《Fool’s Paradise》歌词

[00:00:00] Fool's Paradise - Jim Reeves (吉姆·里夫斯)

[00:00:11] As I write this letter to you darling

[00:00:18] I can't hold the teardrops from my eyes

[00:00:26] For at sundown I will lay a dying at the door of the fool's paradise

[00:00:42] Rode into this cattle town this morning left my bearer to check the market price

[00:00:57] And I walked into the nearest barroom they call it the fool's paradise

[00:01:12] There the crowd was gay and girls were dancing

[00:01:20] And the men were playing cards and dies

[00:01:27] So I stepped up to the bar to join them

[00:01:35] What a grand place this fool's paradise

[00:01:43] It was then I showed to them your picture

[00:01:50] I passed it around once or twice

[00:01:58] Then a man insulted your sweet honor at the bar of the fool's paradise

[00:02:15] So I slapped his face and I told him

[00:02:18] I said you eat 'em words mister or draw that's my advice

[00:02:25] And he said well somebody might get hurty inside

[00:02:30] But I'll be glad to meet you in the street at sundown

[00:02:36] At sundown in front of the fool's paradise

[00:02:43] So goodbye my darling may god bless you I go to make this sacrifice

[00:02:58] And if ever you visit old dodge city remember the fool's paradise
