Casey's Last Ride (凯西的最后旅程) - Kris Kristofferson (克里斯·克里斯托佛森)[00:00:00]
Written by:Kris Kristofferson[00:00:00]
Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down[00:00:07]
The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below[00:00:13]
Following their footsteps through the neon-darkened corridors[00:00:19]
Of silent desperation never speakin' to a soul[00:00:25]
The poison air he's breathin' has the dirty smell of dying[00:00:33]
'Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain[00:00:39]
But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes[00:00:46]
Of the clickin' of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains[00:00:52]
Oh she said Casey it's been so long since I've seen you[00:01:04]
Here she said just a kiss to make a body smile[00:01:13]
See she said I've put on new stockings just to please you[00:01:23]
Lord she said Casey can you only stay a while[00:01:32]
Casey leaves the underground and stops inside the golden crown[00:01:47]
For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bone[00:01:52]
Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men[00:01:58]
Who reach for any thing they can to keep from goin' home[00:02:04]
Standin' in the corner Casey drinks his pint of bitter[00:02:12]
Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by[00:02:18]
Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason[00:02:25]
Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye[00:02:31]
Oh she said I suppose you seldom think about me[00:02:43]
Now she said now that you've a family of your own[00:02:52]
Still she said it's so blessed good to feel your body[00:03:01]
Lord she said Casey it's a shame to be alone[00:03:16]
