Bon Jovi - Dry County英文歌詞
Across the border they turn water into wineSome say it's the devil's bloodThey're squeezing from the vineSome say it's a saviourIn these hard and desperate timesYou see it helps me to forgetThat we're just born to die
I came here like so many didTo find the better lifeTo find my piece of easy streetTo finally be aliveAnd I knew nothing good comes easyAll good things take some timeI made my bed I'll lie in itTo die in it's the crime
You can't help but prosperWhere the streets are paved with goldThey say the oil wells ran deeper hereThan anybody's knownNow I packed up on my wife and kidAnd left them both back at homeSee there's nothing in this paydirtThe ghosts are all I knowNow the oil's goneAnd the money's goneAll the jobs are goneStill we're hangin' on down in
Dry countyThey're swimming in the sandPraying for some holy waterTo wash these sins from off our handsIn dry countyThe promise has run dryWhere nobody criesAnd no one's getting out of here aliveNot this time
In the blessed name of JesusI heard a preacher sayThat we are all God's childrenAnd He'd be back, back somedayI hoped that he knew something asHe drank that cup of wineI didn't have too good of a feelingAs I head out to the night
I cursed the sky to openI begged the clouds for rainI prayed all night for waterFor this burning in my veinsIt was like my soul's on fireAnd I had to watch the flamesAll my dreams went up in ashesAnd my future blew awayNow the oil's goneAnd the money's goneAll the jobs are goneStill we're hangin' on down in
Dry countyThey're swimming in the sandPraying for some holy waterTo wash these sins from off our handsIn dry countyThe promise has run dryWhere nobody criesAnd no one's getting out of here alive
Man spends his whole life waiting praying for some big rewardBut it seems sometimes the payoff leaves you feeling likeA dirty whoreIf I could choose the way I'll die make it by the gun or knifeCause the other way there's too much painNight after night after night after night
Down in dry countyThey're swimming in the sandPraying for some holy waterTo wash these sins from off our handsIn dry countyThe promise has run dryWhere nobody criesAnd no one's getting out of hereDry county
No one's getting out of hereDry countyNo
