She Was No Good (Album Version) - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)[00:00:00]

She could be no good I'm telling you[00:00:28]

Gather round boys for a tale that is tragic and true[00:00:35]

On the Mississippi riverboat "Magnolia"[00:00:45]

No one onboard was smelling too sweet[00:00:57]

That precious one must have been stamping her feet[00:01:04]

Dictating demands all well and fine[00:01:13]

A few rods west of the Bridgeport line[00:01:16]

But the veil was drawn and the halo slipped[00:01:21]

Tippling tinctures reciting scripture[00:01:25]

Faces where slapped just as kid gloves were suffered[00:01:32]

Vile threats were uttered and challenges offered[00:01:40]

On the Cumberland riverboat "E W Stephens"[00:01:50]

Daggers were drawn on pistols pulled[00:02:02]

Staggering 'til dawn filled up with whiskey and rum[00:02:09]

And several drunken musicians ran amok[00:02:18]

Rampaging with the crew around the deck[00:02:25]

And I received a blow that was unkind[00:02:33]

It turned my cheek to the colour of gentian violet[00:02:40]

I wouldn't say that this journey had quite been the highlight[00:02:52]

Of the All-American Tour[00:03:02]

Teetering on the edge of war[00:03:06]

Out of the genteel Northern prosceniums[00:03:10]

Filled up with imitation Europeans[00:03:19]

Down along the river of rough damnations[00:03:28]

By the blood-stained cotton and the slave plantations[00:03:36]
