《Trouble in the Amen Corner》歌词

[00:00:00] Trouble in the Amen Corner - Porter Wagoner The Blackwood Brothers Quartet
[00:00:11] It was a stylish congregation you could see they'd been around
[00:00:16] And they had the biggest pipe organ of any church in town
[00:00:20] But over in the amen corner of that church sat brother Ira
[00:00:24] And he insisted every Sunday on singing in the choir
[00:00:28] His voice was cracked and broken age had touched his vocal chords
[00:00:33] And nearly every Sunday he'd get behind and miss the words
[00:00:38] Well at last the storm cloud burst and the church was told in vine
[00:00:43] That brother Ira must stop his singing or the choir was gonna resign
[00:00:48] So the pastor appointed a committee I think it was three or four
[00:00:52] And they got their big fine car and drove up to Ira's door
[00:00:58] They found the choir's great trouble sittin' in an old arm chair
[00:01:03] And the summer's golden sunbeams lay upon his snow white hair
[00:01:10] Said York we're here dear brother with the best res approbation
[00:01:14] To discuss a little matter that affects the congregation
[00:01:18] Now it was our understanding when we bargained for the chair
[00:01:22] That they were to relieve us that is they'd do the singing for us
[00:01:27] Now we don't want no singing except what we've bought
[00:01:31] The newest tunes are all the rage the old ones stand for Nought
[00:01:36] And so we have decided are you listenin' brother ira
[00:01:42] You'll have to stop your singing it's messin' up our choir
[00:01:48] The old man raised his head a sign that he did hear
[00:01:52] And on his cheek the three men caught the glitter of a tear
[00:01:58] His feeble hands pushed back the locks as white as silky snow
[00:02:03] And he answered the committee in a voice both soft and low
[00:02:12] I've sung the songs of David nearly eighty years said he
[00:02:17] They've been my staff and comfort all along life's dreary way
[00:02:23] I'm sorry if I disturbed the choir I guess I'm doing wrong
[00:02:28] But when my heart is filled with praise I can't hold back a song
[00:02:35] I wonder if beyond the tide that's breaking at my feet
[00:02:39] In that far off heavenly temple where my master I shall meet
[00:02:44] Yes I wonder if when I try to sing the songs of god up higher
[00:02:49] I wonder if they'll kick me out up there for singing in heaven's choir
[00:02:56] A silence filled the little room the old man bowed his head
[00:03:01] The committee went on back to town but brother Ira was dead
[00:03:06] Oh the choir missed him for a while but he was soon forgot
[00:03:10] And a few church goers watched the door but the old man entered not
[00:03:15] Far away his voice is sweet and he sings his heart's desire
[00:03:19] Where there are no church committees and no fashionable choirs
