The King of Oak Street - Kenny Rogers (肯尼·罗杰斯)[00:00:00]
Like a leaf caught in the wind he drifted a while[00:00:09]
With no purpose or direction to his life[00:00:19]
He tried to get himself together and pacify his mind[00:00:29]
And forget about the things he left behind[00:00:39]
The cryin' woman standing helpless in his door[00:00:49]
With a two month old baby in her arms[00:00:59]
His little black book laying torn up on the floor[00:01:08]
And god only knows he never meant to do her wrong[00:01:17]
A careless weekend on the other side of town[00:01:27]
Has torn the king of oak street's castle down[00:01:37]
And all week long he's tried[00:01:47]
To call her but she won't let him explain[00:01:50]
Now sunday morning finds him walking in the rain[00:01:57]
He sits down in a phone booth and he prays[00:02:07]
That she'll forgive him and she'll believe he's changed his ways[00:02:16]
With shaking hand he deposits his last dime[00:02:26]
And he's still praying that she won't hang up this time[00:02:35]
Then the sweetest voice he's ever heard says hello[00:02:45]
Breakfast's almost ready baby come on home[00:02:55]
I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand[00:03:05]
That the king of oak street is just an ordinary man[00:03:14]
I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand[00:03:23]
That the king of oak street is just an ordinary man[00:03:34]
