歌曲 | The Rock Of My Soul |
歌手 | Rodney Crowell |
专辑 | The Houston Kid |
作词 : Crowell | |
The rock of my soul went to church on | |
SundayThe rock of my soul went to work on | |
MondayClean across the levy by the railroad tracks | |
The other side of | |
Houston in a two room shack | |
Sweeping out confetti from a third grade classroom | |
The rock of my soul pushed a dust mop broom | |
The rock of my soul didn't have much luck | |
He came to town grinnin' on a flat bed truck | |
The rock of my soul didn't have much charm | |
With the lack of education on a red dirt farm | |
And he was fond of disappearing on an eight day drunk | |
Coming home smelling like a low down skunk | |
And he said | |
I do like | |
I sayNot like | |
I do and you might make me proud | |
Another Houston | |
KidOn a downhill skid for crying out loud | |
I'm a first hand witness to an age old crime | |
A man who hits a woman isn't worth a dime5, 6, 7, 8, 9 years old | |
That's what | |
I remember about the rock of my soul | |
I told him | |
I would kill him if he did not stop it | |
But the rock of my soul just would not drop it | |
I learned to lie like dirt | |
I could steal your shirt and talk with a gun | |
Another Houston | |
KidOn a downhill skid like father like son | |
Now I got out of prison 'bout a year ago | |
Seven long years really went by slow | |
I didn't kill my daddy but my momma tried | |
She shot him with a pistol and he like to a died | |
I'm on probation living straight and true | |
And there's every indication that the past is through | |
That's all | |
I know'Bout the rock of my soul |
