《Soulsville(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] Soulsville(Live) - Isaac Hayes

[00:00:38] Black man born free

[00:00:41] At least that's the way it's supposed to be

[00:00:45] Chains that binds him are hard to see

[00:00:49] Unless you take this walk with me

[00:00:54] Place where he lives is God plenty of names

[00:01:00] Slums ghetto and black belt

[00:01:05] They are one and the same

[00:01:08] And I call it Soulsville"

[00:01:17] Any kind of job is hard to find

[00:01:21] That means an increase in the welfare line

[00:01:25] Crime rate is rising too

[00:01:29] If you are hungry what would you do

[00:01:34] Rent is two months past due

[00:01:37] And the building that's falling apart

[00:01:41] Little boy needs a pair of shoes

[00:01:45] And this is only a part of Soulsville

[00:01:57] Some of the brothers' got plenty of cash

[00:02:01] Tricks on the corner gonna see to that

[00:02:05] Some like to smoke and some like to blow

[00:02:09] Some are even strung out on a fifty dollar Jones

[00:02:15] Some are trying to ditch reality by getting so high

[00:02:22] Only to find out you can never touch the sky

[00:02:28] 'Cause your hoods are in Soulsville oh yeah

[00:02:38] Every Sunday morning

[00:02:40] I can hear the old sisters say

[00:02:45] Hallelujah Hallelujah

[00:02:48] Trust in the Lord to make a way oh yeah

[00:02:54] I hope that He hear their

[00:02:56] Prayers 'cause deep in their souls they believe

[00:03:01] Someday He'll put an end to

[00:03:05] All this misery that we have in Soulsville

[00:03:11] Oh yeah Soulsville Soulsville

[00:03:35] Soulsville Soulsville Soulsville

[00:03:59] Soulsville Soulsville Soulsville
