Bartender's Blues

George Jones & Trisha Yearwood

しがないバーテンダーの悲哀を歌ったジェイムス・テイラー中期の佳作。 hiraさんの極上の演奏でその世界に入りきって歌いました。 このあと、コラボ用も投稿するのでたくさんのホンキートンク・エンジェルお待ちしてます✨ Now, I'm just a bartender, and I don't like my work, But I don't mind the money at all. I see lots of sad faces and lots of bad cases Of folks with their backs to the wall. But I need four walls around me to hold my life, To keep me from going astray, And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight To keep me from slipping away. I can light up your smokes, I can laugh at your jokes, I can watch you fall down on your knees. I can close down this bar, I can gas up my car, I can pack up and mail in my key. But I need four walls around me to hold my life, To keep me from going astray, And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight To keep me from slipping away. Now, the smoke fills the air in this honky-tonk bar And I'm thinking 'bout where I'd rather be. But I burned all my bridges, I sank all my ships And I'm stranded at the edge of the sea. But I need four walls around me to hold my life, To keep me from going astray, And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight To keep me from slipping away, yeah. 90年代カントリーの旗手、ヴィンス・ギルのライブ。 素晴らしい歌と演奏にただただ身を任せていたい。 こんな風に歌えたら… https://youtu.be/e7nEkz61n2Y ボニー姐さん貫禄の名唱。 https://youtu.be/f-YTObK89z8 知らない人だけど喉が違う。 https://youtu.be/1ao8gOqOqvM
