《Matthew》歌词

[00:00:00] Matthew (马修) - John Denver (约翰·丹佛)

[00:00:07] Had an uncle named matthew

[00:00:12] Was his fathers only boy

[00:00:16] Born just south of colby kansas

[00:00:20] Was his mothers pride and joy

[00:00:23] Yes and joy was just the thing that he was raised on

[00:00:27] Love was just the way to live and die

[00:00:32] Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield

[00:00:36] Blue just a kansas summer sky

[00:00:41] All the stories that he told me

[00:00:45] Back when I was just a lad

[00:00:50] All the memories that he gave me

[00:00:54] All the good times that he had

[00:00:59] Growin up a kansas farmboy

[00:01:03] Life was mostly havin fun

[00:01:07] Ridin on his daddys shoulders

[00:01:12] Behind a view beneath the sun

[00:01:14] Yes and joy was just the thing that he was raised on

[00:01:19] Love was just the way to live and die

[00:01:23] Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield

[00:01:27] Blue is just a kansas summer sky

[00:01:32] Well I guess there were some hard times

[00:01:36] And I'm told some years were lean

[00:01:41] They had a storm in forty seven

[00:01:44] A twister came and stripped them clean

[00:01:49] He lost the farm and lost his family

[00:01:53] He lost the wheat and lost his home

[00:01:58] But he found a family bible

[00:02:02] Faith as solid as a stone

[00:02:04] Yes and joy was just the thing that he was raised on

[00:02:09] Love was just the way to live and die

[00:02:14] Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield

[00:02:18] Blue just a kansas summer sky

[00:02:23] So he came to live at our house

[00:02:27] And he came to work the land

[00:02:31] He came to ease my daddys burden

[00:02:35] And he came to be my friend

[00:02:40] So I wrote this down for matthew

[00:02:44] And its for him the song is sung

[00:02:49] Ridin on his daddys shoulders

[00:02:53] Behind a mule beneath the sun

[00:02:55] Yes and joy was just the thing that he was raised on

[00:03:00] Love was just the way to live and die

[00:03:04] Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield

[00:03:09] Blue just a kansas summer sky

[00:03:12] Yes and joy was just the thing that he was raised on

[00:03:16] Love was just the way to live and die

[00:03:20] Gold was just a windy kansas wheatfield

[00:03:25] Blue just a kansas summer sky
