Blue Wing - Tom Russell (汤姆罗素)/Dave Alvin[00:00:00]

He had a blue wing tattooed on his shoulder[00:00:01]

Well it might have been a blue bird I don't know[00:00:06]

But he'd get stone drunk and talk about alaska[00:00:11]

The salmon boats and 45 below[00:00:16]

He got that blue wing up in walla walla[00:00:20]

And his cellmate there was little willy john[00:00:26]

And willy he was once a great blues singer[00:00:31]

And wing and willy wrote 'em up a song they said[00:00:36]

It's dark in here can't see the sky[00:00:40]

But I look at this blue wing and I close my eyes[00:00:46]

And I fly away beyond these walls[00:00:51]

Up above the clouds where the rain don't fall[00:00:56]

On a poor man's dream[00:01:03]

They paroled blue wing in august of 1963[00:01:10]

He moved north picking apples to the town of wenatchee[00:01:15]

Then winter finally caught him in a run down trailer park[00:01:20]

On the south side of seattle where the days grow gray and dark[00:01:25]

And he drank and he dreamt of visions when the salmon still ran free[00:01:30]

And his fathers' fathers crossed that wild old bering sea[00:01:35]

And the land belonged to everyone and there were old songs yet to sing[00:01:40]

Now it's narrowed down to a cheap hotel and a tattooed prison wing[00:01:45]

It's dark in here can't see the sky[00:01:49]

But I look at this blue wing and I close my eyes[00:01:55]

And I fly away beyond these walls[00:01:59]

Up above the clouds where the rain don't fall[00:02:04]

On a poor man's dream[00:02:11]

Well he drank his way to l a and that's where he died[00:02:34]

And no one knew his christian name and there was no one there to cry[00:02:39]

But I dreamt there was a funeral a preacher and a cheap pine box[00:02:44]

And half way through the service blue wing began to talk he said[00:02:48]

It's dark in here can't see the sky[00:02:54]

But I look at this blue wing and I close my eyes[00:02:59]

And I fly away beyond these walls[00:03:04]

Up above the clouds where the rain don't fall[00:03:09]

On a poor man's dream[00:03:16]

On a poor man's dream[00:03:21]

On a poor man's dream[00:03:30]
