take her away

[00:05:41] To a black Spanish love seat behind the bamboo shade

[00:05:41] On a black Spanish love seat behind the bamboo shade

[00:05:41] With the skeletons dancing on the eve of the Day of the Dead

[00:05:41] I reached out in the dark

[00:05:41] Put my hand on her heart

[00:05:41] While the bows of the palm trees swayed

[00:05:41] On a black Spanish love seat behind the bamboo shade

[00:05:41] I woke up in a sweat my legs feeling too weak to stand

[00:05:41] There's a pain in my back and not a bit of grip in my hands

[00:05:41] A flash of steel in the night

[00:05:41] Left me no time to write

[00:05:41] An epitaph to leave on my grave

[00:05:41] The church bells rang on a love seat behind the bamboo shade

[00:05:41] On a black Spanish love seat behind the bamboo shade

[00:05:41] With the skeletons dancing on the eve of the Day of the Dead

[00:05:41] If you see Juan

[00:05:41] Tell him I can't come

[00:05:41] I've got a previous engagement I've made

[00:05:41] I'm on a black Spanish love seat behind the bamboo shade
