《When Malindy Sings》歌词

[00:00:00] When Malindy Sings - Abbey Lincoln

[00:00:47] G'way an' quit dat noise Miss Lucy Put dat music book away

[00:00:55] What's de use to keep on tryin'

[00:00:59] Ef you practise twell you're gray You cain't sta't no notes aflyin'

[00:01:06] Lak de ones dat rants and rings f'om de kitchen to de big woods

[00:01:13] When Malindy sings

[00:01:17] Easy 'nough fu' folks to hollah Lookin' at de lines an' dots

[00:01:24] When dey ain't no one kin sence it An' de chune comes in in spots

[00:01:31] But fu' real malojous music Dat jes' strikes yo' hea't and clings

[00:01:39] Jes' you stan' an' listen wif me When Malindy sings

[00:01:46] Oh hit's sweetah dan de music Of an edicated band

[00:01:53] An' hit's dearah dan de battle's Song o' triumph in de lan'

[00:02:00] It seems holier dan evenin' When de solemn chu'ch bell rings

[00:02:08] Ez I sit an' ca'mly listen While Malindy sings

[00:03:10] Towsah stop dat ba'kin' hyeah me

[00:03:14] Mandy mek dat chile keep still Don't you hyeah de echoes callin'

[00:03:21] F'om de valley to de hill

[00:03:25] Let me listen I can hyeah it Th'oo de bresh of angel's wings

[00:03:32] Sof' an' sweet

[00:03:34] Swing Low Sweet Chariot when Malindy sings
