Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Bill Bottrell & Sheryl Crow & Kevin M. Gilbert & Dan Schwartz
[00:00.346] 作词 : Bottrell, Crow, Gilbert ...
[00:01.39] Downstairs they're playing kenton
[00:07.26] The house set to swing
[00:09.19]
[00:12.56] I lay in my bed
[00:13.87]
[00:15.25] And listen to everything
[00:17.68]
[00:23.55] Cause Leo's in rare form tonight
[00:26.10]
[00:29.60] His trombone sing's so sweet
[00:31.72]
[00:35.03] This is the room
[00:36.10]
[00:37.41] Where they all come to meet
[00:39.91]
[00:43.65] He said
[00:44.22]
[00:45.90] I do what I can
[00:47.96]
[00:51.39] I live for the moment
[00:53.64]
[00:54.39] And that's who I am
[00:56.82]
[00:59.75] Yeah that's who I am
[01:01.81]
[01:08.61] And isn't it good
[01:09.86]
[01:14.23] If we could freeze moments in time
[01:17.66] We all would
[01:19.60]
[01:22.72] But I do what I can
[01:24.71]
[01:28.52] I do what I can
[01:29.77]
[01:36.82] Downstairs he's playing kenton
[01:38.50]
[01:42.69] The magnavox sighs
[01:44.12]
[01:47.57] But oh how the music has changed
[01:51.00]
[01:51.81] In all of our lives
[01:53.50]
[01:58.80] He says nobody listens
[02:01.30]
[02:04.85] To modern jazz
[02:06.48]
[02:10.03] And I'll never have what those guys have
[02:15.90]
[02:19.08] He says
[02:19.70]
[02:21.20] I do what I can
[02:23.64]
[02:26.88] I work for a living
[02:29.69] And that's who I am
[02:31.87]
[02:34.99] Yeah that's who I am
[02:38.11]
[02:43.54] And it's good to be alive
[02:46.79]
[02:49.28] But everythings different since Leo died
[02:55.02]
[02:57.83] I do what I can
[02:59.83]
[03:12.18] Is this the end of the modern world
[03:14.80]
[03:15.93] What could it mean for a young girl
[03:20.36] Who sees the pain on his face
[03:24.10]
[03:25.22] He does what he can
[03:27.16]
[03:31.15] The procession on the TV screen
[03:33.84]
[03:36.21] What could it possibly mean for a man
[03:40.70] Who's come this far just to turn around
[03:45.25]
[03:49.06] Could there still be life in kentons swing
[03:53.17]
[03:53.92] With the Kennedys' gone and everything
[03:57.17]
[03:58.60] Those sad rows of houses with their optimistic colors
[04:02.41]
[04:03.53] Democrat grandparents and draft-dodging brothers
[04:07.90]
[04:08.46] Riots down the street and discontented mothers
[04:13.52]
[04:14.52] We do what we can
[04:16.26]
[04:29.18] Downstairs it's quiet
[04:31.05]
[04:34.11] Less alive somehow
[04:36.48]
[04:38.85] Somehow he was everything that I am now
[04:45.29]
[04:48.29] And he says
[04:49.10]
[04:50.91] I do what I can
[04:53.34]
[04:56.27] I work for a living
[04:58.96] And that's who I am
[05:01.64]
[05:04.82] And that's who I am
[05:06.70]
[05:13.06] But it's good to be alive
[05:15.49]
[05:18.86] And these are the choices
[05:20.74]
[05:21.55] We make to survive
[05:24.42]
[05:27.35] You do what you can
