Please Mr. Gravedigger (Mono) - David Bowie (大卫·鲍伊)[00:00:01]
Written by:David Bowie[00:00:02]
There's a little churchyard just along the way[00:00:26]
It used to be Lambeth's finest array[00:00:29]
Of tombstones epitaphs wreaths flowers all that jazz[00:00:33]
'Til the war came along and someone dropped a bomb on the lot[00:00:37]
And in this little yard there's a little old man[00:00:43]
With a little shovel in his little bitty hand[00:00:47]
He seems to spend all his days puffing fags and digging graves[00:00:50]
He hates the reverend vicar and he lives all alone in his home[00:00:54]
Ah choo excuse me[00:01:00]
Please Mr. Gravedigger don't feel ashamed[00:01:03]
As you dig little holes for the dead and the maimed[00:01:06]
Please Mr. Gravedigger I couldn't care[00:01:10]
If you found a golden locket full of some girl's hair[00:01:14]
And you put it in your pocket[00:01:17]
God it's pouring down[00:01:20]
Her mother doesn't know about your sentimental joy[00:01:22]
She thinks it's down below with the rest of her toys[00:01:26]
And ma wouldn't understand so I won't tell[00:01:30]
So keep your golden locket all safely hid away in your pocket[00:01:33]
Yes Mr. GD you see me every day[00:01:40]
Standing in the same spot by a certain grave[00:01:45]
Mary-Ann was only 10 full of life and oh so gay[00:01:48]
And I was the wicked man who took her life away[00:01:52]
Very selfish oh god[00:01:56]
No Mr. GD you won't tell[00:02:00]
And just to make sure that you keep it to yourself[00:02:03]
I've started digging holes my friend[00:02:06]
And this one here's for you[00:02:08]
