Kris Kristofferson [영화배우, 가수]

I took myself down to the Tally Ho Tavern
To buy me a bottle of beer
I sat me down by a tender young maiden
Whose eyes were as dark as her hair
And as I was searching from bottle to bottle
For something un-foolish to say
That silver tounged devil just slipped from the shadows
And smilingly stole her away
I said Hey, little girl don't you know he's the devil
He's everything that I ain't
Hiding intentions of evil under the smile of a saint
All he's good for is getting in trouble
And shifting his share of the blame
And some people swear he's my double
And some even say we're the same
But the silver-tounged devil's got nothing to lose
And I'll only live 'till I die
We take our own chances and pay our own dues
The silver tounged devil and I

Like all the fair maidens who've laid down beside him
She knew in her heart that he lied
But nothing that I could have said could have saved her
No matter how hard that she tried
'Cause she'll offer her charms to the darkness and danger
Of something that she's never known
And open her arms at the smile of a stranger
Who'll love her and leave her alone

and that know he's the devil
He's everything that I ain't
Hiding intentions of evil under the smile of a saint
All he's good for is getting in trouble
And shifting his share of the blame
And some people swear he's my double
And some even say we're the same
But the silver-tounged devil's got nothing to lose
And I'll only live 'till I die
We take our own chances and pay our own dues

The silver tounged devil and I

I've seen the morning burning golden on the mountains in the skies

Aching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she flies

Turning on the world the way she smiles upon my soul as i lay diing

Healing with the colors of the sunshine and the shadow of her eyes

Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin

Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that i've been

Teaching me that yesterday was something that i never thought of trying

Talking about tomorrow and the money love and time we'd have to spend

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Coming close together with a feeling that i've never know before,in my time

She ain't afraid to be a woman or afraid to be a friend

I don't know the answer to the easy way she opens every door in my mind

Dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna end

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Busted flat in Baton rouge
Headin' for the train
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down
Just before it rained
Took us all the way to New Orleans
I took my harpoon out of
my dirty red bandanna
I was blowin' sad while
Bobby sang the blues
With them windshield wipers slappin' time
And Bobby clappin' hands
We finally sang up every song
that driver knew
Freedom's just another word
for nothin' left to lose
And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
Feelin' good was easy, Lord,
when Bobby sang the blues
Feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
From the coal mines of Kentucky
To the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Standin' right beside me
Through everything I've done
And every night he kept me from the cold
Then somewhere near Salinas
Load, I let him slip away
Lookin' for the home I hope he'll find
And I'll trade all my tomorrows
for a single yesterday
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine
Freedom's just another word
for nothin' left to lose
And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
Feelin' good was easy, Lord,
when Bobby sang the blues
Buddy, that was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

Take the ribbon from my hair
머리의 리본을 떼어보세요
Shake it loose let it fall
머리를 풀어 살며시 늘어뜨려요
Layin' soft up on my skin
벽에 비친 그림자처럼
Like the shadows on the wall
내곁에 살며시 누워 보세요

Come and lay down by my side
이리 와서 내 옆에 누워요
Till the early morning light
아침 햇살이 비칠 때까지
All I'm takin' is your time
당신의 시간을 내게 주세요
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 샐 수 있도록 도와주세요

I don't care who's right or wrong
누가 옳은지 그른지 개의치 않아요
And i won't try to understand
이해하려고 노력하지도 않아요
Let the devil take tomorrow
내일은 신경쓰지 말아요
Lord tonight I need a friend
오늘 밤 난 친구가 필요해요

Yesterday is dead and gone
어제는 사라져 버렸고
And tomorrow's out of sight
내일 일은 알지 못해요
And it's sad to be alone
홀로있는 건 서글프니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

I don't want to be alone
홀로있고 싶지 않으니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

Don't look so sad
I know it's over
But life goes on and this
old world will keep on turning
Let's just be glad we had some time
to spend together
There's no need to watch the bridges
that we're burning
Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and
tender body close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blowing soft against the window
And make believe you
love me one more time
For the good times
I'll get along
you'll find another
And I'll be here
if you should find you ever need me
Don't say a word
about tomorrow or forever
There'll be time enough
for sadness when you leave me
Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and
tender body close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blowing soft against the window
And make believe you
love me one more time
For the good times

Well I woke up Sunday morning
with no way to hold my head, that didn't hurt
and the beer I had for breakfast
wasn't bad so I had one more for dessert
then I fumbled through my closet for my clothes
and found my cleanest dirty shirt
it's the one I'm wearin'
and I shaved my face and combed my hair
and stumbled down the stairs to meet the day
I'd smoked my brain the night before
with cigarettes and songs that I've been pickin'
but I lit my first and watched a small kid
cussin' at a can that he was kicking
then I crossed the empty street
and caught the Sunday smell of someone fryin' chicken
and it took me back to somethin'
that I'd lost somehow somewhere along the way
On the Sunday morning sidewalks
wishing Lord that I was stoned
'cause there is something in a Sunday
that makes a body feel alone
and there's nothin' short of dyin'
half as lonesome as the sound
on the sleepin' city side walks
Sunday mornin' comin' down
In the park I saw a daddy
with a laughing little girl who he was swingin'
and I stopped beside a Sunday school
and listened to the song that they were singin'
then I headed back for home and
somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin'
and it echoed thru the canyon like
the disappearing dreams of yesterday.
On the Sunday morning sidewalks
wishing Lord that I was stoned
'cause there is something in a Sunday
that makes a body feel alone
and there's nothin' short of dyin'
half as lonesome as the sound
on the sleepin' city side walks
Sunday mornin' comin' down.

If you're feeling salty,then I'm your tequila
If you've got the freedom I've got the time
There ain't nothing sweeter than naked emotions
So you show me yours, hon, and I'll show you mine

No ma'm I know this ain't all that you've ever been used to
You with your rings on your fingers and time on your hands
Sometimes it's nice to have somebody nice to be close to
God knows I've been there before you and I understand

Chorus.

I wish that I was the answer to all of your questions
God knows I know you wish you were the answer to mine
Darling if you ain't a thing but a change in direction
Lord don't you know you'd be somethin' I'm lucky to find

Chorus.

So you show me yours and I'll show you mine.

See him wasted on the sidewalk in his jacket and his jeans,
Wearin' yesterday's misfortunes like a smile--
Once he had a future full of money, love, and dreams,
Which he spent like they was goin' outta style--
And he keeps right on a'changin' for the better or the worse,
Searchin' for a shrine he's never found--
Never knowin' if believin' is a blessin' or a curse,
Or if the goin' up was worth the comin' down--

He's a poet, he's a picker--
He's a prophet, he's a pusher--
He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.

He has tasted good and evil in your bedrooms and your bars,
And he's traded in tomorrow for today--
Runnin' from his devils, lord, and reachin' for the stars,
And losin' all he's loved along the way--
But if this world keeps right on turnin' for the better or the worse,
And all he ever gets is older and around--
>from the rockin' of the cradle to the rollin' of the hearse,
The goin' up was worth the comin' down--

He's a poet, he's a picker--
He's a prophet, he's a pusher--
He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.
There's a lotta wrong directions on that lonely way back home.

Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing

Maybe she was smilin' in the mirror
Maybe I was too, 'cause I was stoned
Singin' every sad song
on the juke-box one more time
Honey, they were hittin' close to home
And I said -
Maybe this'll make you think I'm crazy
Honey, don't feel lonesome if you do
If you wanna make a young man
happy one more time
I'd sure like to spend the night with you
And she said - Stranger
Shut out the light and lead me
Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too
And while we lay there,
makin' believe you love me
Stranger, could I believe in you

Maybe you got all you got together
Maybe you keep rollin' like a stone
Maybe some old lonesome song will
take you by surprise
And leave you just a little more alone
Singing - Stranger
Shut out the light and lead me
Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too
And while we lay there,
makin' believe you love me
Stranger, could I believe in you
Keep Singing - Stranger
Shut out the light and lead me
Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too
And while we lay there,
makin' believe you love me
Stranger, could I believe in you

I said I got a life of my own
I've got a life of my own

I said, don't try to make me a part of no plan
Take me or leave me alone
Freedom's a feeling that few understand
And i got a life of my own
I said i ought to know where to sow my own seeds
And when i oughta leave it alone
Trouble's an old friend that i didn't need then
And i had a wife of my own.

I said I got a life of my own
I've got a life of my own

I caught a beer bottle flat in the face
It laid me back to the bone
Hate is a flavor that's ugly to taste
I had a knife of my own

Now they leave me alone and alive by myself
Lost in the steel and the stone
Hopin' for heaven and headin' for hell
I've got a life of my own

I said I got a life of my own
I've got a life of my own

Why me Lord, what have I ever done
To deserve even one Of the pleasures I've known
주여.. 제가 아는 행복한것들중에서
어느 하나라도 즐길만한 어떤 일을
제가 한 적이 있는지요..

Tell me Lord,
말해주세요.주여..
what did I ever do That was worth loving you
내가 당신을 사랑할 가치가 있는
어떤 일을 한 적이 있는지
Or the kindness you've shown
혹은 내게 보여준 친절에 보답을 했는지

Lord help me Jesus,
도와주세요 주여
I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am
모든걸 낭비했어요.
내가 내 자신을 잘 알고 있으니 나를 도와주세요.

Now that I know that I've need you so Help me Jesus,
이제 당신이 간절히 필요한걸 알고 있으니
도와주세요.주여..
my soul's in your hand
내 영혼은 당신 손에 달려있답니다

Try me Lord, if you think there's a way
I can try to repay All I've taken from you
당신으로부터 받아온 모든 것들을
제가 갚을 수 있는 방법이 있다고
주님께서 생각하신다면 절 시험하세요.

Maybe Lord, I can show someone else
What I've been through myself On my way back to you
아마도 내가 다른 사람에게 내가 걸어왔던 길을 끝내고
당신에게 가고 있단걸 보여줄 수 있을것 같습니다

Lord help me Jesus,
도와주세요 주여
I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am
모든걸 낭비했어요.
내가 내 자신을 잘 알고 있으니 나를 도와주세요.
Now that I know that I've need you so Help me Jesus,
이제 당신이 간절히 필요한걸 알고 있으니
도와주세요.주여..
my soul's in your hand
내 영혼은 당신 손에 달려있답니다

If a cheated man's a loser
And a cheater never wins
And if beggars can't be choosers
'Til they're weak and wealthy men
And the old keep gettin' older
And the young must do the same
And it's never gettin' better
Who's to bless, and who's to blame
All the cards are on the table
You done laid your money down
Don't complain about your chances, boy
It's the only game in town
And the meaning doesn't matter
Nor the way you play the game
To the winner or the loser
Who's to bless, and who's to blame

Keep your hands above the table
And your back against the wall
Toss your chips in with your chances, boy
Let 'em lay the way they fall
Cause the moral doesn't matter
Broken rules are all the same
To the broken or the breaker
Who's to bless, and who's to blame

Take the ribbon from my hair
머리의 리본을 떼어보세요
Shake it loose let it fall
머리를 풀어 살며시 늘어뜨려요
Layin' soft up on my skin
벽에 비친 그림자처럼
Like the shadows on the wall
내곁에 살며시 누워 보세요

Come and lay down by my side
이리 와서 내 옆에 누워요
Till the early morning light
아침 햇살이 비칠 때까지
All I'm takin' is your time
당신의 시간을 내게 주세요
Help me make it through the night

오늘 밤 난 친구가 필요해요

Yesterday is dead and gone

And it's sad to be alone

my mouth was like an ashtray I'd been lickin'

Don't look so sad, I know it's over
그토록 슬프게 바라보지 말아요,
난 그것이 끝난 걸 알지만
But life goes on
인생은 계속 흘러 가자나요.
And this old world just keeps on turning
그리고 이 오래된 세상은 계속 돌기만 하네요.

Let's just be glad, we had this time
To spend together
그저 기쁘게 삽시다.
우리에겐 함께보낼 이 시간이 있자나요.
There's no need to watch the bridges
That were burning.
다리들을 바라 볼 필요가 없어요.
그것들은 불타고 있어요.
Lay your head on my pillow
머리를 내 베게위로하고 누우세요
Hold your warm and tender body next to mine
당신의 따뜻하고 부드러운 몸을 붙잡아서 간직할께요.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
속삭이듯 들려오는 빗소리를 들어 보세요.
Beating soft against the window
부드럽게 창가를 두드리고 있네요.
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times.
그리고 믿음을 가지고 날 한번더 사랑해줘요..
좋은 날(시간,시절)을 위해서

I'll get along You'll find another
난 외로울 겁니다, 당신은 또 다른 것을 찾는다면.
And I'll be here if you should find
You ever need me.
그리고 당신이 내가 필요해서 나를 찾고자 한다면,
난 여기서 있을겁니다.
Don't say a word
About tomorrow or forever
내일 또는 영원히에 대해서 단어로 말하지 마세요.
There'll be time enough
For sadness when you leave.
당신이 떠날 때 슬플 수 있는 충분한 시간이 될겁니다.

I've seen the morning burning golden on the mountains in the skies

Aching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she flies

Turning on the world the way she smiles upon my soul as i lay diing

Healing with the colors of the sunshine and the shadow of her eyes

Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin

Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that i've been

Teaching me that yesterday was something that i never thought of trying

Talking about tomorrow and the money love and time we'd have to spend

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Coming close together with a feeling that i've never know before,in my time

She ain't afraid to be a woman or afraid to be a friend

I don't know the answer to the easy way she opens every door in my mind

Dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna end

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

A couple of years back I come across
a great and wasted friend of mine in
the hallway of a recording studio.

And while he was reciting some poetry to me
that he had written, I saw that he was
about a step away from dying,
and I couldn't help but wonder why.

And the lines of this song occurred to me.
I'm happy to say he's no longer wasted,
and he's got him a good woman.
And I'd like to dedicate this to John and June,
who helped showed me how to beat the devil.

It was wintertime in Nashville
Down on Music City Row
And I was looking for a place
And to get myself out of the cold
To warm the frozen feeling
that was eating at my soul
Keep the chilly wind off my guitar

My thirsty wanted whiskey
But my hunger needed beans
But it had been a month of paydays
Since I'd heard that eagle scream

So with a stomach full of empty
And a pocket full of dreams
I left my pride and stepped inside a bar

Actually I'd guess you'd call it a tavern
Cigarette smoke to the ceiling
And sawdust on the floor
Friendly shadows

I saw that there was
just one old man sitting at the bar
And in the mirror I could see him
checking me and my guitar
And he turned and said,

Come up here, boy,
and show us what you are
I said I'm dry, and he bought me a beer

He nodded at my guitar and said,
It's a tough life, ain't it?
I just looked at him
He said, you ain't making
any money, are you?

I said, you been reading my mail
He just smiled and said,
let me see that guitar
I got something you ought to hear
And then he laid it on me

If you waste your time talking
To the people who don't listen
To the things that you are saying
Who do you thinks gonna hear?

And if you should die explaining how
The things that they complain about
Are things they could be changing
Who do you thinks gonna care?

There were other lonely singers
In a world turned deaf and blind
Who were crucified for
what they tried to show

And their voice have been
scattered by the swirling winds of time.
'Cos the truth remains
that no one wants to know.

Well, the old man was a stranger,
but I'd heard his song before,
Back when failure had me locked
out on the wrong side of the door.

When no one stood behind me
but my shadow on the floor,
And lonesome was more
than a state of mind.

You see, the devil haunts a hungry man,
If you don't wanna join him,
you got to beat him.
I ain't sayin' I beat the devil,
but I drank his beer for nothing.
Then I stole his song.

And you still can hear me singin'
to the people who don't listen,
To the things that I am sayin',
prayin' someone's gonna hear.

And I guess I'll die explaining how
the things that they complain about,
Are things they could be changin',
hopin' someone's gonna care.

I was born a lonely singer,
and I'm bound to die the same,
But I've got to feed the
hunger in my soul.

And if I never have a nickle,
I won't ever die ashamed.
'Cos I don't believe that
no one wants to know -

Why me Lord, what have I ever done
To deserve even one Of the pleasures I've known
주여.. 제가 아는 행복한것들중에서

Who's right or wrong
We've been injuring each other
For much too long
And it's too late to try to save
What might have been
It's over
Nobody wins
Make believin in forever
Is just a lie
And it seems a little sadder
Each time we try
'Cause it's a shame to make
The same mistakes again
And again
It's over.
Nobody wins
We've gone too far too long
Too far apart
The lovin' was easy
It's the livin' that's hard
And there's no need to stay and see
The way it ends
It's over.
Nobody wins

See him wasted on the sidewalk in his jacket and his jeans,

Never knowin' if believin' is a blessin' or a curse,
Or if the goin' up was worth the comin' down--

He's a poet, he's a picker--
He's a prophet, he's a pusher--
He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.

He has tasted good and evil in your bedrooms and your bars,
And he's traded in tomorrow for today--
Runnin' from his devils, lord, and reachin' for the stars,
And losin' all he's loved along the way--
But if this world keeps right on turnin' for the better or the worse,
And all he ever gets is older and around--
>from the rockin' of the cradle to the rollin' of the hearse,
The goin' up was worth the comin' down--

He's a poet, he's a picker--
He's a prophet, he's a pusher--
He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.
There's a lotta wrong directions on that lonely way back home.

Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing

I've seen the morning burning golden on the mountains in the skies

Aching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she flies

Turning on the world the way she smiles upon my soul as i lay diing

Healing with the colors of the sunshine and the shadow of her eyes

Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin

Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that i've been

Teaching me that yesterday was something that i never thought of trying

Talking about tomorrow and the money love and time we'd have to spend

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Coming close together with a feeling that i've never know before,in my time

She ain't afraid to be a woman or afraid to be a friend

I don't know the answer to the easy way she opens every door in my mind

Dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna end

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Mister Marvin Middle Class is really in a stew
Wond'rin' what the younger generation's coming to
And the taste of his martini doesn't please his bitter tongue
Blame it on the Rolling Stones.

Blame it on the Stones; blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better, knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; save the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Mother tells the ladies at the bridge club every day
Of the rising price of tranquilizers she must pay
And she wonders why the children never seem to stay at home
Blame it on the Rolling Stones.

Blame it on the Stones; Blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better, knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; save the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Father's at the office, nightly working all the time
Trying to make the secretary change her little mind
And it bothers him to read about so many broken homes
Blame it on those Rolling Stones.

Blame it on the Stones; Blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; same the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Blame it on the stones, blame it on the stones.

A couple of years back I come across a great and wasted friend of mine in the hallway of a recording studio. And while he was reciting some poetry to me that he had written, I saw that he was about a step away from dying, and I couldn't help but wonder why. And the lines of this song occurred to me. I'm happy to say he's no longer wasted, and he's got him a good woman. And I'd like to dedicate this to John and June, who helped showed me how to beat the devil.

It was wintertime in Nashville
Down on Music City Row
And I was looking for a place
And to get myself out of the cold
To warm the frozen feeling that was eating at my soul
Keep the chilly wind off my guitar
My thirsty wanted whiskey
But my hunger needed beans
But it had been a month of paydays
Since I'd heard that eagle scream
So with a stomach full of empty
And a pocket full of dreams
I left my pride and stepped inside a bar
Actually I'd guess you'd call it a tavern
Cigarette smoke to the ceiling
And sawdust on the floor
Friendly shadows
I saw that there was just one old man sitting at the bar
And in the mirror I could see him checking me and my guitar
And he turned and said,
Come up here, boy, and show us what you are
I said I'm dry, and he bought me a beer
He nodded at my guitar and said,
It's a tough life, ain't it?
I just looked at him
He said, you ain't making any money, are you?
I said, you been reading my mail
He just smiled and said, let me see that guitar
I got something you ought to hear
And then he laid it on me

If you waste your time a talking
To the people who don't listen
To the things that you are saying
Who do you thinks gonna hear?
And if you should die explaining how
The things that they complain about
Are things they could be changing
Who do you thinks gonna care?
There were other lonely singers
In a world turned deaf and blind
Who were crucified for what they tried to show
And their voic

Busted flat in Baton Rouge,
headin' for the train,
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down,
just before it rained;

Took us all the way to New Orleans.
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna,
And was blowing sad while Bobby sang the blues.
With them windshield wipers slappin' time,
And Bobby clappin' hands,
We finally sang up every song that driver knew.

Freedom's just another word for
nothing' left to lose:
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free.
Feeling good was easy, Lord,
when Bobby sang the blues.

Feeling good was good enough for me;
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

From the coal mines of
Kentucky to the California sun,
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul.
Standin' right beside me, Lord,
through everything I've done,
Every night she kept me from the cold.

Then somewhere near Salinas,
Lord, I let her slip away,
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find.
And I'd trade all my tomorrows
for a single yesterday,
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine.

Freedom's just another word for
nothing' left to lose:
Nothin' left is all she left for me.
Feeling good was easy, Lord,
when Bobby sang the blues.
Buddy, that was good enough for me;
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

La da da la la na na na
La da da na na.
La la la da, Me and Bobby McGee.
La la la la la da da da
La la la da da.
La la la da, Me and Bobby McGee.

La la la la la na na na
La la la da da.
La da da da, Me and Bobby McGee.
La la la la la da da da-

I was runnin' through the summer rain
Tryin' to catch the evenin' train
An' kill that old familiar pain
Weavin' through my tangled brain
But when I tipped my bottle back
I smacked into a cop I didn't see

That policeman said, "Mister Cool
If you ain't drunk, then you're a fool"
I said, "If that's against the law
Then tell me why I never saw
A man locked in that jail of yours
Who wasn't just as low down poor as me??

Well, that was when someone turned out the lights
An' I wound up in jail to spend the night
An' dream of all the wine an' lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds

Well, I woke up next mornin'
Feelin' like my head was gone
An' like my thick old tongue was lickin'
Something sick an' wrong
An' I told that man I'd sell my soul
For somethin' wet an' cold as that old cell

That kindly jailer grinned at me
All eaten up with sympathy
Then poured he self another beer
An' came an' whispered in my ear
"If booze was just a dime a bottle, boy
You couldn't even buy the smell"

I said, "I knew there was somethin' I liked about this town
But it takes more than that to bring me down, down, down
'Cause there's still a lot of wine an' lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds?

Well, they finally came an' told me
They was a gonna set me free
An' I'd be leavin' town
If I knew what was good for me
I said, "It's nice to learn
that everybody's so concerned about my health"

I said, "I won't be leavin' no more
Quicker than I can
'Cause I've enjoyed about as much
Of this as I can stand
An' I don't need this town of yours
More than I never needed nothin' else"

'Cause there's still a lot of drinks that I ain't drunk
An' lots of pretty thoughts that I ain't thunk
An' Lord, there's still so many lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds

Take the ribbon from my hair
머리의 리본을 떼어보세요
Shake it loose let it fall
머리를 풀어 살며시 늘어뜨려요
Layin' soft up on my skin
벽에 비친 그림자처럼
Like the shadows on the wall
내곁에 살며시 누워 보세요

Come and lay down by my side
이리 와서 내 옆에 누워요
Till the early morning light
아침 햇살이 비칠 때까지
All I'm takin' is your time
당신의 시간을 내게 주세요
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 샐 수 있도록 도와주세요

I don't care who's right or wrong
누가 옳은지 그른지 개의치 않아요
And i won't try to understand
이해하려고 노력하지도 않아요
Let the devil take tomorrow
내일은 신경쓰지 말아요
Lord tonight I need a friend
오늘 밤 난 친구가 필요해요

Yesterday is dead and gone
어제는 사라져 버렸고
And tomorrow's out of sight
내일 일은 알지 못해요
And it's sad to be alone
홀로있는 건 서글프니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

I don't want to be alone
홀로있고 싶지 않으니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

"Billy Dalton staggered on the sidewalk
Someone said he stumbled and he fell,
Six squad cars came screaming to the rescue
And hauled ol' Billy Dalton off to jail.
Because the law is for protection of the people
Rules are rules and any fool can see,
We don't need no drunks like Billy Dalton
Scaring decent folks like you 'n me'
No Sireee

Lee Honeycut was nothin' but a hippy
Walking through this world without a care,
Then one day six strappin' brave policemen
Held down Homer Lee and cut his hair,
Because the law is for protection of the people
Rules are rules and any fool can see,
We don't need no hairy headed hippies
Scarin' decent folks like you 'n me
No Sireee

So thank your lucky stars you got protection
Walk the line and never mind the cost
Don't wonder who them lawmen was protectin'
When they nailed the saviour to the cross.
Because the law is for protection of the people
Rules are rules and any fool can see,
We don't need riddle speakin' prophets
Scarin' decent folks like you 'n me
No Sireee

"

Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down
The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below;
Following their footsteps through the neon-darkened corridors
Of silent desperation, never speakin' to a soul.
The poison air he's breathin' has the dirty smell of dying
'Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain.
But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes
Of the clickin' of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains.

";Oh!"; she said, ";Casey it's been so long since I've seen you!";
";Here"; she said, ";just a kiss to make a body smile!";
";See"; she said, ";I've put on new stockings just to please you!";
";Lord!"; she said, ";Casey can you only stay a while?";

Casey leaves the under-ground and stops inside the Golden Crown
For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bone.
Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
Who reach for any thing they can to keep from goin' home.
Standin' in the corner Casey drinks his pint of bitter
Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by
Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason
Is the beer that's in his belly, or the tear that's in his eye.

";Oh!"; she said, ";I suppose you seldom think about me,
";Now"; she said, ";now that you've a fam'ly of your own";;
";Still"; she said, ";it's so blessed good to feel your body!";
";Lord!"; she said"; ";Casey it's a shame to be alone!";

I come from just the other side of nowhere
To this big time lonesome town.
They got a lot of ice and snow here,
Half as cold as all the people I've found.
Every way I try to go here seems to bring me down.
I've seen about enough to know where I belong.
I've got a mind to see the headlights shining
On that old white line between my heart and home.
Sick of spendin' Sundays wishing they were Mondays

Sittin' in a park alone.
So give my best to anyone who's left who ever done me
Any lovin' way but wrong.
Tell 'em that the pride of just the other side o nowhere's
Goin' home.

Takin' nothin' back to show there
For these dues I've paid.
But the soul I almost sold here
And the body I've been givin' away.

Fadin' from the neon nighttime glow here,
Headin' for the light of day,
Just the other side of nowhere, goin' home.
I've got a mind to see the headlights shinin'
On that old white line between my heart and home.
Sick of spendin' Sundays wishin' they were Mondays,
Sittin' in a park alone.

So give my best to anyone who's left who ever done me
Any lovin' way but wrong.

Tell them that the pride of just the other side of nowhere's
Goin' Home.
Just the other side on nowhere, goin' home.

See the ruin on the hill
where the smoke is hanging still
Like an echo of an age long forgotten
There's a story of a home
crushed beneath those blackened stones
And the roof that fell
before the beams were rotten

Cecil Darby loved his wife
and he laboured all his life
To provide her with material possessions
And he built for her a home
of the finest wood and stone
And the building soon became his sole obsession

Oh, it took three-hundred days
for the timbers to be raised
And the silhouette was seen for miles around
And the gables reached as high
as the eagles in the sky
But it only took one night to bring it down
When Darby's castle tumbled to the ground

Though they shared a common bed
there was precious little said
In the moments that were set aside for sleepin'
For his busy dreams were filled
with the rooms he'd yet to build
And he never heard young Helen Darby weeping

Then one night he heard a sound
as he laid his pencil down
And he traced it to her door
and turned the handle
And the pale light of the moon
through the window of the room
Split the shadows
where two bodies lay entangled

Oh, it took three-hundred days
for the timbers to be raised
And the silhouette was seen for miles around
And the gables reached as high
as the eagles in the sky
But it only took one night to bring it down
When Darby's castle tumbled to the ground -

Don't look so sad, I know it's over
그토록 슬프게 바라보지 말아요,
난 그것이 끝난 걸 알지만
But life goes on
인생은 계속 흘러 가자나요.
And this old world just keeps on turning
그리고 이 오래된 세상은 계속 돌기만 하네요.

Let's just be glad, we had this time
To spend together
그저 기쁘게 삽시다.
우리에겐 함께보낼 이 시간이 있자나요.
There's no need to watch the bridges
That were burning.
다리들을 바라 볼 필요가 없어요.
그것들은 불타고 있어요.
Lay your head on my pillow
머리를 내 베게위로하고 누우세요
Hold your warm and tender body next to mine
당신의 따뜻하고 부드러운 몸을 붙잡아서 간직할께요.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
속삭이듯 들려오는 빗소리를 들어 보세요.
Beating soft against the window
부드럽게 창가를 두드리고 있네요.
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times.
그리고 믿음을 가지고 날 한번더 사랑해줘요..
좋은 날(시간,시절)을 위해서

I'll get along You'll find another
난 외로울 겁니다, 당신은 또 다른 것을 찾는다면.
And I'll be here if you should find
You ever need me.
그리고 당신이 내가 필요해서 나를 찾고자 한다면,
난 여기서 있을겁니다.
Don't say a word
About tomorrow or forever
내일 또는 영원히에 대해서 단어로 말하지 마세요.
There'll be time enough
For sadness when you leave.
당신이 떠날 때 슬플 수 있는 충분한 시간이 될겁니다.

Duvalier was a bitter man who cursed the morning sun
That brought a new betrayal every day.

He shunned the world of mortals and the sound of human tongues
And blessed the night that chased their sight away.
A disillusioned dreamer who would never love again
Who'd tried of it and found that it was rotten.
Prefering perfect strangers to the company of friends
Because strangers are so easily forgotten.

Chorus:
Oh, it's hard to keep believing when you know you've been decieved.
To face a lie and dare to try again, but there's nothing like a woman
With a spell of make believe to make a new believer of a man.





Duvalier took the fickle turns of fortune in his stride
Expecting next to nothing out of life.
Till fortune found a girl who fanned a flame he thought had died
Whose burning beauty cut him like a knife.
She touched him through the senses that his mind could not control.
Then smiling stepped aside and watched him fall.
Betrayed by his own body and the hunger in his soul
Duvalier was a dreamer after all.

Chorus
Oh, it's hard to keep believing when you know you've been decieved.
To face a lie and dare to try again, but there's nothing like a woman
With a spell of make believe to make a new believer of a man.

Well I woke up Sunday morning
with no way to hold my head, that didn't hurt
and the beer I had for breakfast
wasn't bad so I had one more for dessert
then I fumbled through my closet for my clothes
and found my cleanest dirty shirt
it's the one I'm wearin'
and I shaved my face and combed my hair
and stumbled down the stairs to meet the day
I'd smoked my brain the night before
with cigarettes and songs that I've been pickin'
but I lit my first and watched a small kid
cussin' at a can that he was kicking
then I crossed the empty street
and caught the Sunday smell of someone fryin' chicken
and it took me back to somethin'
that I'd lost somehow somewhere along the way
On the Sunday morning sidewalks
wishing Lord that I was stoned
'cause there is something in a Sunday
that makes a body feel alone
and there's nothin' short of dyin'
half as lonesome as the sound
on the sleepin' city side walks
Sunday mornin' comin' down
In the park I saw a daddy
with a laughing little girl who he was swingin'
and I stopped beside a Sunday school
and listened to the song that they were singin'
then I headed back for home and
somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin'
and it echoed thru the canyon like
the disappearing dreams of yesterday.
On the Sunday morning sidewalks
wishing Lord that I was stoned
'cause there is something in a Sunday
that makes a body feel alone
and there's nothin' short of dyin'
half as lonesome as the sound
on the sleepin' city side walks
Sunday mornin' comin' down.

I met her sadly in the slowly falling rain
Crying softly in her loneliness and pain
Knowing no one needin' someone bad as me
And she told me as I held her trembling hand
Walking slowly how she'd never known a man
Living lonely in her cottage by the sea.

When the morning came her tears had changed to laughter
And before the night her heart beat close to mine
And I thought as she lay sleeping bout the secrets she was keeping
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind.

In the morning as I wakened with the dawn
Without warning I could feel that she was gone
Leaving nothing but her silence next to me
And lonely footprints that I followed in the sand
Walking slowly for I knew where they would end
Disappearing in the silence of the sea.

And I sometimes hear the echoe of her laughter
As I search for what I know I'll never find
For the answer I was seeking was the secrets she's still keeping
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind.

Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind...

I heard the front door closing softly,
as I wakened from my sleep;
With the last touch of her kips, Lord,
like a whisper on my cheek;

And I cursed the sun for risin',
'cause the worst, Lord, was yet to come;
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
but, come sundown, she'll be gone.

See the lipstick on the pillow
that I placed beneath her head;
And the soft sheets still feel warm, Lord,
where she lay upon my bed;

And it hurts to know it's over,
for the hurt, Lord, has just begun.
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
but, come sundown, she'll be gone.

Busted flat in Baton Rouge,
headin' for the train,
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down,
just before it rained;

Took us all the way to New Orleans.
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna,
And was blowing sad while Bobby sang the blues.

She would meet me in the mornin' on my way down to the river,
Waiting patient by the China Berry tree;
With her feet already dusty from the pathway to the levee,
And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees.
I'd pay her no attention as she tagged along beside me,
Trying hard to copy everything I did;
But I couldn't keep from smiling when I'd hear somebody saying:
"Look a-yonder; there goes Jody and the kid."

After we grew older, we could still be seen together,
As we walked along the levee holding hands;
For as surely as the seasons, she was changin' to a woman,
And I'd lived enough to call myself a man.
And she often lay beside me, in the coolness of the evening,
'Til the morning sun was shining on my bed;
And at times, when she was sleeping,
I would smile when I'd remember,
How they used to call us "Jody and the kid."

Now, the world's a little older, and the years have changed the river,
'cause there's houses where they didn't used to be;
And on Sundays I go walking down the pathway to the levee,
With another little girl who follows me.
And it makes the old folks smile to see her tag along beside me,
Doing little things the way her Mamma did.
But it gets a little lonesome, when I hear somebody saying:
"Look yonder; there goes Jody and the kid."

Well I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head,
that didn't hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
So I had one more for dessert

Then I fumbled through
my closet for my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt
And I shaved my face and combed my hair
And stumbled down the
stairs to meet the day

I'd smoked my brain the night before
With cigarettes and the songs I'd been pickin'
But I lit my first and watched a small kid

Cussin’ at a can that he was kicking

And caught the Sunday smell

And it took me back to somethin'
That I'd lost somehow,

Sunday mornin' comin' down -

You ask me if I'm happy now

That's good as any joke I've heard

It seems that since I've seen you last

I done forgot the meaning of the words

If happiness is empty rooms

And drinkin' in the afternoon

Well I suppose I'm happy as a clam

But if it's got a thing to do

With smilin' of forgettin' you

Well I don't guess that I could say I am


Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone

Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew

When the water from the weeds has soaked the paper

He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through

And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants

Because he's never seen a single dream come true

That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling

From the bottle to the bottom stool by stool

Learnin' hard to live with losin' you


You wonder if I'm better off

With freedom now to do the things I choose

With all my times my own and

I got nothin' left but sleepin' time to lose

There's no one here to carry on

If I stay out the whole night long

or give a tankerous damn if I don't call

I'm livin' like I wanted to And doin' things I wanna do

And nothin' means a thing to me at all


Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone

Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew

When the water from the weeds soaked the paper

He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through

And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants

Because he's never seen a single dream come true

That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling

From the bottle to the bottom stool by stool

Learnin' hard to live with losin' you

We're just goin' through the motions
Of the parts we've learned to play
Never quite together like before
But somehow darlin' something good
Got lost along the way
And our song ain't nothing
Special anymore

Let's try it one more time
With feeling darlin', take it from the top
Let me feel those tears a fallin' babe
I don't want to miss a single drop
Darlin' make believe your makin'
Me believe each word you say
Try it once more with feeling
And we'll call it a day

Ah you're reachin' out to touch me
Darlin' just the way you used to do
An you're lookin' everywhere but
In my eyes
Well that's an oldy but it's a goody babe
But them words ain't ringin' true
And you don't seem very sure of your life

So try it one more time with feeling
Darlin' take it from the top
This one is the big one baby so give
It everything you got
Darlin' make believe your makin' me
Believe each word you say
Let's try it once more with feeling
And we'll call it a day

Don't look so sad, I know it's over
그토록 슬프게 바라보지 말아요,
난 그것이 끝난 걸 알지만
But life goes on
인생은 계속 흘러 가자나요.
And this old world just keeps on turning
그리고 이 오래된 세상은 계속 돌기만 하네요.

Let's just be glad, we had this time
To spend together
그저 기쁘게 삽시다.

That were burning.
다리들을 바라 볼 필요가 없어요.
그것들은 불타고 있어요.
Lay your head on my pillow
머리를 내 베게위로하고 누우세요
Hold your warm and tender body next to mine
당신의 따뜻하고 부드러운 몸을 붙잡아서 간직할께요.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
속삭이듯 들려오는 빗소리를 들어 보세요.
Beating soft against the window
부드럽게 창가를 두드리고 있네요.
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times.
그리고 믿음을 가지고 날 한번더 사랑해줘요..
좋은 날(시간,시절)을 위해서

I'll get along You'll find another
난 외로울 겁니다, 당신은 또 다른 것을 찾는다면.
And I'll be here if you should find
You ever need me.
그리고 당신이 내가 필요해서 나를 찾고자 한다면,
난 여기서 있을겁니다.
Don't say a word
About tomorrow or forever
내일 또는 영원히에 대해서 단어로 말하지 마세요.
There'll be time enough
For sadness when you leave.
당신이 떠날 때 슬플 수 있는 충분한 시간이 될겁니다.

He's a giver, he'll give her
The kind of attention that she's never known
He's a helper, he'll help her
To open the doors that she can't on her own
He's a lover, he'll love her
In ways that she never has been loved before
And he's a getter, he'll get her
By gettin her into the world she's been hungerin' for

'cause he's a taker, he'll take her
To places and make her fly higher than she's ever dared to
He'll take his time before takin' advantage
Takin' her easy and slow
And after he's taken the body and soul
That she gives him, he'll take her for granted
Then he'll take off and leave her
Takin' all of her pride as he goes

Yes, he's a taker, he'll take her ...

He's a charmer, and he'll charm her


With money and manners that I never learned
He's a leader, and he'll lead her
Across pretty bridges he's planning to burn
He's a talker, he'll talk her
Right off of her feet, but he won't talk for long
Cause he's a doer, and he'll do her
The way that I never
And damned if he won't do her wrong
'cause he's a taker, he'll take her
To places and make her fly higher than she's ever dared to
He'll take his time before takin' advantage
Takin' her easy and slow
And after he's taken the body and soul
That she gives him, he'll take her for granted
Then he'll take off and leave her
Takin' all of her pride as he goes

Yes, he's a taker, he'll take her ...

Take the ribbon from my hair
머리의 리본을 떼어보세요
Shake it loose let it fall
머리를 풀어 살며시 늘어뜨려요
Layin' soft up on my skin
벽에 비친 그림자처럼
Like the shadows on the wall
내곁에 살며시 누워 보세요

Come and lay down by my side
이리 와서 내 옆에 누워요
Till the early morning light
아침 햇살이 비칠 때까지
All I'm takin' is your time
당신의 시간을 내게 주세요
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 샐 수 있도록 도와주세요

I don't care who's right or wrong
누가 옳은지 그른지 개의치 않아요
And i won't try to understand
이해하려고 노력하지도 않아요
Let the devil take tomorrow
내일은 신경쓰지 말아요
Lord tonight I need a friend
오늘 밤 난 친구가 필요해요

Yesterday is dead and gone
어제는 사라져 버렸고
And tomorrow's out of sight
내일 일은 알지 못해요
And it's sad to be alone
홀로있는 건 서글프니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

I don't want to be alone
홀로있고 싶지 않으니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

I heard the front door closing softly,
as I wakened from my sleep;
With the last touch of her kips, Lord,
like a whisper on my cheek;

And I cursed the sun for risin',
'cause the worst, Lord, was yet to come;
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
but, come sundown, she'll be gone.

See the lipstick on the pillow
that I placed beneath her head;
And the soft sheets still feel warm, Lord,
where she lay upon my bed;

And it hurts to know it's over,
for the hurt, Lord, has just begun.
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
but, come sundown, she'll be gone.

I've seen the morning burning golden on the mountains in the skies

Aching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she flies

Turning on the world the way she smiles upon my soul as i lay diing

Healing with the colors of the sunshine and the shadow of her eyes

Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin

Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that i've been

Teaching me that yesterday was something that i never thought of trying

Talking about tomorrow and the money love and time we'd have to spend

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Coming close together with a feeling that i've never know before,in my time

She ain't afraid to be a woman or afraid to be a friend

I don't know the answer to the easy way she opens every door in my mind

Dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna end

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Who's right or wrong
We've been injuring each other
For much too long
And it's too late to try to save
What might have been
It's over
Nobody wins
Make believin in forever
Is just a lie
And it seems a little sadder
Each time we try
'Cause it's a shame to make
The same mistakes again
And again
It's over.
Nobody wins
We've gone too far too long
Too far apart
The lovin' was easy
It's the livin' that's hard
And there's no need to stay and see
The way it ends
It's over.
Nobody wins

Maybe she was smilin' in the mirror
Maybe I was too, 'cause I was stoned
Singin' every sad song on the juke-box one more time
Honey, they were hittin' close to home
And I said - Maybe this'll make you think I'm crazy
Honey, don't feel lonesome if you do
But if you wanna make a young man happy one more time
I'd sure like to spend the night with you
And she said - Stranger
Shut out the light and lead me
Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too
And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me
Stranger, could I believe in you
Maybe you got all you got together
Maybe you keep rollin' like a stone
Maybe some old lonesome song'll take you by surprise
And leave you just a little more alone
Singing - Stranger
Shut out the light and lead me
Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too
And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me
Stranger, could I believe in you
Keep Singing - Stranger
Shut out the light and lead me
Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too
And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me
Stranger, could I believe in you

Why me Lord, what have I ever done
To deserve even one Of the pleasures I've known
주여.. 제가 아는 행복한것들중에서
어느 하나라도 즐길만한 어떤 일을
제가 한 적이 있는지요..

Tell me Lord,
말해주세요.주여..
what did I ever do That was worth loving you
내가 당신을 사랑할 가치가 있는
어떤 일을 한 적이 있는지
Or the kindness you've shown
혹은 내게 보여준 친절에 보답을 했는지

Lord help me Jesus,
도와주세요 주여
I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am
모든걸 낭비했어요.
내가 내 자신을 잘 알고 있으니 나를 도와주세요.

Now that I know that I've need you so Help me Jesus,
이제 당신이 간절히 필요한걸 알고 있으니
도와주세요.주여..
my soul's in your hand
내 영혼은 당신 손에 달려있답니다

Try me Lord, if you think there's a way
I can try to repay All I've taken from you
당신으로부터 받아온 모든 것들을
제가 갚을 수 있는 방법이 있다고
주님께서 생각하신다면 절 시험하세요.

Maybe Lord, I can show someone else
What I've been through myself On my way back to you
아마도 내가 다른 사람에게 내가 걸어왔던 길을 끝내고
당신에게 가고 있단걸 보여줄 수 있을것 같습니다

Lord help me Jesus,
도와주세요 주여
I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am
모든걸 낭비했어요.
내가 내 자신을 잘 알고 있으니 나를 도와주세요.
Now that I know that I've need you so Help me Jesus,
이제 당신이 간절히 필요한걸 알고 있으니
도와주세요.주여..
my soul's in your hand
내 영혼은 당신 손에 달려있답니다

I've seen the morning burning golden on the mountains in the skies

Healing with the colors of the sunshine and the shadow of her eyes

Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin

Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that i've been

Teaching me that yesterday was something that i never thought of trying

Talking about tomorrow and the money love and time we'd have to spend

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Coming close together with a feeling that i've never know before,in my time

She ain't afraid to be a woman or afraid to be a friend

I don't know the answer to the easy way she opens every door in my mind

Dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna end

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Busted flat in Baton Rouge,
headin' for the train,
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down,
just before it rained;

Took us all the way to New Orleans.
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna,
And was blowing sad while Bobby sang the blues.
With them windshield wipers slappin' time,
And Bobby clappin' hands,
We finally sang up every song that driver knew.

Freedom's just another word for
nothing' left to lose:
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free.
Feeling good was easy, Lord,
when Bobby sang the blues.

Feeling good was good enough for me;
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

From the coal mines of
Kentucky to the California sun,
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul.
Standin' right beside me, Lord,
through everything I've done,
Every night she kept me from the cold.

Then somewhere near Salinas,
Lord, I let her slip away,
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find.
And I'd trade all my tomorrows
for a single yesterday,
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine.

Freedom's just another word for
nothing' left to lose:
Nothin' left is all she left for me.
Feeling good was easy, Lord,
when Bobby sang the blues.
Buddy, that was good enough for me;
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

La da da la la na na na
La da da na na.
La la la da, Me and Bobby McGee.
La la la la la da da da
La la la da da.
La la la da, Me and Bobby McGee.

La la la la la na na na
La la la da da.
La da da da, Me and Bobby McGee.
La la la la la da da da-

See him wasted on the sidewalk in his jacket and his jeans,
Wearin' yesterday's misfortunes like a smile--
Once he had a future full of money, love, and dreams,
Which he spent like they was goin' outta style--
And he keeps right on a'changin' for the better or the worse,
Searchin' for a shrine he's never found--
Never knowin' if believin' is a blessin' or a curse,
Or if the goin' up was worth the comin' down--

He's a poet, he's a picker--
He's a prophet, he's a pusher--
He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.

He has tasted good and evil in your bedrooms and your bars,
And he's traded in tomorrow for today--
Runnin' from his devils, lord, and reachin' for the stars,
And losin' all he's loved along the way--
But if this world keeps right on turnin' for the better or the worse,
And all he ever gets is older and around--
>from the rockin' of the cradle to the rollin' of the hearse,
The goin' up was worth the comin' down--

He's a poet, he's a picker--
He's a prophet, he's a pusher--
He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.
There's a lotta wrong directions on that lonely way back home.

Don't look so sad, I know it's over
그토록 슬프게 바라보지 말아요,
난 그것이 끝난 걸 알지만
But life goes on
인생은 계속 흘러 가자나요.
And this old world just keeps on turning
그리고 이 오래된 세상은 계속 돌기만 하네요.

Let's just be glad, we had this time
To spend together
그저 기쁘게 삽시다.
우리에겐 함께보낼 이 시간이 있자나요.
There's no need to watch the bridges
That were burning.
다리들을 바라 볼 필요가 없어요.
그것들은 불타고 있어요.
Lay your head on my pillow
머리를 내 베게위로하고 누우세요
Hold your warm and tender body next to mine
당신의 따뜻하고 부드러운 몸을 붙잡아서 간직할께요.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
속삭이듯 들려오는 빗소리를 들어 보세요.
Beating soft against the window
부드럽게 창가를 두드리고 있네요.

Take the ribbon from my hair
머리의 리본을 떼어보세요
Shake it loose let it fall
머리를 풀어 살며시 늘어뜨려요
Layin' soft up on my skin
벽에 비친 그림자처럼
Like the shadows on the wall
내곁에 살며시 누워 보세요

Come and lay down by my side
이리 와서 내 옆에 누워요
Till the early morning light
아침 햇살이 비칠 때까지
All I'm takin' is your time
당신의 시간을 내게 주세요
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 샐 수 있도록 도와주세요

I don't care who's right or wrong
누가 옳은지 그른지 개의치 않아요
And i won't try to understand
이해하려고 노력하지도 않아요
Let the devil take tomorrow
내일은 신경쓰지 말아요
Lord tonight I need a friend
오늘 밤 난 친구가 필요해요

Yesterday is dead and gone
어제는 사라져 버렸고
And tomorrow's out of sight
내일 일은 알지 못해요
And it's sad to be alone
홀로있는 건 서글프니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

I don't want to be alone
홀로있고 싶지 않으니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

Well I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head,
that didn't hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
So I had one more for dessert

Then I fumbled through
my closet for my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt
And I shaved my face and combed my hair
And stumbled down the
stairs to meet the day

I'd smoked my brain the night before
With cigarettes and the songs I'd been pickin'
But I lit my first and watched a small kid

Cussin’ at a can that he was kicking
Then I crossed the empty street
And caught the Sunday smell
of someone's fryin' chicken

And it took me back to somethin'
That I'd lost somehow,
somewhere along the way

On the Sunday morning sidewalks
Wishing Lord that I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone

And there's nothin' short of dyin'
Half as lonesome as the sound
On the sleepin' city sidewalks
Sunday mornin' comin' down

In the park I saw a daddy
With a laughin' little girl who he was swingin'
And I stopped beside a Sunday school
And listened to the songs they were singin'
Then I headed back for home

And somewhere far away
a lonely bell was ringin'
And it echoed thru the canyon
Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday

On the Sunday morning sidewalks
Wishing Lord that I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone

And there's nothin' short of dyin'
Half as lonesome as the sound
On the sleepin' city sidewalks
Sunday mornin' comin' down -

I come from just the other side of nowhere
To this big time lonesome town.
They got a lot of ice and snow here,
Half as cold as all the people I've found.
Every way I try to go here seems to bring me down.
I've seen about enough to know where I belong.
I've got a mind to see the headlights shining
On that old white line between my heart and home.
Sick of spendin' Sundays wishing they were Mondays

Sittin' in a park alone.
So give my best to anyone who's left who ever done me
Any lovin' way but wrong.
Tell 'em that the pride of just the other side o nowhere's
Goin' home.

Takin' nothin' back to show there
For these dues I've paid.
But the soul I almost sold here
And the body I've been givin' away.

Fadin' from the neon nighttime glow here,
Headin' for the light of day,
Just the other side of nowhere, goin' home.
I've got a mind to see the headlights shinin'
On that old white line between my heart and home.
Sick of spendin' Sundays wishin' they were Mondays,
Sittin' in a park alone.

So give my best to anyone who's left who ever done me
Any lovin' way but wrong.

Tell them that the pride of just the other side of nowhere's
Goin' Home.
Just the other side on nowhere, goin' home.

A couple of years back I come across
a great and wasted friend of mine in
the hallway of a recording studio.

And while he was reciting some poetry to me
that he had written, I saw that he was
about a step away from dying,
and I couldn't help but wonder why.

And the lines of this song occurred to me.
I'm happy to say he's no longer wasted,
and he's got him a good woman.
And I'd like to dedicate this to John and June,
who helped showed me how to beat the devil.

It was wintertime in Nashville
Down on Music City Row
And I was looking for a place
And to get myself out of the cold
To warm the frozen feeling
that was eating at my soul
Keep the chilly wind off my guitar

My thirsty wanted whiskey
But my hunger needed beans
But it had been a month of paydays
Since I'd heard that eagle scream

So with a stomach full of empty
And a pocket full of dreams
I left my pride and stepped inside a bar

Actually I'd guess you'd call it a tavern
Cigarette smoke to the ceiling
And sawdust on the floor
Friendly shadows

I saw that there was
just one old man sitting at the bar
And in the mirror I could see him
checking me and my guitar
And he turned and said,

Come up here, boy,
and show us what you are
I said I'm dry, and he bought me a beer

He nodded at my guitar and said,
It's a tough life, ain't it?
I just looked at him
He said, you ain't making
any money, are you?

I said, you been reading my mail
He just smiled and said,
let me see that guitar
I got something you ought to hear
And then he laid it on me

If you waste your time talking
To the people who don't listen
To the things that you are saying
Who do you thinks gonna hear?

And if you should die explaining how
The things that they complain about
Are things they could be changing
Who do you thinks gonna care?

There were other lonely singers
In a world turned deaf and blind
Who were crucified for
what they tried to show

And their voice have been
scattered by the swirling winds of time.
'Cos the truth remains
that no one wants to know.

Well, the old man was a stranger,
but I'd heard his song before,
Back when failure had me locked
out on the wrong side of the door.

When no one stood behind me
but my shadow on the floor,
And lonesome was more
than a state of mind.

You see, the devil haunts a hungry man,
If you don't wanna join him,
you got to beat him.
I ain't sayin' I beat the devil,
but I drank his beer for nothing.
Then I stole his song.

And you still can hear me singin'
to the people who don't listen,
To the things that I am sayin',
prayin' someone's gonna hear.

And I guess I'll die explaining how
the things that they complain about,
Are things they could be changin',
hopin' someone's gonna care.

I was born a lonely singer,
and I'm bound to die the same,
But I've got to feed the
hunger in my soul.

And if I never have a nickle,
I won't ever die ashamed.
'Cos I don't believe that
no one wants to know -

Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down
The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below;
Following their footsteps through the neon-darkened corridors
Of silent desperation, never speakin' to a soul.
The poison air he's breathin' has the dirty smell of dying
'Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain.
But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes
Of the clickin' of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains.

";Oh!"; she said, ";Casey it's been so long since I've seen you!";
";Here"; she said, ";just a kiss to make a body smile!";
";See"; she said, ";I've put on new stockings just to please you!";
";Lord!"; she said, ";Casey can you only stay a while?";

Casey leaves the under-ground and stops inside the Golden Crown
For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bone.
Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
Who reach for any thing they can to keep from goin' home.
Standin' in the corner Casey drinks his pint of bitter
Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by
Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason
Is the beer that's in his belly, or the tear that's in his eye.

";Oh!"; she said, ";I suppose you seldom think about me,
";Now"; she said, ";now that you've a fam'ly of your own";;
";Still"; she said, ";it's so blessed good to feel your body!";
";Lord!"; she said"; ";Casey it's a shame to be alone!";

Why me Lord, what have I ever done
To deserve even one Of the pleasures I've known
주여.. 제가 아는 행복한것들중에서
어느 하나라도 즐길만한 어떤 일을
제가 한 적이 있는지요..

Maybe Lord, I can show someone else
What I've been through myself On my way back to you
아마도 내가 다른 사람에게 내가 걸어왔던 길을 끝내고
당신에게 가고 있단걸 보여줄 수 있을것 같습니다

Lord help me Jesus,
도와주세요 주여
I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am

I've seen the morning burning golden on the mountains in the skies

Aching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she flies

Turning on the world the way she smiles upon my soul as i lay diing

Healing with the colors of the sunshine and the shadow of her eyes

Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin

Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that i've been

Teaching me that yesterday was something that i never thought of trying

Talking about tomorrow and the money love and time we'd have to spend

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Coming close together with a feeling that i've never know before,in my time

She ain't afraid to be a woman or afraid to be a friend

I don't know the answer to the easy way she opens every door in my mind

Dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna end

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Standin' right beside me, Lord,
through everything I've done,
Every night she kept me from the cold.

Then somewhere near Salinas,
Lord, I let her slip away,
Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find.
And I'd trade all my tomorrows
for a single yesterday,
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine.

Freedom's just another word for
nothing' left to lose:
Nothin' left is all she left for me.
Feeling good was easy, Lord,
when Bobby sang the blues.
Buddy, that was good enough for me;
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

La da da la la na na na
La da da na na.
La la la da, Me and Bobby McGee.
La la la la la da da da
La la la da da.
La la la da, Me and Bobby McGee.

La la la la la na na na
La la la da da.
La da da da, Me and Bobby McGee.
La la la la la da da da-

See him wasted on the sidewalk in his jacket and his jeans,
Wearin' yesterday's misfortunes like a smile--
Once he had a future full of money, love, and dreams,
Which he spent like they was goin' outta style--
And he keeps right on a'changin' for the better or the worse,
Searchin' for a shrine he's never found--
Never knowin' if believin' is a blessin' or a curse,
Or if the goin' up was worth the comin' down--

He's a poet, he's a picker--
He's a prophet, he's a pusher--
He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.

He has tasted good and evil in your bedrooms and your bars,
And he's traded in tomorrow for today--
Runnin' from his devils, lord, and reachin' for the stars,
And losin' all he's loved along the way--
But if this world keeps right on turnin' for the better or the worse,
And all he ever gets is older and around--
>from the rockin' of the cradle to the rollin' of the hearse,
The goin' up was worth the comin' down--

He's a poet, he's a picker--
He's a prophet, he's a pusher--
He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.
There's a lotta wrong directions on that lonely way back home.

Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing

Don't look so sad, I know it's over
그토록 슬프게 바라보지 말아요,
난 그것이 끝난 걸 알지만
But life goes on
인생은 계속 흘러 가자나요.
And this old world just keeps on turning
그리고 이 오래된 세상은 계속 돌기만 하네요.

Let's just be glad, we had this time
To spend together
그저 기쁘게 삽시다.
우리에겐 함께보낼 이 시간이 있자나요.
There's no need to watch the bridges
That were burning.
다리들을 바라 볼 필요가 없어요.
그것들은 불타고 있어요.
Lay your head on my pillow
머리를 내 베게위로하고 누우세요
Hold your warm and tender body next to mine
당신의 따뜻하고 부드러운 몸을 붙잡아서 간직할께요.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
속삭이듯 들려오는 빗소리를 들어 보세요.
Beating soft against the window
부드럽게 창가를 두드리고 있네요.
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times.
그리고 믿음을 가지고 날 한번더 사랑해줘요..
좋은 날(시간,시절)을 위해서

I'll get along You'll find another
난 외로울 겁니다, 당신은 또 다른 것을 찾는다면.
And I'll be here if you should find
You ever need me.
그리고 당신이 내가 필요해서 나를 찾고자 한다면,
난 여기서 있을겁니다.
Don't say a word
About tomorrow or forever
내일 또는 영원히에 대해서 단어로 말하지 마세요.
There'll be time enough
For sadness when you leave.
당신이 떠날 때 슬플 수 있는 충분한 시간이 될겁니다.

Take the ribbon from my hair
머리의 리본을 떼어보세요
Shake it loose let it fall
머리를 풀어 살며시 늘어뜨려요
Layin' soft up on my skin
벽에 비친 그림자처럼
Like the shadows on the wall
내곁에 살며시 누워 보세요

Come and lay down by my side
이리 와서 내 옆에 누워요
Till the early morning light
아침 햇살이 비칠 때까지
All I'm takin' is your time
당신의 시간을 내게 주세요
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 샐 수 있도록 도와주세요

I don't care who's right or wrong
누가 옳은지 그른지 개의치 않아요
And i won't try to understand
이해하려고 노력하지도 않아요
Let the devil take tomorrow
내일은 신경쓰지 말아요
Lord tonight I need a friend
오늘 밤 난 친구가 필요해요

Yesterday is dead and gone
어제는 사라져 버렸고
And tomorrow's out of sight
내일 일은 알지 못해요
And it's sad to be alone
홀로있는 건 서글프니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

I don't want to be alone
홀로있고 싶지 않으니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

Well I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head,
that didn't hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
So I had one more for dessert

Then I fumbled through
my closet for my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt
And I shaved my face and combed my hair
And stumbled down the
stairs to meet the day

I'd smoked my brain the night before
With cigarettes and the songs I'd been pickin'
But I lit my first and watched a small kid

Cussin’ at a can that he was kicking
Then I crossed the empty street
And caught the Sunday smell
of someone's fryin' chicken

And it took me back to somethin'
That I'd lost somehow,
somewhere along the way

On the Sunday morning sidewalks
Wishing Lord that I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone

And there's nothin' short of dyin'
Half as lonesome as the sound
On the sleepin' city sidewalks
Sunday mornin' comin' down

In the park I saw a daddy
With a laughin' little girl who he was swingin'
And I stopped beside a Sunday school
And listened to the songs they were singin'
Then I headed back for home

And somewhere far away
a lonely bell was ringin'
And it echoed thru the canyon
Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday

On the Sunday morning sidewalks
Wishing Lord that I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone

And there's nothin' short of dyin'
Half as lonesome as the sound
On the sleepin' city sidewalks
Sunday mornin' comin' down -

I come from just the other side of nowhere
To this big time lonesome town.
They got a lot of ice and snow here,
Half as cold as all the people I've found.
Every way I try to go here seems to bring me down.
I've seen about enough to know where I belong.
I've got a mind to see the headlights shining
On that old white line between my heart and home.
Sick of spendin' Sundays wishing they were Mondays

Sittin' in a park alone.
So give my best to anyone who's left who ever done me
Any lovin' way but wrong.
Tell 'em that the pride of just the other side o nowhere's
Goin' home.

Takin' nothin' back to show there
For these dues I've paid.
But the soul I almost sold here
And the body I've been givin' away.

Fadin' from the neon nighttime glow here,
Headin' for the light of day,
Just the other side of nowhere, goin' home.
I've got a mind to see the headlights shinin'
On that old white line between my heart and home.
Sick of spendin' Sundays wishin' they were Mondays,
Sittin' in a park alone.

So give my best to anyone who's left who ever done me
Any lovin' way but wrong.

Tell them that the pride of just the other side of nowhere's
Goin' Home.
Just the other side on nowhere, goin' home.

A couple of years back I come across
a great and wasted friend of mine in
the hallway of a recording studio.

And while he was reciting some poetry to me
that he had written, I saw that he was
about a step away from dying,
and I couldn't help but wonder why.

And the lines of this song occurred to me.
I'm happy to say he's no longer wasted,
and he's got him a good woman.
And I'd like to dedicate this to John and June,
who helped showed me how to beat the devil.

It was wintertime in Nashville
Down on Music City Row
And I was looking for a place
And to get myself out of the cold
To warm the frozen feeling
that was eating at my soul
Keep the chilly wind off my guitar

My thirsty wanted whiskey
But my hunger needed beans
But it had been a month of paydays
Since I'd heard that eagle scream

So with a stomach full of empty
And a pocket full of dreams
I left my pride and stepped inside a bar

Actually I'd guess you'd call it a tavern
Cigarette smoke to the ceiling
And sawdust on the floor
Friendly shadows

I saw that there was
just one old man sitting at the bar
And in the mirror I could see him
checking me and my guitar
And he turned and said,

Come up here, boy,
and show us what you are
I said I'm dry, and he bought me a beer

He nodded at my guitar and said,
It's a tough life, ain't it?
I just looked at him
He said, you ain't making
any money, are you?

I said, you been reading my mail
He just smiled and said,
let me see that guitar
I got something you ought to hear
And then he laid it on me

If you waste your time talking
To the people who don't listen
To the things that you are saying
Who do you thinks gonna hear?

And if you should die explaining how
The things that they complain about
Are things they could be changing
Who do you thinks gonna care?

There were other lonely singers
In a world turned deaf and blind
Who were crucified for
what they tried to show

And their voice have been
scattered by the swirling winds of time.
'Cos the truth remains
that no one wants to know.

Well, the old man was a stranger,
but I'd heard his song before,
Back when failure had me locked
out on the wrong side of the door.

When no one stood behind me
but my shadow on the floor,
And lonesome was more
than a state of mind.

You see, the devil haunts a hungry man,
If you don't wanna join him,
you got to beat him.
I ain't sayin' I beat the devil,
but I drank his beer for nothing.
Then I stole his song.

And you still can hear me singin'
to the people who don't listen,
To the things that I am sayin',
prayin' someone's gonna hear.

And I guess I'll die explaining how
the things that they complain about,
Are things they could be changin',
hopin' someone's gonna care.

I was born a lonely singer,
and I'm bound to die the same,
But I've got to feed the
hunger in my soul.

And if I never have a nickle,
I won't ever die ashamed.
'Cos I don't believe that
no one wants to know -

Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down
The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below;
Following their footsteps through the neon-darkened corridors
Of silent desperation, never speakin' to a soul.
The poison air he's breathin' has the dirty smell of dying
'Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain.
But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes
Of the clickin' of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains.

";Oh!"; she said, ";Casey it's been so long since I've seen you!";
";Here"; she said, ";just a kiss to make a body smile!";
";See"; she said, ";I've put on new stockings just to please you!";
";Lord!"; she said, ";Casey can you only stay a while?";

Casey leaves the under-ground and stops inside the Golden Crown
For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bone.
Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
Who reach for any thing they can to keep from goin' home.
Standin' in the corner Casey drinks his pint of bitter
Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by
Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason
Is the beer that's in his belly, or the tear that's in his eye.

";Oh!"; she said, ";I suppose you seldom think about me,
";Now"; she said, ";now that you've a fam'ly of your own";;
";Still"; she said, ";it's so blessed good to feel your body!";
";Lord!"; she said"; ";Casey it's a shame to be alone!";

Why me Lord, what have I ever done
To deserve even one Of the pleasures I've known
주여.. 제가 아는 행복한것들중에서
어느 하나라도 즐길만한 어떤 일을
제가 한 적이 있는지요..

Tell me Lord,
말해주세요.주여..
what did I ever do That was worth loving you
내가 당신을 사랑할 가치가 있는
어떤 일을 한 적이 있는지
Or the kindness you've shown
혹은 내게 보여준 친절에 보답을 했는지

Lord help me Jesus,
도와주세요 주여
I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am
모든걸 낭비했어요.
내가 내 자신을 잘 알고 있으니 나를 도와주세요.

Now that I know that I've need you so Help me Jesus,
이제 당신이 간절히 필요한걸 알고 있으니
도와주세요.주여..
my soul's in your hand
내 영혼은 당신 손에 달려있답니다

Try me Lord, if you think there's a way
I can try to repay All I've taken from you
당신으로부터 받아온 모든 것들을
제가 갚을 수 있는 방법이 있다고
주님께서 생각하신다면 절 시험하세요.

Maybe Lord, I can show someone else
What I've been through myself On my way back to you
아마도 내가 다른 사람에게 내가 걸어왔던 길을 끝내고
당신에게 가고 있단걸 보여줄 수 있을것 같습니다

Lord help me Jesus,
도와주세요 주여
I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am
모든걸 낭비했어요.
내가 내 자신을 잘 알고 있으니 나를 도와주세요.
Now that I know that I've need you so Help me Jesus,
이제 당신이 간절히 필요한걸 알고 있으니
도와주세요.주여..
my soul's in your hand
내 영혼은 당신 손에 달려있답니다

I've seen the morning burning golden on the mountains in the skies

Aching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she flies

Turning on the world the way she smiles upon my soul as i lay diing

Healing with the colors of the sunshine and the shadow of her eyes

Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin

Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that i've been

Teaching me that yesterday was something that i never thought of trying

Talking about tomorrow and the money love and time we'd have to spend

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Coming close together with a feeling that i've never know before,in my time

She ain't afraid to be a woman or afraid to be a friend

I don't know the answer to the easy way she opens every door in my mind

Dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna end

Loving her was easier than anything i'll ever do again

Why me Lord, what have I ever done
To deserve even one Of the pleasures I've known
주여.. 제가 아는 행복한것들중에서
어느 하나라도 즐길만한 어떤 일을
제가 한 적이 있는지요..

Busted flat in Baton Rouge,
headin' for the train,
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down,
just before it rained;

Took us all the way to New Orleans.
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna,
And was blowing sad while Bobby sang the blues.
With them windshield wipers slappin' time,
And Bobby clappin' hands,
We finally sang up every song that driver knew.

Freedom's just another word for
nothing' left to lose:
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free.
Feeling good was easy, Lord,
when Bobby sang the blues.

Feeling good was good enough for me;
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

From the coal mines of
Kentucky to the California sun,
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul.
Standin' right beside me, Lord,
through everything I've done,
Every night she kept me from the cold.

Then somewhere near Salinas,
Lord, I let her slip away,

Well I woke up Sunday morning
with no way to hold my head, that didn't hurt
and the beer I had for breakfast

then I fumbled through my closet for my clothes
and found my cleanest dirty shirt

'cause there is something in a Sunday

and there's nothin' short of dyin'
half as lonesome as the sound
on the sleepin' city side walks
Sunday mornin' comin' down.

She would meet me in the mornin' on my way down to the river,
Waiting patient by the China Berry tree;
With her feet already dusty from the pathway to the levee,
And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees.
I'd pay her no attention as she tagged along beside me,
Trying hard to copy everything I did;
But I couldn't keep from smiling when I'd hear somebody saying:
"Look a-yonder; there goes Jody and the kid."

After we grew older, we could still be seen together,
As we walked along the levee holding hands;
For as surely as the seasons, she was changin' to a woman,
And I'd lived enough to call myself a man.
And she often lay beside me, in the coolness of the evening,
'Til the morning sun was shining on my bed;
And at times, when she was sleeping,
I would smile when I'd remember,
How they used to call us "Jody and the kid."

Now, the world's a little older, and the years have changed the river,
'cause there's houses where they didn't used to be;
And on Sundays I go walking down the pathway to the levee,
With another little girl who follows me.
And it makes the old folks smile to see her tag along beside me,
Doing little things the way her Mamma did.
But it gets a little lonesome, when I hear somebody saying:
"Look yonder; there goes Jody and the kid."

You ask me if I'm happy now

That's good as any joke I've heard

It seems that since I've seen you last

I done forgot the meaning of the words

If happiness is empty rooms

And drinkin' in the afternoon

Well I suppose I'm happy as a clam

But if it's got a thing to do

With smilin' of forgettin' you

Well I don't guess that I could say I am


Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone

Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew

When the water from the weeds has soaked the paper

He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through

And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants

Because he's never seen a single dream come true

That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling

From the bottle to the bottom stool by stool

Learnin' hard to live with losin' you


You wonder if I'm better off

With freedom now to do the things I choose

With all my times my own and

I got nothin' left but sleepin' time to lose

There's no one here to carry on

If I stay out the whole night long

or give a tankerous damn if I don't call

I'm livin' like I wanted to And doin' things I wanna do

And nothin' means a thing to me at all


Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone

Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew

When the water from the weeds soaked the paper

He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through

And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants

Because he's never seen a single dream come true

That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling

From the bottle to the bottom stool by stool

Learnin' hard to live with losin' you

Busted flat in Baton Rouge,

He's a giver, he'll give her
The kind of attention that she's never known
He's a helper, he'll help her
To open the doors that she can't on her own
He's a lover, he'll love her
In ways that she never has been loved before
And he's a getter, he'll get her
By gettin her into the world she's been hungerin' for

'cause he's a taker, he'll take her
To places and make her fly higher than she's ever dared to
He'll take his time before takin' advantage
Takin' her easy and slow
And after he's taken the body and soul
That she gives him, he'll take her for granted
Then he'll take off and leave her
Takin' all of her pride as he goes

Yes, he's a taker, he'll take her ...

He's a charmer, and he'll charm her


With money and manners that I never learned
He's a leader, and he'll lead her
Across pretty bridges he's planning to burn
He's a talker, he'll talk her
Right off of her feet, but he won't talk for long
Cause he's a doer, and he'll do her
The way that I never
And damned if he won't do her wrong
'cause he's a taker, he'll take her
To places and make her fly higher than she's ever dared to
He'll take his time before takin' advantage
Takin' her easy and slow
And after he's taken the body and soul
That she gives him, he'll take her for granted
Then he'll take off and leave her
Takin' all of her pride as he goes

Yes, he's a taker, he'll take her ...

Don't look so sad, I know it's over
그토록 슬프게 바라보지 말아요,
난 그것이 끝난 걸 알지만
But life goes on
인생은 계속 흘러 가자나요.
And this old world just keeps on turning
그리고 이 오래된 세상은 계속 돌기만 하네요.

Let's just be glad, we had this time
To spend together
그저 기쁘게 삽시다.
우리에겐 함께보낼 이 시간이 있자나요.
There's no need to watch the bridges
That were burning.
다리들을 바라 볼 필요가 없어요.
그것들은 불타고 있어요.
Lay your head on my pillow
머리를 내 베게위로하고 누우세요
Hold your warm and tender body next to mine
당신의 따뜻하고 부드러운 몸을 붙잡아서 간직할께요.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
속삭이듯 들려오는 빗소리를 들어 보세요.
Beating soft against the window
부드럽게 창가를 두드리고 있네요.
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times.
그리고 믿음을 가지고 날 한번더 사랑해줘요..
좋은 날(시간,시절)을 위해서

I'll get along You'll find another
난 외로울 겁니다, 당신은 또 다른 것을 찾는다면.
And I'll be here if you should find
You ever need me.
그리고 당신이 내가 필요해서 나를 찾고자 한다면,
난 여기서 있을겁니다.
Don't say a word
About tomorrow or forever
내일 또는 영원히에 대해서 단어로 말하지 마세요.
There'll be time enough
For sadness when you leave.
당신이 떠날 때 슬플 수 있는 충분한 시간이 될겁니다.

Take the ribbon from my hair
머리의 리본을 떼어보세요
Shake it loose let it fall
머리를 풀어 살며시 늘어뜨려요
Layin' soft up on my skin
벽에 비친 그림자처럼
Like the shadows on the wall
내곁에 살며시 누워 보세요

Come and lay down by my side
이리 와서 내 옆에 누워요
Till the early morning light
아침 햇살이 비칠 때까지
All I'm takin' is your time
당신의 시간을 내게 주세요
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 샐 수 있도록 도와주세요

I don't care who's right or wrong
누가 옳은지 그른지 개의치 않아요
And i won't try to understand
이해하려고 노력하지도 않아요
Let the devil take tomorrow
내일은 신경쓰지 말아요
Lord tonight I need a friend
오늘 밤 난 친구가 필요해요

Yesterday is dead and gone
어제는 사라져 버렸고
And tomorrow's out of sight
내일 일은 알지 못해요
And it's sad to be alone
홀로있는 건 서글프니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

I don't want to be alone
홀로있고 싶지 않으니
Help me make it through the night
이 밤을 지샐 수 있도록 도와 주세요

We're just goin' through the motions
Of the parts we've learned to play
Never quite together like before
But somehow darlin' something good
Got lost along the way
And our song ain't nothing
Special anymore

Let's try it one more time
With feeling darlin', take it from the top
Let me feel those tears a fallin' babe
I don't want to miss a single drop
Darlin' make believe your makin'
Me believe each word you say
Try it once more with feeling
And we'll call it a day

Ah you're reachin' out to touch me
Darlin' just the way you used to do
An you're lookin' everywhere but
In my eyes
Well that's an oldy but it's a goody babe
But them words ain't ringin' true
And you don't seem very sure of your life

So try it one more time with feeling
Darlin' take it from the top
This one is the big one baby so give
It everything you got
Darlin' make believe your makin' me
Believe each word you say
Let's try it once more with feeling
And we'll call it a day

I heard the front door closing softly,
as I wakened from my sleep;
With the last touch of her kips, Lord,
like a whisper on my cheek;

And I cursed the sun for risin',
'cause the worst, Lord, was yet to come;
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
but, come sundown, she'll be gone.

See the lipstick on the pillow
that I placed beneath her head;
And the soft sheets still feel warm, Lord,
where she lay upon my bed;

And it hurts to know it's over,
for the hurt, Lord, has just begun.
'Cause this morning, she's just leavin',
but, come sundown, she'll be gone.

Well I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head,
that didn't hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
So I had one more for dessert

Then I fumbled through
my closet for my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt
And I shaved my face and combed my hair
And stumbled down the
stairs to meet the day

I'd smoked my brain the night before
With cigarettes and the songs I'd been pickin'
But I lit my first and watched a small kid

Cussin’ at a can that he was kicking
Then I crossed the empty street
And caught the Sunday smell
of someone's fryin' chicken

And it took me back to somethin'
That I'd lost somehow,
somewhere along the way

On the Sunday morning sidewalks
Wishing Lord that I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone

And there's nothin' short of dyin'
Half as lonesome as the sound
On the sleepin' city sidewalks
Sunday mornin' comin' down

In the park I saw a daddy
With a laughin' little girl who he was swingin'
And I stopped beside a Sunday school
And listened to the songs they were singin'
Then I headed back for home

And somewhere far away
a lonely bell was ringin'
And it echoed thru the canyon
Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday

On the Sunday morning sidewalks
Wishing Lord that I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone

And there's nothin' short of dyin'
Half as lonesome as the sound
On the sleepin' city sidewalks
Sunday mornin' comin' down -

Who's right or wrong
We've been injuring each other
For much too long
And it's too late to try to save
What might have been
It's over
Nobody wins
Make believin in forever
Is just a lie
And it seems a little sadder
Each time we try
'Cause it's a shame to make
The same mistakes again
And again
It's over.
Nobody wins
We've gone too far too long
Too far apart
The lovin' was easy
It's the livin' that's hard
And there's no need to stay and see
The way it ends
It's over.
Nobody wins

Maybe she was smilin' in the mirror
Maybe I was too, 'cause I was stoned
Singin' every sad song on the juke-box one more time
Honey, they were hittin' close to home
And I said - Maybe this'll make you think I'm crazy
Honey, don't feel lonesome if you do
But if you wanna make a young man happy one more time
I'd sure like to spend the night with you
And she said - Stranger
Shut out the light and lead me
Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too
And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me
Stranger, could I believe in you
Maybe you got all you got together
Maybe you keep rollin' like a stone
Maybe some old lonesome song'll take you by surprise
And leave you just a little more alone
Singing - Stranger
Shut out the light and lead me
Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too
And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me
Stranger, could I believe in you
Keep Singing - Stranger
Shut out the light and lead me
Somewhere - shut out the shadows, too
And while we lay there, makin' believe you love me
Stranger, could I believe in you
