Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues (就像大拇指汤姆的布鲁斯) - Nina Simone (妮娜·西蒙)[00:00:00]

When you're lost in the rain in juarez[00:00:10]

And its easter time too[00:00:14]

And your gravity fails[00:00:20]

And negativity don't pull you through[00:00:22]

Don't put on any airs[00:00:30]

When you're down on rue morgue avenue[00:00:33]

They got some hungry women there[00:00:39]

And they really make a mess out of you[00:00:42]

Now if you see saint annie[00:00:55]

Tell Please her thanks a lot[00:00:59]

I cannot move[00:01:04]

My fingers are all in a knot[00:01:07]

I don't have the strength[00:01:14]

To get up and take another shot[00:01:17]

And my best friend my doctor[00:01:24]

Won't even say what it is I have got[00:01:27]

Sweet melinda[00:01:40]

The peasants call her the goddess of gloom[00:01:43]

She speaks good english[00:01:50]

And she invites you up into her room[00:01:53]

And you're so kind[00:01:59]

And careful not to go to her too soon[00:02:01]

And then she takes your voice[00:02:08]

And leaves you howling at the moon [00:02:11]

Up on housing project hill[00:02:29]

Its either fortune or fame[00:02:33]

You can take one or the other[00:02:38]

Though neither of them[00:02:41]

Are to be what they claim[00:02:43]

If you're looking to get silly[00:02:48]

You better go back from where you came[00:02:51]

Because the cops don't need you[00:02:58]

And man they expect the same[00:03:01]

All authorities[00:03:14]

They just stand around and boast[00:03:17]

Hew they blackmailed the sergeant at arms[00:03:23]

Into leaving his post[00:03:27]

And picking up my brother car who[00:03:32]

Just arrived here from the coast[00:03:36]

Who looked so fine at first[00:03:42]

But left looking just like a ghost well like they ghost I seed[00:03:45]

When I started out on burgundy[00:04:01]

But soon hit the harder stuff[00:04:06]

Everybody said theyd stand behind me[00:04:12]

When the game got rough[00:04:16]

Ah But the joke was on me[00:04:21]

There was nobody even there to bluff[00:04:24]

I'm going back to new york city[00:04:30]

I do believe I've had enough[00:04:33]
