Powderfinger - Neil Young

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Young
[00:14.041]Look out, Mama, there's a white boat coming up the river
[00:22.139]With a big red beacon, and a flag, and a man on the rail
[00:30.576]I think you'd better call John
[00:33.241]Because it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail
[00:39.432]And it's less than a mile away
[00:44.029]I hope they didn't come to stay
[00:47.974]It's got numbers on the side and a gun
[00:51.657]And it's making big waves
[01:05.972]Daddy's gone, my brother's out hunting in the mountains
[01:14.070]Big John's been drinking since the river took Emmy-Lou
[01:22.612]So the powers that be left me here to do the thinking
[01:31.311]And I just turned twenty-two
[01:35.673]I was wondering what to do
[01:40.219]And the closer they got
[01:42.517]The more those feelings grew
[01:48.996]...
[02:48.842]Daddy's rifle in my hand felt reassuring
[02:56.757]He told me, Red means run, son, numbers add up to nothing
[03:05.665]But when the first shot hit the docks I saw it coming
[03:13.920]Raised my rifle to my eye
[03:18.596]Never stopped to wonder why
[03:23.193]Then I saw black
[03:24.970]And my face splashed in the sky
[03:31.579]...
[04:30.955]Shelter me from the powder and the finger
[04:39.549]Cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger
[04:47.700]Think of me as one you'd never figured
[04:56.033]Would fade away so young
[05:01.153]With so much left undone
[05:05.567]Remember me to my love
[05:08.232]I know I'll miss her
[05:16.852]...
