歌词

[00:00.06] 5 Chinese Brothers
[01:23.19] Stone Soup
[01:24.09] Like A Mole In The Ground
[01:24.63] Like a Mole in the Ground
[01:25.35] Tom Meltzer
[01:25.86] Based on Bascom Lunsford's Mole in the Ground
[01:26.67] I wish that I was a mole in the ground
[01:27.45] Like a mole in the ground I would root that mountain down
[01:28.56] Tree by tree and town by town
[01:29.46] I wish I was a mole in the ground
[01:30.27] And I wish that I was a lizard in the spring
[01:31.32] Like a lizard in the spring I would hear the robin sing
[01:32.64] I'd feast upon the robin's eggs and I'd not regret a thing
[01:34.20] I wish I was a lizard in the spring
[01:35.07] But I'm just a man who loves a woman who's drifting away
[01:36.39] The miles and miles between us grow wider every day
[01:37.47] I wish that I was strong or free or not in love or dead
[01:38.70] Better still I wish I was a mole in the ground
[01:39.75] I don't like working for the railroad man
[01:40.65] For the railroad will kill you just as fast as it can
[01:42.15] It drinks your blood like wine and throws your bones to the wind
[01:43.56] I don't like working for the railroad man
[01:44.58] And Tempy oh Tempy wants a 100 shawl
[01:45.12] But I got 90 90 that is all
[01:45.66] Our house is not a home it's just a roof and four walls
[01:46.77] But Tempy wants a 100 shawl
[01:47.34] Tempy oh Tempy let your hair hang low
[01:48.12] Let your hair hang low while I rosin up my bow
[01:49.05] We'll pretend we are lovers like we were so long ago
[02:31.80] Tempy let your hair hang low
[02:32.70] I wish I was a mole in the ground etc
[02:33.60] Don't wait up for me 'cause tonight I think I'm going downtown
