堕落天使----关于性工作者的一些歌曲

老北

性工作者，一向被认为是社会的最底层，因其“堕落”而被主流社会所鄙弃。

但她们“堕落”的背后，或多或少的总隐藏着一些悲惨的故事或不愿再被提及的经历。一些具备社会良心的文艺工作者，会时常把创作的目光投向她们，通过对其生活某一方面进行挖掘，以揭露社会所存在的某些缺陷和问题，从而进一步引起人们对社会正义和公平的关注。

音乐工作者也不例外。我整理“新西兰百大金曲”尚未过半时，已经发现两首歌曲是描述这个群体的。以前听过的老歌，也有不少此类题材。

现将我知道的此类歌曲汇总成一篇小文，抛砖引玉，请熟悉此类题材歌曲的坛友们补充。

Randy Travis----"ThreeWooden Crosses"  

Randy Travis于2002年发表的这首乡村歌曲描写了一个去度假的农场主、一个寻找更高教育机会的老师，以及都在寻找“失去的灵魂”的牧师和妓女，坐上前往墨西哥的午夜班车，却不行遭遇了车祸，农场主、教师、牧师都失去了什么，牧师临死前将沾有血迹的圣经递到了妓女的手里……多年后，妓女的儿子也成了牧师，他手持这本沾有血迹的圣经，向受众们讲了那个悲剧的午夜后，他的母亲如何改变人生，并找寻到了失去的灵魂（有了信仰）的故事。

"Can'tyou see the Promised Land?

在这个越来越失去信仰的时代，多听听这首关于真诚与信念的哀伤的歌曲吧

Lyrics

A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher
Ridin' on a midnight bus bound for Mexico
One's headed for vacation, one for higher education
And two of them were searchin' for lost souls
That driver never ever saw the stop sign
And eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It's what you leave behind you when you go
That farmer left a harvest, a home and eighty acres
The faith and love for growin' things in his young son's heart
And that teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children
Did her best to give 'em all a better start
And that preacher whispered, "Can't you see the Promised Land?"
As he laid his blood-stained bible in that hooker's hand
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It's what you leave behind you when you go
That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday
As he held that blood-stained bible up
For all of us to see
He said "Bless the farmer, and the teacher, and the preacher
Who gave this Bible to my mama
Who read it to me"
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there's not four of them, now I guess we know
It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It's what you leave behind you when you go
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway

Ed Sheeran---- "The A Team"

2011年，Ed Sheeran根据此前到无家可归者收留所做义工，遇到的一位名叫Angel的姑娘的经历，写下了这首歌。歌曲描写了一个出卖肉体以求生存的姑娘， 虽然也曾满怀希望改变人生，但最终被贫困和绝望击垮，沉溺于Class A drugs毒品（海洛因等）而终结一生的故事。

Lyrics

White lips, pale face
Breathing in the snowflakes
Burnt lungs, sour taste
Light's gone, days end
Struggling to pay rent
Long nights, strange men

And they say
She's in the Class A Team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately, her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us

'Cause we're justunder the upper hand
And go mad for a couple grams
And she don't wanna go outside tonight
And in a pipe she flies to the motherland
Or sells love to another man
It's too cold outside
For angels to fly
Angels to fly

Ripped gloves,raincoat
Tried to swim, stay afloat
Dry house, wet clothes
Loose change, bank notes
Weary-eyed, dry throat
Call girl, no phone

And they say
She's in the Class A Team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately, her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us

'Cause we're justunder the upper hand
And go mad for a couple grams
But she don't wanna go outside tonight
And in a pipe she flies to the motherland
Sells love to another man
It's too cold outside
For angels to fly

An angel will die
Covered in white
Closed eyes and hopin' for a better life
This time, we'll fade out tonight
Straight down the line

And they say
She's in the Class A Team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately, her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries
They scream
The worst things in life come free to us

And we're all underthe upper hand
And go mad for a couple grams
And we don't wanna go outside tonight
And in the pipe, fly to the motherland
Or sell love to another man
It's too cold outside
For angels to fly
Angels to fly
Fly, fly
For angels to fly, to fly, to fly
Angels to die

David Lee Roth----"Just a Gigolo/I Ain't Got Nobody"  

Just a Gigolo / I Ain't Got Nobody是一首关于 舞男（选用gigolo比较中性的译法，其他你懂的）的歌曲，本版本是重金属乐队 Van Halen 原主唱Rocker David Lee Roth 于1985年翻唱的。歌曲描述了一个长期从事舞男事业的男子，外表狂野 内心哀伤寂寞，百转千回地焦虑未来人老珠黄，意欲转换职业，却又无法洗脱历史的标签的无奈。

一失足成千古恨，软饭也不是好吃的。

Lyrics

I'm just a gigolo and everywhere Igo
People know the part I'm playing
Paid for every dance, selling each romance
Ooh, what they're sayin'

Therewill come a day when youth will pass away
What will they say about me?
When the end comes, I know
They were just the gigolos
Life goes on without me

I'mjust a gigolo and everywhere I go
People know the part Dave's playing
Paid for every dance, selling each romance
Ooh, what they're sayin'

Butthere will come a day when youth will pass away
What will they say about me?
When the end comes, I know
It was just a gigolo
Life goes on without me, 'cause

Iain't got nobody
Nobody cares for me, nobody
Nobody cares for me
I'm so sad and lonely
Sad and lonely, sad and lonely
Won't some sweet mama come and take a chance with me?
'Cause I ain't so bad

Betterlove me, babe
Sad and lonesome, all of the time
Even on the beat, on the, on the, on the beat
Bop, boze-de-boze-de-bop, se-de-bop

Iain't got nobody
Nobody cares for me, nobody
Nobody, hey, say

Singin'bout that soul
Singin' bout you Lord
Baby
You heard it
Feeling kind of good, babe
Little soul
Little love song
Ow, singin' 'bout

FeelingI ain't got nobody
Woohoo, sad and lonesome baby
Need love
Humala bebuhla zeebuhla boobuhla
Humala bebuhla zeebuhla bop

Iain't got nobody
Nobody, nobody cares for me, nobody, nobody
I'm so sad and lonely
Sad and lonely, sad and lonely
Won't some sweet mama come and take a chance with me?
'Cause I ain't so bad

Been alonely soul
Been lonesome all of the time
Even on the beat
Johnny, Johnny on the beat
Need a long tall darling, mama
David said he got nobody I loves

Ain'tgot nobody (nobody), nobody (nobody)
Nobody (nobody), nobody (nobody)
No one (no one), no one (no one)
Loop-de-loop (loop-de-loop)
Darling, darling (darling, darling)
Getting serious (getting serious)
Got to see the walls (got to see the walls)
Over there (over there)
Nobody (nobody), not no one (not no one)
Nobody (nobody), nobody (nobody)

Bruce Springsteen---- Reno

Bruce Springsteen于2005年发布的专辑“Devilsand Dust”中的一首歌曲，该专辑的主题按Bruce Springsteen的解释是关于“处于威胁或危险之下的灵魂”的。Reno 是其中一首歌曲，描述了主人公在Reno酒店与应召女郎交欢时，现实与回忆的交织，灵与肉的碰撞的感受。

一时的欢愉，声色犬马的放纵，终难解心灵的失落与精神的颓废以及无尽的忏悔。

米兰 昆德拉说过：“除却生理之外的你所感受 的痛苦，都是人的观念所带来的，而非真实存在”，所以困于情网的至尊宝，永远无法成为 齐天大圣。

Lyrics

She took off her stockings, I held them to my face.
She had your ankles, I felt filled with grace.
"Two hundred dollars straight in,
Two-fifty up the ass, " she smiled and said.
She unbuckled my belt, pulled back her hair,
And sat in front of me on the bed.
She said, "Honey how's that feel, do you want me to goslow?"
My eyes drifted out the window, down to the road below.

I felt my stomachtighten. The sun bloodied the sky
And sliced through the hotel blinds. I closed my eyes.
Sunlight on the Amatitlan, sunlight streaming through yourhair.
In the Valle de dos Rios, smell of mock orange filled theair.
We rode with the vaqueros, down into cool rivers of green.
I was sure the work and that smile coming out 'neath yourhat
Was all I'd ever need.
Somehow all you ever need's, never really quite enough youknow.
You and I, Maria, we learned it's so.

She slipped me outof her mouth, "You're ready, " she said.
She took off her bra and panties, wet her finger, slippedit inside her,
And crawled over me on the bed.
She poured me another whiskey,
Said, "Here's to the best you ever had."
We laughed and made a toast.
It wasn't the best I ever had,
Not even close.

Reba McEntire    ---- "Fancy"  

"Fancy" 是 Bobbie Gentry 于1969年录制的一首乡村歌曲，1990 年由 Reba McEntir 翻唱。歌曲描写了一个18岁的贫困家庭的奥尔良姑娘，为了生存，不得不去从事皮肉生涯，最后不折手段混迹上流社会的故事。


歌曲被Bobbie Gentry 视为是对女权运动所做的最强烈的声明。


Lyrics



I remember it all very well, lookin' back
It was the summer I turned eighteen
We lived in a one room, rundown shack
On the outskirts of New Orleans
We didn't have money for food or rent
To say the least, we were hard pressed
Then Mama spent every last penny we had
To buy me a dancin' dress
Mama washed and combed and curled my hair
And then she painted my eyes and lips, then I stepped into a satin
Dancin' dress that had a split on the side clean up to my hip
It was red velvet trim and it fit me good
Standin' back from the lookin' glass
There stood a woman where a half gown kid had stood
She said, "here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down
Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down"
Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my neck
Then she kissed my cheek
And then I saw the tears wellin' up in her troubled eyes
As she started to speak
She looked at our pitiful shack
And then she looked at me and took a ragged breath
She said your pa's runned off and I'm real sick
And the baby's gonna starve to death
She handed me a heart shaped locket that said
"To thine own self be true"
And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across
The toe of my high heel shoe
It sounded like somebody else, it was talkin'
Askin', "mama, what do I do?"
She said, "just be nice to the gentlemen, Fancy
They'll be nice to you"
She said, "here's your chance, Fancy, don't let me down
Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down
Lord, forgive me for what I do
But if you want out, well, it's up to you
Now don't let me down now
Your mama's gonna move you uptown
Well, that was the last time I saw my ma
The night I left that rickety shack
The welfare people came and took the baby
Mama died and I ain't been back
But the wheels of fate had started to turn
And for me there was no way out
And it wasn't very long 'til I knew exactly
What my mama'd been talkin' about
I knew what I had to do and I made myself this solemn vow
That I's gonna be a lady someday
Though I don't know when or how
But I couldn't see spending the rest of my life
With my head hung down in shame
You know I might have been born just plain white trash
But Fancy was my name
She said, "Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down
She said, "Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down"
It wasn't long after a benevolent man
Took me in off the streets
And one week later, I was pourin' his tea
In a five room hotel suite
I charmed a king, a congressman
And an occasional aristocrat
And then I got me a Georgia mansion
And an elegant New York townhouse flat
And I ain't done bad (she ain't done bad)
Now in this world, there's a lot of self-righteous hypocrites
That'd call me bad
And criticize mama for turning me out
No matter how little we had
But though I ain't had to worry 'bout nothin'
For nigh on fifteen years
Well, I can still hear the desperation
In my poor mama's voice ringin' in my ears
"Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down
Oh, here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down
Lord, forgive me for what I do
But if you want out, well, it's up to you
Now don't let me down
Your mama's gonna move you uptown
And I guess she did
