[00:00.000] 作词 : Joni Mitchell
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Charles Mingus
[00:42.92] When Charlie speaks of Lester
[00:46.02]
[00:47.53] You know someone great has gone
[00:50.59]
[00:51.78] The sweetest swinging music man
[00:55.12]
[00:56.61] Had a Porkie Pig hat on
[00:59.00]
[01:00.46] A bright star
[01:02.03]
[01:03.12] In a dark age
[01:04.05]
[01:04.77] When the bandstands had a thousand ways
[01:09.19] Of refusing a black man admission
[01:15.10]
[01:18.05] Black musician
[01:19.76]
[01:21.86] In those days they put him in an
[01:25.65] Underdog position
[01:27.37]
[01:33.32] Cellars and chittlins'
[01:34.37]
[01:36.39] When Lester took him a wife
[01:39.31]
[01:42.18] Arm and arm went black and white
[01:44.56]
[01:45.89] And some saw red
[01:47.33]
[01:49.08] And drove them from their hotel bed
[01:52.43]
[01:55.88] Love is never easy
[01:58.68]
[02:00.32] It's short of the hope we have for happiness
[02:04.47]
[02:07.52] Bright and sweet
[02:08.28]
[02:09.37] Love is never easy street
[02:11.69]
[02:13.93] Now we are black and white
[02:16.61] Embracing out in the lunatic New York night
[02:19.96]
[02:20.59] It's very unlikely we'll be driven out of town
[02:23.10]
[02:25.03] Or be hung in a tree
[02:28.36]
[02:29.65] That's unlikely
[02:30.24]
[02:32.60] Tonight these crowds
[02:36.73]
[02:39.73] Are happy and loud
[02:45.77]
[02:48.21] Children are up dancing in the streets
[02:49.97]
[02:52.91] In the sticky middle of the night
[02:54.91] Summer serenade
[02:56.53] Of taxi horns and fun arcades
[02:58.69]
[03:00.22] Where right or wrong
[03:01.36]
[03:02.56] Under neon
[03:03.08]
[03:04.17] Every feeling goes on
[03:06.60]
[03:07.35] For you and me
[03:09.58]
[03:10.12] The sidewalk is a history book
[03:12.08]
[03:13.52] And a circus
[03:14.27]
[03:14.95] Dangerous clowns
[03:16.26]
[03:17.47] Balancing dreadful and wonderful perceptions
[03:21.33] They have been handed
[03:22.81] Day by day
[03:23.52]
[03:24.15] Generations on down
[03:26.71]
[04:22.55] We came up from the subway
[04:25.34]
[04:26.50] On the music midnight makes
[04:30.15]
[04:31.59] To Charlie's bass and Lester's saxophone
[04:35.35]
[04:36.26] In taxi horns and brakes
[04:39.67]
[04:40.73] Now Charlie's down in Mexico
[04:43.82]
[04:45.37] With the healers
[04:46.51]
[04:47.60] So the sidewalk leads us with music
[04:50.43]
[04:51.59] To two little dancers
[04:54.50]
[04:57.92] Dancing outside a black bar
[05:00.14]
[05:03.25] There's a sign up on the awning
[05:06.07]
[05:07.43] It says Pork pie hat bar
[05:10.48]
[05:14.36] And there's black babies dancing
[05:16.76]
[05:19.01] Tonight
