《Jolene》歌词

[00:00:00] Jolene - Janis Ian (珍妮斯·艾恩)

[00:00:00] Written by：Janis Ian

[00:00:21] Jimmy sits in his room 'til darkness

[00:00:25] Then he steps on the street

[00:00:29] And she watches and waits at the window

[00:00:35] Aondering who he'll meet

[00:00:39] It's a wasteland of TV dinners

[00:00:43] It's a highway in heat

[00:00:48] And there's nothing but time on the table

[00:00:51] Clocking the same old beat

[00:00:55] Jolene steps out like the life of the party

[00:01:00] High class heels and polka dot sleeves

[00:01:04] Wears her hair like a girl in a hurry

[00:01:09] Walking and talking and rocking

[00:01:12] To the beat of the street

[00:01:23] There's a crowd at the park on the corner

[00:01:27] Jimmy rushes to see

[00:01:32] On the ground is a lady in labor

[00:01:35] Jimmy forgets how to breath

[00:01:41] And it's coming too fast for a doctor

[00:01:45] And the traffic's obscene

[00:01:50] And the people are panicked and shouting

[00:01:53] Somebody do something

[00:01:57] Jolene steps in like the life of the party

[00:02:02] Kicks her heels off rolls up her sleeves

[00:02:06] Parts that crowd like a girl in a hurry

[00:02:11] Walking and talking and rocking

[00:02:14] To the beat of the street

[00:02:23] And she's smiling crying

[00:02:28] Doctoring as neat as you please

[00:02:32] People are laughing clapping

[00:02:37] She gets up off her knees

[00:02:40] Rolling down her sleeves

[00:02:42] Holding up the kid so everybody can see

[00:02:45] Jimmy offers his arm in the silence

[00:02:52] And the night comes alive

[00:02:56] And he drowns in her smile as the sirens

[00:03:00] Finally arrive

[00:03:05] There are forms to be filled say the medics

[00:03:09] As they canvas the crowd

[00:03:14] It was dangerous foolish and reckless

[00:03:17] This kind of thing shouldn't be allowed

[00:03:21] Jolene struts off like the life of the party

[00:03:26] High class heels and polka dot sleeves

[00:03:30] Arm in arm That's the end of the story

[00:03:35] They're walking and talking

[00:03:35] And they're rocking to the beat of the street
