《The Little Lady Preacher》歌词

[00:00:00] The Little Lady Preacher - Tom T. Hall
[00:00:06] Oh, the little lady preacher
[00:00:08] From the limestone church
[00:00:11] I'll never forget her, I guess
[00:00:16] She preached each Sunday mornin'
[00:00:17] On the local radio
[00:00:20] With a big black Bible
[00:00:22] And a snow-white dress
[00:00:26] She was nineteen years of age
[00:00:28] And was developed to a fault
[00:00:30] But I will admit she knew the Bible well
[00:00:35] A little white lace hanky marked the text
[00:00:38] That she would use
[00:00:39] She'd breathe into that microphone
[00:00:41] And send us all to hell
[00:00:45] She had a guitar picker
[00:00:47] By the name of Luther Short
[00:00:50] A hairy-legged soul, lost out in sin
[00:00:54] She would turn and smile at Luther
[00:00:56] When the program would commence
[00:00:59] With a voice as sweet as angels
[00:01:01] She would break out in a hymn
[00:01:04] I was pickin' for her too with
[00:01:07] What we call the doghouse bass
[00:01:09] I clung to every word that passed her lips
[00:01:12] She was down on booze and cigarettes
[00:01:16] And high on days to come
[00:01:18] And she'd punctuate the prophecy
[00:01:21] With movements of her hips
[00:01:30] The Lord, knows how I loved her,
[00:01:32] He was there each time she preached
[00:01:34] But ol' Luther took her home each Sunday morn'
[00:01:39] Lookin' back I still recall the way
[00:01:41] It hurt my tender pride
[00:01:43] I longed to be a hero
[00:01:45] But they're made not born
[00:01:49] Sometimes ol' Luther showed up
[00:01:51] At the studio half-tight
[00:01:54] And smokin' was a thing he liked to do
[00:01:58] She never said a word to him
[00:02:01] But said a prayer for me
[00:02:03] I told her in a way that
[00:02:05] I'd been prayin' for her too
[00:02:09] One Sunday her old man showed up
[00:02:11] And said that she was gone
[00:02:13] Said she and brother Luther had a call
[00:02:16] I can see me standin' in
[00:02:20] That studio that day
[00:02:22] I had to face the heartbreak,
[00:02:25] Unemployment and all
[00:02:28] I don't know where they are,
[00:02:30] 'Cause I ain't seen them people since
[00:02:33] Lord, if I judge 'em let me
[00:02:34] Give 'em lots o' room
[00:02:37] I know ol' Luther Short
[00:02:39] And he's a hard ol' boy to change
[00:02:43] And I've often sat and wondered
[00:02:45] Who it was converted whom
