Gertrude - Jerry Jeff Walker (杰里·杰夫·沃克)[00:00:00]

Yeah now gertrude[00:00:06]

Was just a one eyed girl[00:00:07]

Workin' down in new orleans[00:00:09]

Gertrude she's a regular pal[00:00:12]

One of them cajun queens[00:00:15]

Soft hearted hooker in a two bit dive[00:00:18]

A regular saint sadie got just one eye[00:00:21]

Got a set of arms like a lumberjack[00:00:23]

But gertrude's got a heart of gold dust[00:00:26]

Now gertrude was always on the streets[00:00:33]

Hustling up a dime or two[00:00:36]

Gertrude was nice and sweet[00:00:39]

'Specially when she's trickin' you[00:00:42]

She could take you to the back[00:00:44]

And in a minute flat[00:00:46]

She'd be back drinkin' whiskey[00:00:47]

From a water glass[00:00:49]

Laughing like a sailor on a three day pass[00:00:50]

Gertrude was a swingin' bar fly[00:00:53]

Yeah I met her when I was runnin' about[00:01:00]

And nobody seemed to care for me[00:01:03]

She took me to her side[00:01:06]

And explained the facts of life to me[00:01:08]

She told me 'bout the world and all it's misery[00:01:12]

She taught me how to laugh and be a friend[00:01:14]

Indeed[00:01:17]

And let the sanctimonious crowds go their way[00:01:17]

Gertrude had a way with alright[00:01:20]

Alright now[00:01:24]

Yeah she took me to the room that night[00:01:54]

And made me feel a man again[00:01:56]

We laughed and talked and drank and sang[00:01:59]

Then the beautiful night came to an end[00:02:02]

I fell asleep in a broken down chair[00:02:05]

And when I woke there was nobody there[00:02:08]

She rolled me[00:02:11]

But she told me in a note she left[00:02:11]

You gotta keep makin' it my friend[00:02:13]

So somewhere down in new orleans[00:02:21]

Where the wine and the laughs are friends[00:02:24]

I bet there's a one eyed beauty there[00:02:26]

Just trippin' and pickin' up men[00:02:29]

For wherever there are souls who are hung in distress[00:02:32]

There's bound to be a whore for your sos[00:02:35]

Thank god for women no matter where it's at[00:02:38]

And gertrude is setting all kinds of records[00:02:40]

Yeah now gertrude[00:02:48]

Was just a one eyed girl[00:02:49]

She is a[00:02:50]

Workin' down in new orleans[00:02:51]

Gertrude she's a regular pal[00:02:54]

One of them cajun queens[00:02:56]

She is a[00:02:59]

Soft hearted hooker in a two bit dive[00:02:59]

A regular saint sadie got just one eye[00:03:02]

Tears[00:03:04]

Got a set of arms like a lumberjack[00:03:05]

But gertrude's got a heart of gold dust[00:03:07]

I love her so much[00:03:10]
