《George Gudger’s Overalls》歌词

[00:00:00] George Gudger's Overalls - Doc Watson
[00:00:06] As I walked out one mornin'
[00:00:08] In the Alabama chill
[00:00:12] I saw some old friends hangin'
[00:00:15] From a tree on Hobie's Hill
[00:00:19] By their tattered legs
[00:00:20] They dangled drippin' down along the spine
[00:00:25] It was old George Gudger's overalls
[00:00:28] A-drying on the line
[00:00:33] George Gudger he's an honest cuss
[00:00:36] And he likes to work his land
[00:00:39] I'd long admired them overalls
[00:00:42] That I held there in my hand
[00:00:45] My brand new pair was stiffer
[00:00:48] Than a starched-up Sunday suit
[00:00:51] But his could walk 'round by themselves
[00:00:55] And plow the corn to boot
[00:00:59] Now the knees looked almost bloody
[00:01:02] From the red Hale County clay
[00:01:05] George Gudger's debts and prayers had kept him
[00:01:09] Kneelin' down all day
[00:01:14] Old George owes me money
[00:01:16] But I owe him my respect
[00:01:20] If these overalls will fit me
[00:01:22] Boy I'll forget about his debt
[00:01:32] I stepped in to them big old legs like fallin
[00:01:36] Down a mine
[00:01:38] Then I heard a ragged chuckle
[00:01:41] And there stood old George behind
[00:01:44] A smile of old tobacco juice was tricklin
[00:01:49] Down his chin
[00:01:51] He said "You might as well try walkin' round
[00:01:54] In someone else's skin "
[00:01:58] "But son
[00:02:00] If you like them old friends of mine so much
[00:02:02] I guess I can let 'em go
[00:02:05] Had to lean 'em to me wife last year
[00:02:07] While she's carry'n Little Joe
[00:02:11] She bent down in the fields one day
[00:02:14] And split that tired old seam
[00:02:17] And now she gone and beat 'em half to death
[00:02:20] On that rock down by the stream'
[00:02:25] The knees looked almost bloody
[00:02:28] From the red Hale County clay
[00:02:31] George Gudger's debts and prayers
[00:02:34] Kept him they kneelin' down all day
[00:02:38] You know I walked just like a drunken man
[00:02:42] They almost made me fall
[00:02:46] They kept tryin' to steer me back place towards Gudger's
[00:02:49] Cuz they're still Old George's overalls
[00:02:52] At home before the mirror
[00:02:55] I seemed to be a different man
[00:02:58] In my mind they kept a seein'
[00:03:01] His farmed out patch of land
[00:03:04] So I took him back his overalls and a week supply of food
[00:03:10] I also left my brand new pair and sneaked home in the nude
