Song | On the 7th Day |
Artist | Etta James |
Album | Heart & Soul / A Retrospective |
作词 : Bowe, Kostas | |
I'm gonna tell you, so you'll understand, | |
About how it all got started, how it all began. | |
God made the heavens, God made the earth. | |
Made a man and a woman out of blood, sweat and dirt. | |
And he looked around the neighbourhood. | |
And he said to himself: This is good. | |
God made the rivers, and the mountains with his hands. | |
God made the wind to blow the shifting sands. | |
He put the fishes in the deep blue sea. | |
Filled up the garden with flowers and the trees. | |
And he looked around the neighbourhood. | |
And he said to himself: This is Good. | |
But the devil, he was jealous, | |
Took the apple in his hand. | |
The devil tempted woman, and woman tempted man. | |
God he mourned, and the tears rolled down his face. | |
It broke his heart to see his children fall from grace. | |
And on the 7th day, they say God rested, but you know that ain't the truth. | |
Cause on the 7th day, God made the blues. | |
God made the blues. | |
The Blues has been around ever since that day. | |
Everybody gets the blues, everybody got to pay. | |
For the wicked things we do, and what we put each other trough. | |
And on the 7th day, they say God rested, but you know that ain't the truth. | |
Cause on the 7th day, God made the blues. | |
Cause on the 7th day, God made the blues. | |
God made the blues |
