Sonny Boy (小滑头) - Randy Newman (兰迪·纽曼)[00:00:00]

Written by：Randy Newman[00:00:00]

It's me coming at you from the land beyond[00:00:01]

I'm up here in Heaven where I belong[00:00:07]

Gonna tell you my story about a man who's down in Hell[00:00:13]

He ain't up here anyway far as I can tell[00:00:18]

This man stole my name stole my soul[00:00:24]

They're so holy up there they don't understand[00:00:31]

But he even tried to steal my jelly roll[00:00:34]

So here it is my story[00:00:37]

Here it is from the top[00:00:41]

My name is Sonny Boy Williamson[00:00:45]

I come from Jackson Tennessee[00:00:50]

Being a man named Sonny Boy might bother you[00:00:54]

It never bothered me no[00:00:59]

My mother loved me my wife did too[00:01:02]

I had a dream and the dream come true[00:01:06]

I wrote some songs that the people knew[00:01:11]

Like Good Morning School Girl and Jackson Blue[00:01:14]

Around the time of the Great Migration[00:01:19]

The blues run up the river and across the nation[00:01:23]

I run up with 'em caused a great sensation[00:01:27]

Selling biscuits on the radio in Chicago[00:01:31]

Out on the West Side to see the sights[00:01:36]

Turned the corner see my name in lights[00:01:40]

Said I'd been playing there for 14 nights[00:01:44]

This I had to see[00:01:48]

This ugly cat was on the stage[00:01:53]

Twice my size about my age[00:01:56]

Played six songs five were mine[00:02:01]

If I said he was good I'd be lying[00:02:04]

Then he says What's my name[00:02:08]

The crowd says Sonny Boy[00:02:10]

He says What's my name[00:02:12]

They go Sonny Boy[00:02:14]

He says What's my name[00:02:17]

And I said Hold it[00:02:18]

My name is Sonny Boy Williamson[00:02:21]

The one from Jackson Tennessee[00:02:25]

Don't know who you are or where you come from[00:02:29]

But one thing I do know you ain't me son[00:02:33]

I looked in his eyes and they was red[00:02:37]

As was the rang tang hair dye all over his head[00:02:41]

Scared me so bad I ran outside[00:02:45]

And I looked for a place to hide[00:02:49]

Ran round a corner smack into a robbery[00:02:54]

They were shooting at each other but they hit me[00:02:58]

Next thing I know I came up here[00:03:02]

In the middle of my 34th year[00:03:06]

Now I'm the only Bluesman in Heaven[00:03:11]

Makes me kinda sad[00:03:19]

I'm the only one died so young[00:03:25]

Didn't have the time to do nothing bad[00:03:31]

As for Sonny Boy 2 the man who stole my name[00:03:36]

Went on to glory fortune and fame[00:03:42]

He's the one who went to England[00:03:48]

Try to teach those English boys the blues[00:03:50]

He said What do I have to lose[00:03:53]

Well it killed him yeah it killed him[00:03:56]

I'm the only Bluesman in Heaven[00:04:01]

And I'm lonely as can be[00:04:10]

Lord if you're listening hear my plea[00:04:15]

Send down a Bluesman to play the blues with me[00:04:21]

This is Sonny Boy Williamson Number One[00:04:28]

That's my story I'm done[00:04:34]
