Song | Workin' in Corners |
Artist | Nanci Griffith |
Album | Poet in My Window |
作词 : Griffith | |
It's a southern road west of New Orleans | |
I'm fightin' off a cold | |
from these winter rounds | |
Houston | |
She's just around the corner | |
But I think I'll stop off here in Lafayette | |
Lord and have me another round | |
I've been workin' in corners all alone at night | |
Pullin' down whiskey | |
Keepin' my eyes away from the lights | |
I'll never be a fool but I will gamble foolishly | |
I've never let go of love | |
till I lost it in my dreams | |
I don't want to go to sleep | |
'Cause I just might dream | |
I'm stronger now, there was a man in my hometown | |
He sang so pretty | |
I'm glad he turned my head around | |
But I'd forgotten how to play a one night stand | |
Lord I didn't have a word to say | |
Just holdin' that stranger's hand | |
I've been workin' in corners all alone at night | |
Pullin' down whiskey | |
Keepin' my eyes away from the lights | |
I'll never be a fool but I will gamble foolishly | |
I've never let go of love | |
till I lost it in my dreams | |
I don't want to go to sleep | |
'Cause I just might dream | |
These city streets at five in the mornin' | |
I would've stopped to phone you | |
but I'm almost home | |
At my back door | |
there's a porch light that's shinin' | |
I just don't mind livin' here by myself | |
If I leave it on | |
I've been workin' in corners all alone at night | |
Pullin' down whiskey | |
Keepin' my eyes away from the lights | |
I'll never be a fool but I will gamble foolishly | |
I've never let go of love | |
till I lost it in my dreams | |
I don't want to go to sleep | |
'Cause I just might dream | |
I don't want to go to sleep | |
'Cause I just might dream | |
Don't want to go to sleep | |
You know I sure can dream | |
And I sure can dream | |
Sure can dream |
