Sinnerman
Oh Sinnerman, where you gonna run to?
Sinnerman, where you gonna run to?
Where you gonna run to?
All along dem day
Well I run to the rock, "please hide me"
I run to the rock,"please hide me"
I run to the rock, "please hide me, Lord"
All along dem day
But the rock cried out, "I can't hide you"
The rock cried out, "I can't hide you"
The rock cried out, "I ain't gonna hide you guy"
All along dem day
I said, "Rock, what's a matter with you rock?"
"Don't you see I need you, rock?"

All along dem day
So I run to the river, it was bleedin'
I run to the sea, it was bleedin'
I run to the sea, it was bleedin'
All along dem day
So I run to the river, it was boilin'
I run to the sea, it was boilin'
I run to the sea, it was boilin'
Along dem day
So I run to the Lord, "please hide me Lord"
"Don't you see me prayin'?"
"Don't you see me down here prayin'?"
But the Lord said, "go to the devil"
The Lord said, "go to the devil"
He said, "go to the devil"
All along dem day
So I ran to the devil, he was waitin'
I ran to the devil, he was waitin'
Ran to the devil, he was waitin'
All on that day
I cried -

這首真棒!可是也很詭異,一點都不爵士嘛,有夠前衛的,非常像迷幻搖滾,The Doors 那種調調,叫她跟 Jim Morrison 合唱看看好了,一定很讚!
想當初就為了這首歌因當時還不知道這個赫赫有名的
Nina Simone差點去買了天羅地網﹝The Thomas Crown Affair﹞的電影原聲帶,第二次聽是看這部電影,第一次是因為它曾是NOKIA的廣告曲。
呵,好久沒有把The Doors的唱片拿出來聽聽,嗯,的確有點像那種----瞌藥起乩,越來越high的感覺
^^
說到The Doors讓我想到一件小憾事。我很迷蕭邦,所以去巴黎時特地到蕭邦下葬的墓園憑弔一番,但卻沒注意到Jim Morrison也是葬在那個墓園。我沒有迷The Doors啦,但要是事先知道的話,去拜他一下也不錯,給他打打氣。
嗯,那個墓園相當有名,不知道那個雕像還在嗎?
呵,他的歌迷就像許多別的歌手的歌迷一樣不相信他死了
