Country Mile(Live) - Rory Gallagher

作词：Rory Gallagher

作曲：Rory Gallagher

Well I was born on the side of the road

A gap in the hedge

Did you hear what I said

Born in a house with no slates

But I wouldn't switch

I didn't have a stitch

Always been out on a limb

I've been hard to mend

Like a kick in the shin

You'll only see me smile

When I eat up a country mile

Born on the green light

A mission to move

Something to prove

An itch in my shoes

I heard then wail of a train

From a burnin' stack

And I jumped on the back

Well the engineer threw the switch

And it got to my brain

I've never been the same

You'll only see me smile

When I eat up a country mile

Gotta make tracks

Gotta raise the dust

Grease my heels

Out race the bus

Don't blink your eyes

You won't see me again

Born a spoke of the wheel

Not a part of the set

And I'm running yet

I ran before I could walk

The price of the fare

Was hardly ever there

I saw an eight wheeler move

And I couldn't choose

I just had to cruise

You'll only see me smile

When I eat up a country mile

Well I was born on the side of the road

A gap in the hedge

Did you hear what I said

Born in a house with no slates

But I wouldn't switch

I didn't have a stitch

I've always been out on a limb

I've been hard to mend

Like a kick in the shin

You'll only see me smile

When I eat up a country mile

Gotta make tracks

Gotta raise the dust

Grease my heels

Out race the bus

Don't blink your eyes

Or you won't see me again

Yea
