Dignity (尊严) - Nana Mouskouri (娜娜·穆斯库莉)[00:00:00]
Fat man lookin' in a blade of steel[00:00:10]
Thin man lookin' at his last meal[00:00:14]
Hollow man lookin' in a cotton field for dignity[00:00:18]
Wise man lookin' in a blade of grass[00:00:26]
Young man lookin' in the shadows that pass[00:00:30]
Poor man lookin' through painted glass for dignity[00:00:35]
Somebody got murdered on New Year's Eve[00:00:43]
Somebody said dignity was the first to leave[00:00:47]
I went into the city went into the town[00:00:51]
Went into the land of the midnight sun[00:00:55]
Searchin' high searchin' low[00:01:02]
Searchin' everywhere I know[00:01:06]
Askin' the cops wherever I go[00:01:10]
"Have you seen dignity "[00:01:14]
Blind man breakin' out of a trance[00:01:23]
Puts both his hands in the pocket of chance[00:01:27]
Hopin' to find one circumstance of dignity[00:01:31]
I went to the wedding of Mary-Lou[00:01:40]
She said I don't want nobody see me talkin to you[00:01:44]
Said she could get killed if she told me what she knew about dignity[00:01:48]
I went down where the vultures feed[00:01:57]
I would've gone deeper but there wasn't any need[00:02:00]
Heard the tongues of angels and the tongues of men[00:02:05]
Wasn't any difference to me[00:02:09]
Chilly wind sharp as a razor blade[00:02:16]
House on fire debts unpaid[00:02:20]
Gonna stand at the window gonna ask the maid[00:02:24]
"Have you seen dignity "[00:02:28]
Drinkin' man listens to the voice he hears[00:02:41]
In a crowded room full of covered up mirrors[00:02:45]
Lookin' into the lost forgotten years for dignity[00:02:49]
Met Prince Phillip at the home of the blues[00:02:58]
Said he'd give me information if his name wasn't used[00:03:02]
He wanted money up front said he was abused by dignity[00:03:06]
Footprints runnin' cross the silver sand[00:03:15]
Steps goin' down into tattoo land[00:03:19]
I met the sons of darkness and the sons of light[00:03:23]
In the border towns of despair[00:03:27]
Got no place to fade got no coat[00:03:33]
I'm on the rollin' river in a jerkin' boat[00:03:37]
Tryin' to read a note somebody[00:03:41]
Wrote about dignity[00:03:46]
Sick man lookin' for the doctor's cure[00:04:07]
Lookin' at his hands for the lines that were[00:04:11]
And into every masterpiece of literature for dignity[00:04:15]
Englishman stranded in the black heart wind[00:04:24]
Combin' his hair back his future looks thin[00:04:28]
Bites the bullet and he looks within for dignity[00:04:32]
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed[00:04:40]
Dignity never been photographed[00:04:44]
I went into the red went into the black[00:04:48]
Into the valley of dry bone dreams[00:04:52]
So many roads so much at stake[00:04:59]
So many dead ends I'm at the edge of the lake[00:05:03]
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take[00:05:07]
To find dignity[00:05:13]
