Smuggler's Blues (Album Version) - Glenn Frey (格伦·弗雷)[00:00:00]
Written by:Glenn Frey/Jack Tempchin[00:00:02]
There's trouble on the street tonight[00:00:16]
I can feel it in my bones[00:00:17]
I had a premonition that[00:00:19]
He should not go alone[00:00:21]
I knew the gun was loaded[00:00:23]
But I didn't think he'd kill[00:00:25]
Everything exploded[00:00:27]
And the blood began to spill[00:00:29]
So baby[00:00:31]
Here's your ticket[00:00:32]
Put the suitcase in your hand[00:00:32]
Here's a little money now[00:00:35]
Do it just the way we planned[00:00:37]
You be cool for twenty hours[00:00:39]
And I'll pay you twenty grand[00:00:41]
I'm sorry it went down like this[00:00:46]
Someone had to lose[00:00:49]
It's the nature of the business[00:00:50]
It's the smuggler's blues[00:00:52]
Smuggler's blues[00:00:58]
The sailors and the pilots[00:01:02]
The soldiers and the law[00:01:04]
The payoffs and the ripoffs[00:01:06]
And the things nobody saw[00:01:08]
No matter if it's heroin[00:01:10]
Coc*ine or hash[00:01:12]
You've got to carry weapons[00:01:13]
Cause you always carry cash[00:01:15]
Thre's lots of shady characters[00:01:18]
Lots of dirty deals[00:01:19]
Every name's an alias[00:01:21]
In case somebody squeals[00:01:23]
It's the lure of easy money[00:01:25]
It's gotta very strong appeal[00:01:27]
Perhaps you'd understand it better[00:01:33]
Standing in my shoes[00:01:35]
It's the ultimate enticement[00:01:37]
It's the smuggler's blues[00:01:39]
Smuggler's blues[00:01:44]
See it in the headlines[00:02:28]
You hear it every day[00:02:29]
They say they're gonna stop it[00:02:31]
But it doesn't go away[00:02:32]
They move it through Miami[00:02:35]
Sell it in LA[00:02:37]
They hide it up in Telluride[00:02:39]
I mean it's here to stay[00:02:40]
It's propping up the governments[00:02:42]
Of Columbia and Peru[00:02:44]
You ask any DEA man[00:02:46]
He'll say there's nothing we can do[00:02:48]
From the office of the President[00:02:50]
Right down[00:02:52]
To me and you[00:02:53]
Me and you[00:02:56]
It's a losing proposition[00:02:58]
But one you can't refuse[00:03:00]
It's the politics of contraband[00:03:02]
It's the smuggler's blues[00:03:04]
Smuggler's blues[00:03:10]
