Oh, Pretty Woman (1964) – Roy Orbison

Pretty woman, walking’ down the street
Pretty woman the kind I like to meet
Pretty woman I don’t believe you, you’re not the truth
No one could look as good as you, mercy.

Oh, Pretty Woman (1964) – Roy Orbison

今天為大家介紹的歌曲,Oh, Pretty Woman,相信大家對這首歌曲都並不陌生,歌曲名稱正正是它印象深刻的地方。歌曲於1964年由Roy Orbison演唱,歌曲長達3分鐘,屬於經典的Rock and roll,作曲填詞由Roy Orbison及Bill Dees聯手合作。不用多說的是,它是一首榜上有名的歌曲。在1964英美等地的音樂榜Billboard長居於單曲榜榜首,歌曲的突破性可說是奠定了Roy Orbison的事業高峰。另外,歌曲被美國唱片業協會(RIAA)評選為金唱。

據稱歌曲名稱靈感由來是因為Roy Orbison的老婆一事,她向Roy Orbison告知要外出,正當Roy Orbison問老婆是否需要錢的時候,Bill Dees便插嘴說「正妹是不需要任何金錢」"A pretty woman never needs any money"

歌詞方面

填詞作曲由Roy Orbison及Bill Dees創作

Pretty woman, walking’ down the street
Pretty woman the kind I like to meet
Pretty woman I don’t believe you, you’re not the truth
No one could look as good as you, mercy.

Pretty woman won’t you pardon me
Pretty woman I couldn’t help but see
Pretty woman that you look lovely as can be
Are you lonely just like me.

Pretty woman stop awhile
Pretty woman talk awhile
Pretty woman give your smile to me
Pretty woman yeah, yeah, yeah
Pretty woman look my way
Pretty woman say you’ll stay with me
Cause I need you, I’ll treat you right
Come with me baby, be mine tonight

Pretty woman don’t walk on by
Pretty woman don’t make me cry
Pretty woman don’t walk away, hey, OK
If that’s the way it must be, OK
I guess I’ll go on home, it’s late
There’ll be tomorrow night, but wait
What do I see?
Is she walking’ back to me?
Yeah, she’s walking’ back to me
Oh, oh, pretty woman.
