Sunday and Sister Jones (LP版) - Roberta Flack (罗伯特·弗兰克)[00:00:00]

It was early Sunday evening just before the death of day[00:00:16]

All the family friends were grieving[00:00:30]

Rev Jones just passed away[00:00:36]

Sister Jones had seen it coming[00:00:42]

She was familiar with the signs[00:00:49]

Late one night I heard her humming while strolling through the Georgia pines[00:00:57]

She said lord if you take him away I don't want to live[00:01:07]

It was early Sunday morning just before the birth of day[00:01:23]

I can hear the rooster crowing[00:01:37]

Sister Jones knelt down and prayed[00:01:43]

She said[00:01:48]

Lord he's slipping through my fingers[00:01:50]

Is death[00:01:57]

Is death the master of us all[00:01:59]

Lord I'm humble here before you[00:02:04]

Just grant this life and don't let him fall[00:02:10]

She said lord if you take him away[00:02:15]

I don't want to live another day[00:02:22]

Later on that Sunday evening just before the midnight dawn[00:02:59]

Sister Jones was heavy breathing[00:03:11]

I still hear her mourning song[00:03:17]

Life was crying from her body like water from a drying well[00:03:24]

Well I heard her whisper thank you Jesus just before the midnight bell[00:03:36]

Sister Jones was taken away she didn't live[00:03:51]

Sister Jones was taken away she did not live another day[00:04:04]

Sister Jones was taken away she didn't live[00:04:17]

Sister Jones was taken away she didn't live another day[00:04:30]
