Faraway Eyes - Live At The Beacon Theatre, New York / 2006歌词

[00:20.44]I was driving home early Sunday evening
[00:24.12]through Bakersfield
[00:24.81]
[00:25.44]Listening to Gospel music on the colored radio station
[00:29.18]And the preacher said,
[00:31.02]"You know you always have the lord by your side"
[00:35.22]And I was so pleased to be informed of this
[00:43.12]That I ran twenty red lights in his honor
[00:49.12]Thank you Jesus
[00:51.74]Thank you Lord
[00:55.81]I had an arrangement to meet a girl
[00:59.81]And I was kind of late
[01:03.33]And I thought by the time I got there, she'd be off
[01:06.61]She'd be off with the nearest truck driver she could find
[01:11.19]When I get there,
[01:14.44]There was so much to my surprise
[01:16.65]There she was sitting in the corner
[01:17.90]A little bleary, worse for wear and tear
[01:20.93]Was a girl with far away eyes
[01:29.01]So if you're down on your luck
[01:33.41]And you can't harmonize
[01:38.04]Find a girl with far away eyes
[01:46.52]And if you're downright disgusted
[01:51.35]And life ain't worth a dime
[01:55.70]Get a girl with far away eyes
[02:04.45]
[02:38.49]Well the preacher kept right on saying that
[02:41.86]All I had to do was send
[02:43.32]Ten dollars to the
[02:44.09]Church of the Sacred Bleeding Heart of Jesus
[02:45.83]Located somewhere in Los Angeles, California
[02:47.66]And next week they'd say my prayer on the radio
[02:50.18]And all my dreams would come true
[02:57.00]So I did, the next week, I got a prayer with a girl
[03:07.67]Well, you know what kind of eyes she got
[03:10.54]So if you're down on your luck
[03:17.28]I know you all sympathize
[03:19.45]
[03:22.05]Find a girl with far away eyes
[03:30.33]And if you're downright disgusted
[03:33.12]
[03:34.99]And life ain't worth a dime
[03:38.59]Get a girl with far away eyes
[03:47.39]So if you're down on your luck
[03:52.09]I know you all sympathize
[03:56.32]Seen a girl with far away eyes
[04:13.70]Seen a girl with far away eyes
