The Sidewalks Of Chicago (24-Bit Digitally Remastered 05) - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)[00:00:00]
The Levis that I'm wearing have been good to me[00:00:06]
They just won't admit they're growing old[00:00:13]
Though my shirt's made contact[00:00:18]
With the gutter now and then[00:00:21]
At least it keeps my body from the cold[00:00:25]
Thank God folks back home in Harland County[00:00:30]
Can't see what success has done to me[00:00:36]
Would you believe the kids in Harland High School[00:00:41]
Voted me most likely to succeed [00:00:47]
Now I'm walking on the sidewalks of Chicago[00:00:52]
If I buy the bread I can't afford the wine[00:00:59]
Now I'm walking on the sidewalks of Chicago[00:01:03]
Wishing I had lived some other time[00:01:09]
I wasn't here too long before I met her[00:01:17]
And then later she really swept me off my feet[00:01:23]
And she stayed just long[00:01:29]
Enough to make me love her[00:01:30]
And now they're sweeping me up off the street[00:01:34]
My mama thinks I've really hit the big time[00:01:40]
She's written every day since I've been gone[00:01:45]
But she doesn't know that 109 West Charlotte[00:01:51]
Is the address of the West Side Mission Home[00:01:57]
Now I'm walking on the sidewalks of Chicago[00:02:02]
If I buy the bread I can't afford the wine[00:02:08]
Now I'm walking on the sidewalks of Chicago[00:02:13]
Wishing I had lived some other time[00:02:19]
