Song | In the Shelter |
Artist | Jimmy Buffett |
Album | Live in Mansfield, MA |
作词 : Buffett | |
Lyrics:Jimmy Buffett Music:Jimmy Buffett | |
'Were gonna time travel back to New Orleans | |
Levee along the Mississippi River for an old song, with a little new life' | |
In the shelter, in the morning as | |
the sun was brightly gleaming, | |
I heard her crying out, | |
'What is it all about? I just don't know, | |
but I can't go back home.' | |
Lonely princess, all the days out | |
on your own are growing empty. | |
Nothin' is goin' well; if you | |
could only tell them how you feel. | |
But they're too real to understand. | |
Too many small suggestions ending in | |
forced rejection long ago. | |
Too many innocent faces in too many | |
far-out places; something's wrong. | |
Let me tell you that something's wrong. | |
It's been that way so long, and it's a shame. | |
On the street car to the city, | |
where she knows that she may lose it all, | |
riding for just a dime, | |
takin' her own sweet time and knowing well | |
that this could be her final fall, | |
past the boutique, down the alley, | |
to the river, people pass her by. | |
She sits on the big grey rocks; | |
takes off her boots and socks, | |
not knowing what she will do next; | |
just starts to cry. | |
To many wild rejections ending in | |
angry questions from her dad. | |
To many TV dinners; and everyone | |
loves a winner, but she has lost. | |
No ones knows the trials she had. | |
In the shelter, in the morning as | |
the sun was brightly gleaming, | |
I heard her crying out, | |
'What is it all about? I just | |
don't know, but I can't go back home.' | |
Hell, I just don't know, but | |
I can't go back home. |
