《The Caretaker》歌词

[00:00:00] The Caretaker - Johnny Cash

[00:00:00] Written by：Johnny Cash

[00:00:01] I live in the cemetery

[00:00:03] Old caretaker they call me

[00:00:07] In the wintertime I rake the leaves

[00:00:10] And in the summer I cut the weeds

[00:00:14] When a funeral comes the people cry and pray

[00:00:19] They bury their dead and they all go away

[00:00:23] But through their grief

[00:00:25] I still can see

[00:00:27] Their hate and greed and jealousy

[00:00:31] So here I work

[00:00:33] And I somehow hide

[00:00:35] From a world that rushes by outside

[00:00:39] And each night when I rest my head

[00:00:42] I'm contented as the peaceful death

[00:00:51] But who's gonna cry when old John dies

[00:00:54] Who's gonna cry

[00:00:55] When old John dies

[00:00:59] Once I was a young man

[00:01:03] Dashing with the girls

[00:01:06] Now no one wants an old man

[00:01:10] I lost my handsome curls

[00:01:14] But I wanna say

[00:01:16] When my time comes

[00:01:19] Lay me facing the rising sun

[00:01:23] Put me in the corner where I buried my pup

[00:01:26] Tell the preacher to pray

[00:01:28] Then cover me up

[00:01:31] Don't lay flowers where my head should be

[00:01:34] Maybe God let some grow for me

[00:01:38] And all the little children that I love like my own

[00:01:43] Will they be sorry that old john's gone

[00:01:51] Who's gonna cry when old John dies

[00:01:54] Who's gonna cry when old John dies
