[00:00.000] 作词 : Waits
[00:07.06]Well it's 9th and Hennepin
[00:09.99]And all the donuts have
[00:11.11]Names that sound like prostitutes
[00:13.99]And the moon's teeth marks are
[00:16.80]On the sky like a tarp thrown over all this
[00:20.05]And the broken umbrellas like
[00:21.49]Dead birds and the steam
[00:23.05]Comes out of the grill like
[00:24.49]The whole goddamned town is ready to blow.
[00:28.11]And the bricks are all scarred with jailhouse tattoos
[00:32.42]And everyone is behaving like dogs.
[00:36.67]And the horses are coming down Violin Road
[00:39.23]And Dutch is dead on his feet
[00:41.80]And the rooms all smell like diesel
[00:43.42]And you take on the
[00:44.92]Dreams of the ones who have slept here.
[00:47.80]And I'm lost in the window
[00:50.11]I hide on the stairway
[00:51.55]I hang in the curtain
[00:52.73]I sleep in your hat
[00:55.74]And no one brings anything
[00:56.94]Small into a bar around here.
[00:59.07]They all started out with bad directions
[01:02.13]And the girls behind the counter has a tattooed tear,
[01:04.88]One for every year he's away she said, such
[01:08.50]A crumbling beauty, but there's
[01:11.00]Nothing wrong with her that
[01:12.44]$100 won't fix, she has that razor sadness
[01:16.50]That only gets worse
[01:17.76]With the clang and the thunder of the
[01:19.94]Southern Pacific going by
[01:21.75]As the clock ticks out like a dripping faucet
[01:23.88]Till you're full of rag water and bitters and blue ruin
[01:29.38]And you spill out
[01:30.19]Over the side to anyone who'll listen
[01:33.57]And I've seen it
[01:34.50]All through the yellow windows
[01:38.94]Of the evening train.
