raincat的甜不辣

鄉愁~~~~
有時很難用語言釐清 悄悄浮上心頭
這種懷念的滋味....

飄散的行道樹香氣
夜市中的臭豆腐味
媽媽滷控肉的醬香

好像不久前的總總事物
卻已過匆匆數十年

秋天的靜夜
我和鄉愁偶遇

一起聽湯姆等待(Tom Waits)的酒歌
然後 互道晚安

I wish I was in New Orleans


Well I wish I was in New Orleans
I can see it in my dreams
Arm in arm down Burgundy
A bottle and my friends and me
Hoist up a few tall cool ones
Play some pool and listen to that
Tenor saxaphone calling me home
And I can hear the band begin
When The Saints Go Marching In
By the whiskers on my chin
New Orleans I'll be there

I'll drink you under the table
Be red nose go for walks
The old haunts what I wants
Is red beans and rice
And wear the dress I like so well
Meet me at the old saloon
Make sure there's a Dixie moon
New Orleans I'll be there

And deal the cards roll the dice
If it ain't that ole Chuck E. Weiss
And Clayborn Avenue me and you
Sam Jones and all
And I wish I was in New Orleans
I can see it in my dreams
Arm in arm down Burgundy
A bottle and my friends and me
New Orleans I'll be there
