Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Cash, Monk
[00:08.78] Nowhere to live, nowhere to fall
[00:12.95] He used to have money, but he's wasted it all
[00:17.20] His face is a photograph burned in my mind
[00:21.30] But I pretend not to see him for the twenty-first time
[00:29.25] He sleeps under stars, that's all he can afford
[00:33.50] His blanket's an old coat he's had since the war
[00:37.88] He stands on the corner of Carter and Vine
[00:42.00] But I pretend not to see him for the twenty-first time
[00:49.85] He may be a drifter, he's grown old and gray
[00:54.10] But what if he's Jesus and I walk away?
[00:58.50] I say I'm the body and drink of the wine
[01:02.55] But I pretend not to see him for the twenty-first time
[01:08.58]
[01:14.76] She's twenty-nine but she feels forty-eight
[01:19.15] She can't raise three kids on minimum wage
[01:23.40] She's cryin' in back of the welfare line
[01:27.50] But I pretend not to see her for the twenty-first time
[01:35.25] She may be a stranger tryin' to get through the day
[01:39.65] But what if it's Jesus and I walk away?
[01:44.00] I say I'm the body and drink of the wine
[01:48.10] But I pretend not to see her for the twenty-first time
[01:53.87]
[02:13.45] This is a call for a change in my heart
[02:17.75] I realize that I've not been doin' my part
[02:21.75] When I needed a Savior, I found it in Him
[02:26.44] He gave to me, now I'll give back to them
[02:30.75] Drifter or stranger, father or son
[02:35.00] I'll look for Jesus in every one
[02:39.45] 'Cause I am the body and drink of the wine
[02:44.35] And I'm thankful there's more than the twenty-first time
