Welcome To Acousticville

Janis Ian
앨범 : HUNGER


IT WAS A LONG, LONG ROAD

IT WAS A BIG DEEP HOLE

AND THEN THE AXLE BROKE

I BARELY HAD TIME TO WORK UP A SWEAT

WHEN MY POOR CORVETTE

WENT UP IN SMOKE

I WAS GLUED TO THE SEAT

I WAS DYING OF THE HEAT

THEN THE WATER JUG SPILLED

RIGHT ONTO THE DESERT SAND

I GOT DOWN ON MY HANDS AND KNEES

AND SAID "DO WHAT YOU WILL"

THERE WAS A VOICE FROM THE DUNES

IN THE NOONDAY SUN

WELL SHE HANDED ME A PAMPHLET

SHE SAID "MAKE SURE YOU READ IT"

AND SHE STARTED BACK THE WAY SHE HAD COME

IT SAID - WELCOME TO ACOUSTICVILLE

WELCOME TO THE PLACE WHERE TIME STANDS STILL

YOU CAN DRINK YOUR BLUES NEAT OR ON ICE

YOU CAN PAY YOUR DUES ANY WAY YOU LIKE

WELCOME TO ACOUSTICVILLE

IT WAS A BIG MIRAGE

OR MAYBE HER GARAGE

JUST LOOKED LIKEA MOTEL SIX

SHE CHECKED ME IN OVER THERE

WEARING NOTHING BUT HER HAIR

AND A COUPLE OF CANDLESTICKS

SHE HAD LONG, LONG TEETH

IT WAS A HUGE RELIEF

THAT MY DOOR HAD A CHAIN

IT WAS AN ORDINARY BED

IT HAD A SIGN THAT SAID

"YOU CAN STEAL THIS STAIN"

NOT AN OUTLET IN SIGHT

NOT A LAMP, NOT A LIGHT

AND IT WAS COMING ON NIGHT

I WAS SLEEPING ON THE FLOOR

WHEN SHE SLITHERED THROUGH THE DOOR

AND WHISPERED "BABY DID YOU LOSE YOUR APPETITE"

SHE SAID - WELCOME TO ACOUSTICVILLE

WELCOME TO THE PLACE WHERE TIME STANDS STILL

AIN'T NO BASS, AIN'T NO DRUMS

AIN'T NO WASTE, JUST TWO OPPOSABLE THUMBS

WELCOME TO ACOUSTICVILLE

GARY DAVIS, SIPPIE WALLACE, FURRY LEWIS

MUDDY WATERS THEY WERE LAYING BY THE POOL

ROBERT JOHNSON, LIBBA COTTON, WILLIE DIXON

CHARLIE CHRISTIAN AND HIS CHILDREN, TOO

INBETWEEN THE LOTION AND CHLORINE

JIMI HENDRIX PLAYED A BIG OLD D-18

AND WE ALL JOINED IN AS HE BEGAN TO SCREAM

"WELCOME TO ACOUSTICVILLE"

(EXTENDED GUITAR SOLO)

I HAD A REAL GOOD TIME

GOOD FOOD, GOOD WINE

I GOT MY APPETITE BACK

BUT WHENEVER I TOLD HER I WANTED TO LEAVE

SHE'D GET SO MEAN

SHE'D PEEL THE PAINT OFF A CADILLAC

"WAIT A MINUTE!" I SAID

"I DON'T RECALL BEING DEAD

"THOUGH I AM WHITE AS A GHOST"

SHE LOOKED ME RIGHT IN THE EYE

SAID "YOU THINK YOU'RE ALIVE

"BUT BABY, GOD ONLY KNOWS"

AND THAT'S THE THING I LOVE ABOUT THE BLUES

YOU CAN'T PREDICT WHO IT IS GONNA CHOOSE

BUT IT'S AN HONOR THAT YOU REALLY CAN'T REFUSE

WELCOME TO ACOUSTICVILLE

WELCOME TO ACOUSTICVILLE

WELCOME TO ACOUSTICVILLE?
