The Ballad Of Curtis Loew (科迪斯勒夫之歌) - Lynyrd Skynyrd (林纳·史金纳)[00:00:00]
Well I used to wake the mornin' before the rooster crowed[00:00:09]
Searchin' for soda bottles to get myself some dough[00:00:18]
Run 'em down to the corner down to the country store[00:00:25]
Cash 'em in and give my money to a man named Curtis Leow[00:00:32]
Old Curt was a black man with white curly hair[00:00:38]
When he had a fifth of wine he did not have a care[00:00:46]
He used to own an old Dobro used to play it across his knees[00:00:52]
I'd give old Curt my money he'd play all day for me[00:00:59]
Play me a song Curtis Leow Curtis Leow[00:01:06]
Well I got your drinkin' money tune up your Dobro[00:01:12]
People said he was useless them people all were fools[00:01:17]
'Cause Curtis Leow was the finest picker to ever play the blues[00:01:26]
He looked to be sixty and maybe I was ten[00:01:40]
Mama used to whup me but I'd go see him again[00:01:47]
I'd clap my hands stomp my feets try to stay in time[00:01:53]
He'd play me a song or two then take another drink of wine[00:02:00]
Play me a song Curtis Leow Curtis Leow[00:02:06]
Well I got your drinkin' money tune up your Dobro[00:02:13]
People said he was useless them people all were fools[00:02:19]
'Cause Curtis Leow was the finest picker to ever play the blues[00:02:27]
Yesssir[00:02:34]
On the day ol' Curtis died nobody came to pray[00:03:35]
Ol' preacher said some words and they chunked him in the clay[00:03:41]
Well he lived a lifetime playin' the black man's blues[00:03:48]
And on the day he lost his life that's all he had to lose[00:03:54]
Play me a song Curtis Leow hey Curtis Leow[00:04:01]
I wish that you was here so everyone would know[00:04:07]
People said you were useless them people all are fools[00:04:14]
'Cause Curtis you're the finest picker to ever play the blues[00:04:21]
Mmmmm[00:04:35]
