[00:00.00]Millworker - James Taylor (詹姆斯·泰勒)
[00:15.03]Now my grandfather was a sailor
[00:17.71]
[00:18.72]He blew in off the water
[00:21.27]
[00:22.14]My father was a farmer and I
[00:26.14]His only daughter
[00:27.89]
[00:28.89]Took up with a no good millworking man
[00:32.94]From Massachusetts
[00:34.67]
[00:35.59]Who dies from too much whiskey
[00:38.53]And leaves me these three faces to feed
[00:42.69]
[00:49.25]Millwork ain't easy millwork ain't hard
[00:55.07]
[00:56.20]Millwork it ain't nothing
[00:58.88]But an awful boring job
[01:01.88]
[01:02.75]I'm waiting for a daydream
[01:05.69]
[01:06.43]To take me through the morning
[01:09.05]
[01:09.92]And put me in my coffee break
[01:12.80]Where I can have a sandwich and remember
[01:17.67]
[01:19.47]Then it's me and my machine
[01:22.97]For the rest of the morning
[01:26.22]
[01:26.97]For the rest of the afternoon
[01:31.27]
[01:32.27]And the rest of my life
[01:34.58]
[01:49.91]Now my mind begins to wander
[01:52.41]
[01:53.22]To the days back on the farm
[01:55.78]
[01:56.59]I can see my father smiling at me
[02:00.65]Swinging on his arm
[02:02.71]
[02:03.71]I can hear my granddad's stories
[02:06.45]
[02:07.07]Of the storms out on Lake Erie
[02:09.87]
[02:10.74]Where vessels and cargoes and fortunes
[02:15.17]
[02:15.74]And sailors' lives were lost
[02:18.80]
[02:24.35]Yes but it's my life has been wasted
[02:27.10]
[02:28.59]And I have been the fool
[02:31.34]
[02:32.09]To let this manufacturer
[02:34.96]Use my body for a tool
[02:37.89]
[02:38.83]I can ride home in the evening
[02:41.44]
[02:42.45]Staring at my hands
[02:45.38]
[02:46.00]Swearing by my sorrow
[02:48.94]That a young girl ought
[02:50.74]To stand a better chance
[02:53.55]
[02:56.67]So may I work the mills just
[02:59.29]As long as I am able
[03:02.47]
[03:03.66]And never meet the man
[03:05.89]
[03:06.65]Whose name is on the label
[03:09.33]
[03:10.02]It be me and my machine
[03:13.57]For the rest of the morning
[03:16.88]
[03:17.63]And the rest of the afternoon
[03:21.18]Gone for the rest of my life
