2.99 Cent Blues - Regina Spektor (蕾吉娜·史派克特)[00:00:00]
Somewhere far away where I roam[00:00:07]
There live my buffalo twin [00:00:13]
In our twin buffalo home sweet home[00:00:16]
He take good care of my native son[00:00:19]
And he call me by my native name[00:00:21]
And he he even lets us drink[00:00:24]
Spring water on Sundays[00:00:26]
Say 2 99 2 99 a gallon[00:00:28]
2 99 2 99 a gallon[00:00:31]
And somewhere further down the road [00:00:39]
Where I also roam[00:00:42]
There lives my caterpillar cousin[00:00:45]
Beneath a fancy engraved tomb head stone[00:00:48]
In the middle of a southern town[00:00:51]
Beneath the cemetery burial plot[00:00:54]
And he he don't pay rent no more no more[00:00:57]
But he sure likes the spot sure likes the spot[00:00:59]
Yeah sure likes the spot sure likes the spot[00:01:03]
He sure likes the spot sure likes the spot[00:01:07]
But in the furthest place I've ever known[00:01:17]
Where even I so rarely roam[00:01:20]
There lives a boy who just come back from war[00:01:23]
His flesh was wounded but he made it back home[00:01:26]
His mother calls him by his given name[00:01:29]
And the neighbors whisper[00:01:31]
How he prefers to be alone[00:01:33]
And he get he gets nightmares[00:01:35]
About boys dripping blood[00:01:36]
Sold for 2 99 2 99 a gallon[00:01:38]
C'mon just 2 99 2 99 a gallon[00:01:40]
Pay up y'all it's 2 99 2 99 a g-g-gallon[00:01:44]
But when I get me all real tired[00:01:56]
And I got no more strength to roam[00:02:01]
I catch me a horse driven carriage ride[00:02:06]
From a local man named Ethan Frome[00:02:11]
He don't say much as he tips his hat[00:02:16]
And he carries his body as heavy as lead[00:02:20]
He could have been flying[00:02:26]
Through the snow on his sled[00:02:29]
But the wife was in bed[00:02:32]
And the horses had to be fed[00:02:33]
Besides it's 2 99 2 99 a story[00:02:37]
C'mon just 2 99 2 99 a story[00:02:41]
Pay up y'all it's just 2 99 2 99 a story[00:02:45]
C'mon baby 2 99 2 99 a story[00:02:48]
C'mon ya'll it's 2 99 2 99 2 99 2 99[00:02:51]
2 99 2 99 2 99 2 99 2 99 2 99 2 99 2 99[00:02:54]
2 99 2 99 2 99 a story[00:03:01]
Pay up y'all it's 2 99 2 99 a story[00:03:08]
Pay up it's just 2 99 2 99 a story[00:03:11]
Your money it's just 2 99 2 99 a gallon[00:03:14]
