[00:00.00] 作曲 : Joan Baez
[00:05.34]  Billy Rose was a low rider, Billy Rose was a night fighter
[00:10.68] Billy Rose knew trouble like the sound of his own name
[00:16.53] Busted on a drunken charge
[00:19.02] Driving someone else's car
[00:21.48] The local midnight sheriff's claim to fame
[00:26.49] In an Arizona jail there are some who tell the tale how
[00:31.38] Billy fought the sergeant for some milk that he demanded
[00:37.50] Knowing they'd remain the boss
[00:39.99] Knowing he would pay the cost
[00:42.42] They saw he was severely reprimanded
[00:49.71] In the blackest cell on A Block
[00:56.28] He hanged himself at dawn
[00:59.37] With a note stuck to the bunk head
[01:04.17] Don't mess with me, just take me home
[01:08.91] Come and lay, help us lay
[01:19.29] young Billy down
[01:19.59] Luna was a Mexican the law calls an alien
[01:23.79] For coming across the border with a baby and a wife
[01:30.03] Though the clothes upon his back were wet
[01:32.58] Still he thought that he could get
[01:34.80] Some money and things to start a life
[01:39.93] It hadn't been too very long when it seemed like everything went wrong
[01:45.30] Didn't even have the time to find themselves a home
[01:50.94] This foreigner, a brown-skin male
[01:53.55] Thrown inside a Texas jail
[01:55.95] It left the wife and baby quite alone
[02:04.83] He eased the pain inside him
[02:10.11] With a needle in his arm
[02:14.58] But the **** just crucified him
[02:17.88] He died to no one's great alarm
[02:22.44] Come and lay, help us lay
[02:25.59] Poor Luna down
[02:32.04] And we'll raze, raze the prisons
[02:36.84] To the ground
[02:42.24] Kilowatt was an aging con of 65 who stood a chance to stay alive
[02:48.21] And leave the joint and walk the streets again
[02:52.92] As the time he was to leave drew near
[02:55.44] He suffered all the joy and fear
[02:57.87] Of leaving 35 years in the pen
[03:05.37] And on the day of his release he was approached by the police
[03:10.11] Who took him to the warden walking slowly by his side
[03:16.26] The warden said You won't remain here
[03:18.90] But it seems a state retainer
[03:21.15] Claims another 10 years of your life.
[03:27.96] He stepped out in the Texas sunlight
[03:33.39] The cops all stood around
[03:39.72] Old Kilowatt ran 50 yards
[03:42.87] Then threw himself down on the ground
[03:47.10] They might as well just have laid
[03:50.64] The old man down
[03:57.15] And we're gonna raze, raze the prisons
[04:02.01] To the ground
[04:06.78] Help us raze, raze the prisons
[04:11.55] To the ground
