Ordinary Joe歌词

[00:15.032] For my openin' line
[00:17.938] I might try to indicate my state of mind
[00:22.535] Or turn you on
[00:25.940] And tell you that I'm laughin'
[00:28.347] Just to keep from cryin'
[00:30.954] Pretty music, when you hear it
[00:34.607] Keep on tryin' to get near it
[00:38.684] A little rhythm for your spirit
[00:42.509] But that's what it's for
[00:44.638] C'mon in here's the door
[00:46.916] I've seen a sparrow get high
[00:50.957] And waste his time in the sky
[00:54.554] He thinks it's easy to fly
[00:58.102] He's just little bit freer than I
[01:01.175] Now here's a mystery
[01:04.519] Maybe you can help to make it clear to me
[01:08.914] When you're fast asleep
[01:12.018] Then what is it that's lightin' up the dreams you see
[01:16.743] All your tears can't conceal it
[01:20.561] All your prayers may not reveal it
[01:24.752] You got soul so you can feel it
[01:28.813] And when you make the scene
[01:30.759] Then you'll know what I mean
[01:32.719] Now I've seen a sparrow get high
[01:36.892] And waste his time in the sky
[01:40.692] He thinks it's easy to fly
[01:44.104] He's just little bit freer than I
[02:10.009] Down here on the ground
[02:13.039] When you fine folks are givin' you the run-arround
[02:17.856] Keep your game up tight
[02:21.010] And if you must just take your secrets underground
[02:25.855] Politicians are trying to speech you
[02:29.428] Mad color watchers will try to teach you
[02:33.615] Very few will really try to reach you
[02:37.370] You get lost in the flack
[02:39.466] But that's ok come on back
[02:41.735] Now I'd be the last to deny
[02:45.434] That I'm just an average guy
[02:48.501] And each little bird in the sky
[02:52.625] Is just a little bit freer than I
[02:55.782] So Ordinary Joe, although they say you're just a lazy so and so
[03:03.468] What they think is real
[03:06.463] Ain't nothing but an animated puppet show
[03:11.149] So don't let time and space confuse you
[03:15.158] And don't let name and form abuse you
[03:19.024] Let Big Joe Williams blues you
[03:22.892] In the light of the sun you can see how they run
[03:26.910] I've seen a sparrow get high
[03:31.096] And waste his time in the sky
[03:34.149] Now don't you know he thinks it's easy to fly
[03:38.139] He's just little bit freer than I
