Strange Man (LP版) - Etta James (埃塔·詹姆斯)[00:00:00]
That samarian woman[00:00:09]
Came running to the city[00:00:12]
To talk about the man she saw[00:00:14]
She took her pitcher[00:00:18]
And went to the well[00:00:20]
And water she intended to draw[00:00:23]
The stranger she met there[00:00:27]
She didn't know where he came from[00:00:29]
But when he told her[00:00:31]
Every sinful thing she had done[00:00:32]
She said the man at the well[00:00:36]
Blessed my soul and gone[00:00:38]
Her friends in town asked her[00:00:43]
Did you know that man[00:00:45]
She said no I never saw him before[00:00:48]
They asked her did you get his name[00:00:52]
She said he didn't tell me and I don't know[00:00:57]
'Cause when he spoke my soul caught on fire[00:01:02]
And I'll remember this day 'til the day that I die[00:01:06]
And he stopped by[00:01:11]
And blessed my soul and gone[00:01:13]
The stranger was next seen in the city[00:01:18]
He was standing off an angry mob[00:01:24]
Defending a women that had been caught[00:01:29]
In the very act of adultery[00:01:31]
For pity and mercy she sought[00:01:33]
He said ye who is without sin cast the first stone[00:01:37]
And when he raised her from the ground[00:01:42]
All her accusers were gone[00:01:43]
He gave her a smile and waved farewell and was gone[00:01:46]
The crowd asked her[00:01:53]
Did you know that man[00:01:56]
She said no I never saw him before[00:01:59]
They asked her don't you know his name[00:02:03]
She said he didn't tell me and I don't know[00:02:07]
But when he touched me I felt the power from his arms[00:02:13]
And I don't plan again to do no wrong[00:02:17]
I'm just glad he stopped by[00:02:22]
And saved my life and gone[00:02:24]
I met that same man[00:02:29]
Talking about that same man[00:02:34]
When I turned away from sin[00:02:39]
He opened up his arms and let me in[00:02:43]
I got that same power[00:02:47]
My soul caught on fire[00:02:53]
I'm just glad he stopped by[00:02:57]
In Alabama[00:03:00]
I'm glad he stopped by[00:03:02]
One Tuesday evening[00:03:05]
Glad he stopped by[00:03:06]
And blessed my soul and gone[00:03:09]
