《Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues - Nina Simone

[00:00:10] When youre lost in the rain in juarez

[00:00:15] its And easter time too

[00:00:20] And your gravity fails

[00:00:22] And negativity dont pull you through

[00:00:30] Dont put on any airs

[00:00:33] When youre down on rue morgue avenue

[00:00:40] They got some hungry women there

[00:00:43] And they really make a mess out of you

[00:00:55] Now if you see saint annie

[00:00:59] tell Please her thanks a lot

[00:01:05] I cannot move

[00:01:07] My fingers are all in a knot

[00:01:15] I dont have the strength

[00:01:18] To get up and take another shot

[00:01:25] And my best friend my doctor

[00:01:28] Wont even say what it is I have got

[00:01:40] Sweet melinda

[00:01:43] The peasants call her the goddess of gloom

[00:01:51] speaks She good english

[00:01:53] And she invites you up into her room

[00:02:00] And youre so kind

[00:02:01] And careful not to go to her too soon

[00:02:09] And then she takes your voice

[00:02:12] And leaves you howling at the moon .......

[00:02:29] Up on housing project hill

[00:02:33] Its either fortune or fame

[00:02:39] You can take one or the other

[00:02:42] Though neither of them

[00:02:43] Are to be what they claim

[00:02:49] If youre looking to get silly

[00:02:52] You better go back from where you came

[00:02:58] Because the cops dont need you

[00:03:01] And man they expect the same

[00:03:14] the Now authoritiesall

[00:03:18] just They stand around and boast

[00:03:24] Hew they blackmailed the sergeant at arms

[00:03:28] Into leaving his post

[00:03:33] And picking up my brother car who

[00:03:37] Just arrived here from the coast

[00:03:43] Who looked so fine at first

[00:03:46] But left looking just like

[00:03:48] a ghost well like they ghost i seed

[00:04:02] I when started out on burgundy

[00:04:07] But soon hit the harder stuff

[00:04:13] Everybody said theyd stand behind me

[00:04:16] When the game got rough

[00:04:21] ah But the joke was on me

[00:04:25] There was nobody even there to bluff

[00:04:31] Im going back to new york city

[00:04:34] I do believe Ive had enough
