I got a feelin' called the blu-ues, oh, Lawd
Since my baby said goodbye
And I don't know what I'll do-oo-oo
All I do is sit and sigh-igh, oh, Lawd
That last long day she said goodbye
Well Lawd I thought I would cry
She'll do me, she'll do you, she's got that kind of lovin'
Lawd, I love to hear her when she calls me
Sweet dad-ad-ad-dy, such a beautiful dream
I hate to think it all o-o-ver
I've lost my heart it seems
I've grown so used to you some how
Well, I'm nobody's sugar daddy now
And I'm lo-on-lonesome
I got the Lovesick Blu-ues.
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love, with a beautiful gal
That's what's the matter with me
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love, with a beautiful gal
But she don't care about me
Lawd, I tried and I tried, to keep her satisfied
But she just wouldn't stay
So now that she is lea-eav-in'
This is all I can say.
I got a feelin' called the blu-ues, oh, Lawd
Since my baby said goodbye
And I don't know what I'll do-oo-oo
All I do is sit and sigh-igh, oh, Lawd
That last long day she said goodbye
Well Lawd I thought I would cry
She'll do me, she'll do you, she's got that kind of lovin'
Lawd, I love to hear her when she calls me
Sweet dad-ad-ad-dy, such a beautiful dream
I hate to think it all o-o-ver
I've lost my heart it seems
I've grown so used to you some how
Well, I'm nobody's sugar daddy now
And I'm lo-on-lonesome
I got the Lovesick Blu-ues.



《Lovesick Blues》出自美国乡村音乐巨星Hank Williams(汉克·威廉姆斯)1965年的专辑《Father & Son》。Hank Williams创造了一种抑郁的但却坚定的唱法,与他同时代的乡村歌手们几乎都受到了他的影响,他乡村歌集中的作品也许比任何人都要多。这首《Lovesick Blues》(相思布鲁斯)就是当年他冲击乐坛的经典曲目之一,他别具一格的唱法带着乡野的自在以及在不经意间捕获人心的力量,就像他当年说过的那样:“当你要象乡下人那样唱歌之前该先去闻一闻驴粪。”这首歌还是1994年热门电影《肖申克的救赎》的插曲。电影中有这样一句话:“Remember, Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things and no good thing ever dies!”(记住,希望是美好的,也许是人间至善,而美好的事物永不消逝)。 我想这句话也同样适用于音乐。
