《The Old Swimmin’ Hole》歌词

[00:00:00] The Old Swimmin' Hole - Bobby Bare

[00:00:00] I'm wishing these days I could strip to my soul

[00:00:06] And go for a dip in the old swimmin' hole

[00:00:15] Boring through the mountains by-passing the towns

[00:00:20] Interstate 90 is a sight to behold

[00:00:26] But that monument to progress and engineering skill

[00:00:31] Has covered up the old swimmin' hole

[00:00:37] Thirty feet straight up from where the old hole stood

[00:00:42] They sell out kinds of icecream and the food is good

[00:00:49] But it never can compare with the food for the soul

[00:00:54] You could get from a dip in the old swimmin' hole

[00:01:01] The old swimmin' hole her cool waters ran deep

[00:01:06] Felt good to a boy with mud on his feet

[00:01:12] And I'm wishing these days I could strip to my soul

[00:01:17] And go for a dip in the old swimmin' hole

[00:01:26] A symbol of our great and affluent society

[00:01:31] Interstate 90 fulfillment of our goals

[00:01:37] But that masterpiece of human

[00:01:40] Ingenuity has covered up the old swimmin' hole

[00:01:48] Gone the wooden schoolhouse the old country store

[00:01:53] Winding dirt road that's winding no more

[00:01:59] And the old swimmin' hole hears

[00:02:02] The sound of speeding wheels

[00:02:04] Entombed beneath a blanket of concrete and steel

[00:02:11] Oh the old swimmin' hole her cool waters ran deep

[00:02:16] Felt good to a boy with mud on his feet

[00:02:22] And I'm wishing these days I could strip to my soul

[00:02:27] And go for a dip in the old swimmin' hole

[00:02:34] I'm wishing these days I could strip to my soul

[00:02:39] And go for a dip in the old swimmin' hole

[00:02:45] The old swimmin' hole her cool waters ran deep

[00:02:50] Felt good to a boy with mud on his feet

[00:02:56] I'm wishing these days I could strip to my soul

[00:03:02] And go for a dip in the old swimmin' hole
