- Bonnie Raitt That Song About the Midway (2008 Remaster) 歌词
- Bonnie Raitt
When I met you on a midaway at a fair last year
And you stood out like a ruby
In a black man's ear
You were playing on the horses
You were playing on the guitar strings
You were playing like the devil wearing wings
Wearing wings
You looked so grand wearing wings
Do you tie them to your shoulders just to sing
Can you fly I hear you can
Can you fly
Just like an eagle doin' his hunting from the sky
I followed through a sideshow to another town
And I found you in a trailer
On the camping grounds
You were betting on some lover
Shootin' out the dice
And I thought I saw you cheating once or twice
Once or twice I heard ya did
Once or twice
Were you wondering was the gamble
Worth the price
Now you've packed it in
I heard you did packed it in
Was it hard to fold a hand
You knew you could win
Lately you've been hiding
It was somewhere in the news
And I'm still at these races
With my ticket stubs and my blues
The man calls out the numbers
He sometimes mentions mine
But I feel like I've been working overtime
Overtime I've lost my fire overtime
Always playing one more hand for one more dime
Well I'm slowin' down
I'm getting tired slowin' down
And I envy you the valley that you've found
'Cause I'm midway down the midway
Slowin' down down
