Luyện nghe bài hát The Mercy Beat

There's a high wind blowin' and the stars are shining
Oh, a night, this is gonna be
I think I'll let the world sleep me
I got one eye open, one eye
And my thin body's trembling the bed clothes
My hearts against the roof of my mouth
It's almost time to get out of this

I got one on the radio, one hand on the wheel
I got my foot on the floorboard, I'm preparing to kill or be killed

There's a high blowin' and the stars are shinin' bright
And the rain the tarmac
Helps me through the traffic lights
I'm down to the dock of the bay
To feel the power of the
I'm gonna move up to that wind
with the thoughts solitude always brings

You see I'm between hell and the deep blue sea
And I that water's sucked under better man than me
I was just western guy
With that couldn't be satisfied
One day, I asked the for inspiration
The devil bought me a
been buying them ever since

He's had the liquor on my tongue, like the sea upon the sand
He's had me signing confessions from shakin' hand
He's had me to hang onto hope
Like a drunken sailor in a
a bottle of vodka in my overcoat
My dog heared lost overboard

You see he tricked me temptation
So I've him into this confrontation
I said I was the man I appeared to be
Not the flesh wrapped around the bones of
Or the soul on fire scribbling for posterity

I'm gonna have little runnin' off to purgatory
With his between his legs
I'm gonna teach him a he ain't ever gonna forget
All the vultures and crows are fixin' up tombstones
They won't be the meat off my bones

There's a high wind blowin' and the are shining bright
Me and him are gonna have a knife fight
In the of the big city skyline
Oh, this feelin' inside runs and deep
my hearts not thumping, a mercy beat

Yeah, I was just western guy
desires that couldn't be satisfied
Oh, what a this is gonna be
The will sleep without me
What a this is gonna be
The world will sleep me
a night, this is gonna be
The world will without me, yeah
