Maria
Came from the hills of Livardia Ice capped peaks and eagle's spire Olive groves and a bowl of stew You dance all night with a kin you never knew
Australia seemed like a land of dreams Frigidaires and two TV's Process work won't pay the bills Kids need shoes, takes six weeks of saving
And the debt collector haunts your sleep Like a shadow at your heels We can offer tea and sympathy But can't know how it feels
Take your blues to the bottle every Friday night And drink them all away Take world in your hands when the weekend comes Tomorrow's another day
Oh Maria, sweet Maria The blinds are torn and the door's ajar A sneaking draught, it chills your bones Maria, you're so far from home
The foreman leers as he walks by Ugly dial and furtive eyes 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 You refuse, again today And what will come, there's no way of saying
They rob you blind they suck you dry You sell your life, they sell you lies Wogs and Sprogs you hear them say And when you meet them face-to-face They turn away
And the chrome glints hard in the used car yards And the semis whine at night Chequered dreams of sanctuary To the flicker of a neon light
Husband's face is pocked and lined Pride is shattered and his rage is blind Out of work, short of hope You try to talk but he just won't understand
Maria, sweet Maria The blinds are torn and the door's ajar A sneaking draught, it chills your bones Maria, you're so far from home
And you sing your song alone.
