Crossing Muddy Waters - John Hiatt (约翰·亥特)[00:00:00]
My baby's gone and I don't know why[00:00:19]
She let out this morning[00:00:23]
Like a rusty shot in a hollow sky[00:00:27]
Left me without warning[00:00:32]
Sooner than the dogs could bark[00:00:37]
And faster than the sun rose[00:00:41]
Down to the banks in an old mule car[00:00:45]
She took a flatboat across the shallow[00:00:49]
Left me in my tears to drown[00:00:53]
She left a baby daughter[00:01:01]
Now the water's wide and deep and brown[00:01:06]
She's crossing muddy waters[00:01:10]
Tobacco standing in the fields[00:01:30]
Be rotten come november[00:01:34]
And a bitter heart will not reveal[00:01:38]
A spring that love remembers[00:01:43]
When that sweet brown girl of mine[00:01:48]
Her black eyes are ravens[00:01:52]
We broke the bread and drank the wine[00:01:56]
From a jug that she'd been saving[00:02:01]
Left me in my tears to drown[00:02:05]
She left a baby daughter[00:02:13]
Now the water's wide and deep and brown[00:02:17]
She's crossing muddy waters[00:02:22]
Baby's crying and the daylight's gone[00:02:43]
That big oak tree is groaning[00:02:47]
In rush of wind and river of song[00:02:52]
I can hear my sweetheart moaning[00:02:56]
Crying for her baby child[00:03:00]
Or crying for her husband[00:03:08]
Crying for that river's wild[00:03:13]
To take her from her loved ones[00:03:17]
Left me in my tears to drown[00:03:21]
She left a baby daughter[00:03:29]
Now the water's wide and deep and brown[00:03:34]
She's crossing muddy waters[00:03:38]
Now the water's wide and deep and brown[00:03:43]
She's crossing muddy waters[00:03:47]
