《A Drunkards Child》歌词

[00:00:00] A Drunkards Child - Hank Snow/D.R

[00:00:01] Written by：Jimmie Rodgers/Andrew Jenkins

[00:00:06] My father is a drunkard

[00:00:12] My mother she is dead

[00:00:18] And I am just an orphan child

[00:00:23] No place to lay my head

[00:00:29] All thru this world I wander

[00:00:35] They drive me from their door

[00:00:41] Some day I'll find a welcome

[00:00:46] On heaven's golden shore

[00:00:52] Now if to me you'll listen

[00:00:58] I'll tell my story sad

[00:01:03] How drinking rum and gambling

[00:01:08] Hell has stole away my dad

[00:01:15] My mother is in heaven

[00:01:20] Where God and the angels smile

[00:01:26] And now I know she's watching

[00:01:32] Her lonely orphan child

[00:02:24] We all were once so happy

[00:02:29] And had a happy home

[00:02:35] Till dad he went to drinking rum

[00:02:41] And then he gambled some

[00:02:46] He left my darling mother

[00:02:52] She died of a broken heart

[00:02:58] And as I tell my story

[00:03:04] I see your tear drops start

[00:03:09] Don't weep for me and mother

[00:03:15] Altho' I know 'tis said

[00:03:21] But try to get someone to cheer

[00:03:26] And save my poor lonely dad

[00:03:32] I'm awful cold and hungry

[00:03:38] She closed her eyes and sighed

[00:03:44] Then those who heard her story

[00:03:49] Knew the orphan child has died
