Lonely Street (寂寞大街) - Kansas[00:00:00]
Sometimes when I'm walking down this lonely street [00:00:14]
Well it sure don't seem like twenty years [00:00:21]
Since I went walking down this lonely street[00:00:28]
And the smell of perfumed ladies filled the air[00:00:36]
This street ain't got no name dead end is in the river [00:00:44]
And I lived where I hated life day by day [00:00:50]
There wasn't nothing I could do to shake a cold night shiver [00:00:57]
Cause to move up Lonely Street you had to have some say[00:01:04]
Gambling is bad luck down on Lonely Street[00:01:11]
And it sure ain't no place to be when a man gets sore[00:01:19]
You know I killed a man and I paid all I can [00:01:24]
With twenty years on a chain gang [00:01:29]
For the flesh and the blood on that jailhouse floor[00:01:33]
Sometimes when I'm walking down this lonely street[00:01:40]
I get caught up in a dream that won't let me go[00:01:47]
And as the bright lights flash up and down this lonely street[00:01:54]
My mind rolls back the years long time ago[00:02:01]
I see my baby stumblin' around with tears in her eyes[00:02:08]
And as I reach out for her she falls on the floor[00:02:16]
She mumbles through bloody lips about a bad man robber raper [00:02:23]
And in my gut I know I got one to score[00:02:30]
The word was comin' down down on Lonely Street[00:02:44]
That the bad man was a dead man if he crossed my trail[00:03:43]
Every night I'd walk up and down this Lonely Street[00:03:50]
I get stinkin' drunk and always in jail [00:04:03]
One night they threw me in with a man they called the mangler[00:04:06]
He was caught on the street makin' some old whore [00:04:27]
I remember he was quite proud of that [00:04:32]
So half-crazed I shot him [00:04:36]
And I cried in the blood on that jailhouse floor[00:04:38]
