Happy Blues For John Glenn - Lightnin' Hopkins (莱克林·霍普金斯)[00:00:00]
Written by:Lightning Hopkins[00:00:00]
People I was sittin' this mornin' with this on my mind[00:00:24]
Said there ain't no livin' man who gone around the[00:00:28]
World three time[00:00:30]
But John Glenn did[00:00:31]
Yes he did[00:00:35]
He did it I'm talkin' about him[00:00:38]
Only did it for fun[00:00:41]
Half a million dollars made him feel so well[00:00:47]
He got to eatin' his lunch and couldn't hardly tell[00:00:51]
He said I feel all right[00:00:54]
John Glenn said it[00:00:58]
Everybody was laughin'[00:01:02]
And dipped in the gritty[00:01:05]
It was a million prayer went up[00:01:09]
Prayin' that he would land[00:01:12]
I looked at a schoolhouse full of men and they didn't[00:01:14]
Know what to say[00:01:17]
But they said let him come back God[00:01:18]
Please let him land[00:01:22]
You know that's the onliest man ever did it[00:01:26]
And you're the helpin' hand[00:01:29]
I see'd him when he left but I didn't see him when he[00:01:58]
Land[00:02:01]
But I knowed he was doin' all right when they said it[00:02:02]
Is ok to give him a great big hand[00:02:04]
He'll be in on the ship[00:02:06]
They say he's on deck[00:02:11]
His mother say I know my son gonna make it it ain't[00:02:16]
Never been no mistake[00:02:19]
You know I wanna tell you somethin' this ain't lyin'[00:02:51]
You know that man must had on his mind flyin'[00:02:56]
It ain't nobody will take that for his tryin'[00:03:00]
Unless they gonna build him his own self airplane and[00:03:03]
They gonna go flyin'[00:03:06]
They told him don't worry this is true[00:03:08]
You may miss me for a few minutes but I'll be back to[00:03:12]
See about you he did[00:03:15]
Yes he did[00:03:18]
Yes when he done it didn't know what had happened the[00:03:22]
Helicopter say[00:03:24]
You know they tested that boy's body even test his[00:03:54]
Heart[00:03:58]
They knowed he was all right when he was gettin' to[00:03:59]
Start[00:04:02]
I mean he's made it[00:04:02]
He went around the world three times[00:04:05]
You know he went and got him an airplane[00:04:10]
And he made up and had it on his mind[00:04:13]
That's what he had on his mind[00:04:33]
He didn't have no kid and he didn't have no digs[00:04:37]
He just had it in his mind flyin'[00:04:40]
