Shade Of Gray (灰色阴影) (Live) - Robert Earl Keen (罗伯特·伯爵基恩)[00:00:00]

Written by：Robert Earl Keen[00:00:00]

We made Oklahoma a little after 3[00:00:10]

Randy his brother Bob and my old GMC[00:00:14]

We had some moonshine whisky[00:00:18]

So Bob's homegrown[00:00:20]

We were so messed up we didn't know[00:00:22]

If we were drunk or stoned[00:00:24]

Randy was a sad sack tall kinda frail[00:00:28]

Bob was a raving maniac crazy in the head[00:00:31]

They been kicked out of high school several years ago[00:00:35]

For pushing over port a cans at the 4h rodeo[00:00:39]

Since then they've done their little dance[00:00:43]

Right outside the law[00:00:45]

Popped twice in Oklahoma once in Arkansas[00:00:47]

And I don't know what possessed me[00:00:52]

To want to tag along[00:00:53]

Cause I was raised a Christian[00:00:55]

And I knew right from wrong[00:00:57]

Right or wrong black or white[00:01:01]

Cross the line you're gonna pay[00:01:05]

In the dawn before the light[00:01:09]

Live and die by the shades of gray[00:01:13]

We stole two Charolais heifers from[00:01:21]

Randy's sweetheart's paw[00:01:24]

Sold them at the livestock sale[00:01:25]

Outside of Wichita[00:01:27]

We got 900 and never did suspect[00:01:29]

The world of hurt we'd be in once[00:01:33]

We cashed that check[00:01:36]

Next day we heard the story[00:01:37]

On the local radio[00:01:39]

Made our plans that very night[00:01:41]

To go to Mexico[00:01:43]

I swear we would have made it[00:01:45]

If it wasn't for that shine[00:01:47]

I got sick about the time we crossed[00:01:49]

That kansas line[00:01:52]

Right or wrong black or white[00:01:55]

Cross the line you're gonna pay[00:01:58]

In the dawn before the light[00:02:03]

Live and die by the shades of gray[00:02:07]

I was laying in the bar ditch[00:02:18]

Praying I would die[00:02:20]

When a light come on above us[00:02:22]

And a voice come from the sky[00:02:24]

A half a dozen unmarked cars[00:02:26]

Came screeching to a halt[00:02:28]

They grabbed Bob he started screaming[00:02:30]

It was all my fault[00:02:32]

There were men and dogs[00:02:34]

And helicopter buzzing all around[00:02:35]

They had the brothers on the[00:02:37]

Pickup hood and me down on the ground[00:02:39]

Bob flew all to pieces but randy he[00:02:42]

Held tight when a black man in a[00:02:45]

Suit and tie stepped out into the light[00:02:47]

He told his men to turn us loose[00:02:50]

They put down their guns[00:02:52]

He said these are just to[00:02:54]

Sorry kids they ain't the ones[00:02:55]

Right or wrong black or white[00:03:00]

Cross the line you're gonna pay[00:03:04]

In the dawn before the light[00:03:08]

Live and die by the shades of gray[00:03:12]

They left us by the roadside[00:03:20]

Down hearted and alone[00:03:22]

Randy got behind the wheel[00:03:24]

Said boys I'm going home[00:03:26]

We turned around to face our fate[00:03:28]

Downhearted but alive on that[00:03:30]

Morning in late April Oklahoma 1995[00:03:32]

Right or wrong black or white[00:03:38]

Cross the line you're gonna pay[00:03:42]

In the dawn before the light[00:03:46]

Live and die by the shades of gray[00:03:50]

Live and die by the shades of gray[00:03:54]

Live and die by the shades of gray[00:03:58]
