Open the Door, Richard - Louis Jordan (路易斯·乔丹)[00:00:00]
Written by:Jack McVea/Frank Clarke[00:00:01]
Open the door Richard[00:00:08]
Open the door and let me in[00:00:12]
Open the door Richard[00:00:16]
Richard why don't you open that door[00:00:20]
I met old Zeke standing on the corner the other day[00:00:24]
That cat sure was booted with the liquor[00:00:26]
He was what[00:00:28]
He was intoxicated[00:00:29]
He was what[00:00:31]
He was inebriated[00:00:32]
He was what[00:00:34]
Well he was just plain drunk[00:00:36]
Well alright then[00:00:38]
He was sure salty with the bartender[00:00:39]
The bartender's trying to make him by another drink[00:00:42]
Zeke told the bartender[00:00:44]
There ain't no need of me buying no drinks when everyone else is buying them[00:00:46]
I'm going to drink to everybody's health till I ruin my own[00:00:50]
Open the door Richard[00:00:55]
Why don't he know who he's throwing outta that joint[00:00:58]
Why I'll go back in that joint and take a short stick[00:01:01]
And bust it down to the ground[00:01:05]
Open the door Richard[00:01:08]
But I hate to be caught out on the street like this[00:01:12]
Cause it makes she look so common[00:01:14]
And I know I'm common cause I got class I ain't never used yet[00:01:16]
But I guess I better get on in the house cause[00:01:22]
I don't want my pastor to catch me out like this[00:01:24]
Hi Richard[00:01:29]
Open the door[00:01:31]
Now look at that old woman across the street[00:01:32]
Done stuck her head outta the window calling her sister[00:01:34]
Look at her and her sister saying ain't that him ain't that him '[00:01:37]
Yes it's me and I'm drunk again[00:01:40]
Open the door Richard[00:01:45]
I know he's in there cause I got on the clothes[00:01:48]
They can't throw him out cause[00:01:51]
I owe just as much back rent as he does[00:01:52]
Imagine that old woman charging us three dollars a month[00:01:55]
And getting mad cause we twelve months in the areas[00:01:59]
Come meeting me last Thursday saying[00:02:02]
'Ain't you boys going to give me some back rent '[00:02:04]
I told her she'd be lucky if she got some front rent[00:02:07]
Open the door Richard[00:02:11]
Hi Richard[00:02:15]
Come on open the door[00:02:17]
Cause I'm standing here scratching in my pants pocket[00:02:19]
And standing here groping in my coat pocket[00:02:24]
And standing here feeling in my shirt pocket[00:02:28]
And I can't find the key[00:02:32]
Open the door Richard[00:02:34]
Open the door Richard[00:02:38]
Open the door and let me in[00:02:42]
Open the door Richard[00:02:46]
Richard why don't you open that door[00:02:50]
Open the door Richard[00:02:57]
