Telegraph Road
作词 : Mark Knopfler
作曲 : Mark Knopfler
A long time ago came a man on a track
Walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
And he put down his load
Where he thought it was the best
He made a home in the wilderness
He built a cabin and a winter store
And he plowed up the ground by the cold lake shore
And the other travellers came walking down the track
And they never went further no
They never went back
Then came the churches
Then came the schools
Then came the lawyers
Then came the rules
Then came the trains and the trucks with their loads
And the dirty old track
Was the telegraph road
Then came the mines
Then came the ore
Then there was the hard times
Like a rolling river
And my radio says tonight it's gonna freeze
People driving home from the factories
Six lanes of traffic
Three lanes moving slow
I used to like to go to work
But they shut it down
I've got a right to go to work
But there's no work here to be found
Yes and they say
We're gonna have to pay what's owed
We're gonna have to reap
From some seed that's been sowed
And the birds up on the wires
And the telegraph poles
They can always fly away from this rain and this cold
You can hear them singing out their telegraph code
But I remember those nights
When life was just a bet on a race between the lights
You had your head on my shoulder
You had your hand in my hair
Now you act a little colder like you don't seem to care
But just believe in me baby and I'll take you away
From out of this darkness and into the day
From these rivers of headlights these rivers of rain
From the anger that lives on the streets with these names
'Cos I've run every red light on memory lane
I've seen desperation explode into flames
And I don't wanna see it again
From all of these signs saying sorry but we're closed
