作曲 : Gil Scott Heron
Ever feel kinda down and out, you don’t know just what to do?
Living all of your days in darkness let the sun shine through.
Ever feel that somehow, somewhere, you’ve lost your way?
And if you don’t get help quick you won’t make it through the day.
Could you call on Lady Day?
You could call on John Coltrane.
‘Cause they’ll wash your troubles away.
Plastic people with plastic minds are on their way to plastic homes.
No beginning there ain’t no ending it’s just on and on and on and on and on and it’s
all because they’re so afraid to say they’re alone.
Until our hero rides in on his saxophone.
You could call on Lady Day.
Could you call on John Coltrane?
Now they’ll wash your troubles away.
Let ‘em wash your troubles away.
Lady Day. John Coltrane.
Mary J. Illa J.
Could you call on Mary J?
You can call on Illa J.
‘Cause they’ll wash your troubles away!
