《Whistlin’ Past the Graveyard - Blue Valentine》歌词

[00:00:00] Whistlin' Past the Graveyard - Blue Valentine - Tom Waits (汤姆·威兹)

[00:00:12] I come in on a night train

[00:00:14] With an arm full of box cars

[00:00:16] Wings of a magpie

[00:00:18] Cross a hooligan night

[00:00:20] I busted up a chifforobe

[00:00:22] Way out by the cocomo

[00:00:24] Cooked up a mess a mulligan

[00:00:26] Got into a fight

[00:00:28] Whistlin' past the graveyard

[00:00:30] Steppin' on a crack

[00:00:31] Mean motherhubbard

[00:00:33] Papa one eyes jack

[00:00:35] You probably seen me sleeping

[00:00:37] Out by the railroad tracks

[00:00:39] Go on and ask the prince of darkness

[00:00:40] What about all that smoke

[00:00:41] Come from the stack

[00:00:43] Sometimes I kill myself a jackal

[00:00:45] Suck out all the blood

[00:00:47] Steal myself a station wagon

[00:00:49] Drivin' through the mud

[00:00:50] I'm gonna be whistlin' past the graveyard

[00:00:52] Steppin' on a crack

[00:00:54] I'm mean motherhubbard

[00:00:56] Papa one eyed jack

[00:00:58] I know you seen my headlights

[00:01:00] The honkin' of my horn

[00:01:02] I'm calling out my bloodhounds

[00:01:04] Chase the devil through the corn

[00:01:06] Last night I chugged the Mississippi

[00:01:08] Now that suckers dry as a bone

[00:01:10] Born in a taxi cab

[00:01:12] I'm never coming home

[00:01:14] Whistlin' past the graveyard

[00:01:15] Steppin' on a crack

[00:01:17] I'm mean motherhubbard

[00:01:19] Papa one eyed jack

[00:01:21] My eyes have seen the glory

[00:01:23] Of the drainin' og the ditch

[00:01:25] I only come to baton rouge

[00:01:27] I gotta find myself a witch

[00:01:29] I'm gonna snatch me up a

[00:01:30] Couple of em every time it rains

[00:01:33] You see a locomotive

[00:01:34] Probably thinkin' its a train

[00:01:37] Whistlin' past the graveyard

[00:01:38] Steppin' on a crack

[00:01:40] I'm mean motherhubbard

[00:01:42] Papa one eyed jack

[00:01:44] What you think is the sunshine

[00:01:46] Is just a twinkle in my eye

[00:01:48] That ring around my fingers

[00:01:50] Called the 4th of July

[00:01:52] When I get a little bit lonesome

[00:01:54] And a tear falls from my check

[00:01:56] Gonna be an ocean in

[00:01:57] The middle of the week

[00:02:00] Whistlin' past the graveyard

[00:02:01] Steppin' on a crack

[00:02:03] I'm mean motherhubbard

[00:02:05] Papa one eyed jack

[00:02:07] I come into town on a night train

[00:02:09] Arm full of box cars

[00:02:11] Wings of a magpie

[00:02:13] Cross a hooligan night

[00:02:15] I'm gonna tear me off a rainbow

[00:02:17] Wear it for a tie

[00:02:18] I never told the truth

[00:02:20] So I can never tell a lie

[00:02:22] Whistlin' past the graveyard

[00:02:24] Steppin' on a crack

[00:02:26] I'm mean motherhubbard

[00:02:28] Papa one eyed jack
