Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Jon Bon Jovi
[00:01.00] 作词 : BonJovi
[00:18.580] Across the border they turn
[00:21.520] Water into wine
[00:24.210] Some say it's the devil's blood
[00:27.270] They're squeezing from the vine
[00:30.210] Some say it's a saviour
[00:32.590] In these hard and desperate times
[00:36.280] For me it helps me to forget
[00:39.040] That we're just born to die
[00:56.510] I came here like so many did
[00:59.320] To find the better life
[01:02.320] To find my piece of easy street
[01:05.380] To finally be alive
[01:07.880] And I know nothing good comes easy
[01:11.140] And all good things take some time
[01:14.320] I made my bed I'll lie in it
[01:17.260] To die in it's the crime
[01:20.450] You can't help but prosper
[01:23.070] Where the streets are paved with gold
[01:26.070] They say the oil wells ran deeper here
[01:29.330] than anybody's known
[01:32.140] I packed up on my wife and kid
[01:35.390] And left them back at home
[01:38.330] Now there's nothing in this paydirt
[01:41.330] The ghosts are all I know
[01:43.890] Now the oil's gone
[01:46.890] The money's gone
[01:50.200] And the jobs are gone
[01:52.830] Still we're hangin'on
[01:55.830] Down in dry county
[01:59.330] They're swimming in the sand
[02:01.840] Praying for some holy water
[02:05.340] To wash the sins from off our hand
[02:08.900] Here in dry county
[02:11.400] The promise has run dry
[02:14.400] Where nobody cries
[02:17.460] And no one's getting out of here alive
[02:32.660] In the blessed name of Jesus
[02:35.470] I heard a preacher say
[02:38.660] That we are God's children
[02:41.410] And He'd be back someday
[02:44.660] And I hoped that he knew
[02:47.840] Something as he drank his cup of wine
[02:50.530] I didn't have too good of a feeling
[02:53.220] As I head out to the night
[02:56.410] I cursed the sky to open
[02:59.290] I begged the clouds for rain
[03:02.540] I prayed to God for water
[03:04.980] For this burning in my veins
[03:08.350] It was like my soul's on fire
[03:11.420] And I had to watch the flames
[03:14.350] All my dreams went up in ashes
[03:17.230] And my future blew away
