आज से मैं एक बार फिर अपनी सबसे प्रिय गायिका ट्रेसी चैपमैन के गीतों की श्रृंखला शुरू कर रहा हूँ. मेरी कोशिश रहेगी कि ट्रेसी का सर्वश्रेष्ठ यहाँ पर दर्ज कर सकूं. आज देखिये 11 मार्च 1991 को अमेरिका के गोल्डन गेट पार्क में हुई कंसर्ट से उनका एक गीत -
Oh
my mama told me
'Cause
she say she learned the hard way
Say
she wanna spare the children
She
say don't give or sell your soul away
'Cause
all that you have is your soul
Don't
be tempted by the shiny apple
Don't
you eat of a bitter fruit
Hunger
only for a taste of justice
Hunger
only for a world of truth
'Cause
all that you have is your soul
I
was a pretty young girl once
I
had dreams I had high hopes
I
married a man he stole my heart away
He
gave his love but what a high price I paid
And
all that you have is your soul
Why
was I such a young fool
Thought
I'd make history
Making
babies was the best I could do
Thought
I'd made something that could be mine forever
Found
out the hard way one can't possess another
And
all that you have is your soul
I
thought thought that I could find a way
To
beat the system
To
make a deal and have no debts to pay
I'd
take it all take it all I'd run away
Me
for myself first class and first rate
But
all that you have is your soul
Here
I am waiting for a better day
A
second chance
A
little luck to come my way
A
hope to dream a hope that I can sleep again
And
wake in the world with a clear conscience and clean hands
'Cause
all that you have is your soul
All
that you have
All
that you have
All
that you have Is your soul
