guy & joe – gentle man كلمات اغاني
[verse 1]
been travelin’ most all the night
this storm had slowed me down
there wasn’t a car in sight
and my truck the only sound
then between the drivin’ flakes
a man stared through the cold
his arms outstretched in ragged cloth
his toy face was old
[verse 2]
he said as he climbed in the car
“walked four miles before you stopped”
“i don’t mind the cold,” he said
“but that wind’ll make you drop.”
“i had bean soup and jack in framingham
so i’m plenty warm inside”
then his gravel throated winesoaked voice
traded stories for the ride
[chorus]
seen every port they’ll let you in
all fifty states and back again
i never been a place you see
someone ain’t been good to me
[verse 3]
“thirty years” i think he said
“the time i spent at sea
ash-r- i’d grab a bottle
and a woman on each knee
i got my third mate’s ticket
but i lost it that same day
cause i found a babe and then jumped ship
and let her sail away”
[verse 4]
“lost my wife about ten years back
she got tired of life alone
our boy had gone his way
and well out sea i wasn’t home
my boy he understand my ways
he don’t try to tie me down
and a travelin’ man ain’t no grandpa
so i quiet hangin’ round.”
[chorus]
seen every port they’ll let you in
all fifty states and back again
i never been a place you see
someone ain’t been good to me
[verse 5]
told him “n-body takes this road
at night this time of year”
i remember it quite clear
“son most folks merely spend their lives
goin’ safely fast and slow
but i’ll ease along, someone will stop
it’s something i just know.”
[chorus]
seen every port they’ll let you in
all fifty states and back again
i never been a place you see
someone ain’t been good to me
