Mary and Omie
作詞:Nanci Griffith
My daddy was a longshoreman in New Orleans And my mama kept score just watchin' the Mardi Gras Oh me, I sat on the front porch watchin' the rails roll out I was waitin' for my Omie to take me outta this south It was me and my sisters like to wore that front porch out
And there can't be more to this livin' than lovin' my Omie And we're both sittin' back here watchin' our children grow If there's a better ace in the deck Well baby, come on and show me If you ain't got a hand then get on your wheel and roll 'Cuz there could never be a better hand than these hearts I hold
Me and my Omie we settled down here in Houston Oh, and one by one, we moved my sisters west We bought a house in the suburbs and we've got four fine children We are black middle class because Omie wouldn't settle for less We are black middle class because Omie wouldn't settle for less
And there can't be more to this livin' than lovin' my Omie And we're both sittin' back here watchin' our children grow If there's a better ace in the deck 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 Well baby, come on and show me If you ain't got a hand then get on your wheel and roll 'Cuz there could never be a better hand than these hearts I hold
My children are the first thing in my mornin' My Omie is the last thing in my night Oh, in between I dream about that porch back home And I bless my daddy for the love within that house And I thank my Omie for takin' me outta the south
And there can't be more to this livin' than lovin' my Omie And we're both sittin' back here watchin' our children grow If there's a better ace in the deck Well baby, come on and show me If you ain't got a hand then get on your wheel and roll 'Cuz there could never be a better hand than these hearts I hold
Look at these hearts I hold oh, look at these hearts I hold Look at these hearts I hold there ain't no place like home Look at these hearts we hold, look at those hearts you hold Hey, my Omie's got a heart of gold, look at these hearts we hold Look at those hearts you hold
