《Christmas As I Knew It》歌词
[00:00:00] Christmas As I Knew It - Johnny Cash
[00:00:13] One day near Christmas when I was just a child
[00:00:19] Mama called us together and mama tried to smile
[00:00:24] She said you know the cotton crop hasn't been too good this year
[00:00:29] There's just no spending money and well at least we're all here
[00:00:36] I hope you won't expect a lot of Christmas presents
[00:00:40] Just be thankful that there is plenty to eat
[00:00:43] That'll make things a little more pleasant
[00:00:49] And us kids got to thinking how really blessed we were
[00:00:53] At least we were all healthy and best of all we had her
[00:01:01] Roy cut down a pig apple tree and we drug it home jack and me
[00:01:08] Daddy killed a squirrel and Louise made the bread
[00:01:13] Reba decorated the tree with popcorn strings before we went to bed
[00:01:20] Mama and daddy sacrificed cause this Christmas was lean
[00:01:25] But after all there was the babies tom
[00:01:28] And Joanne babies got have a few things
[00:01:33] I whittled a whistle for my brother jack and though we fought now and then
[00:01:38] When I gave jack that whistle he knew I thought the world of him
[00:01:45] Mama made the girl's dresses out of flower sacks
[00:01:49] And when she ironed them down you couldn't tell that they hadn't come from town
[00:01:56] A sharecropped family across the road didn't have it as good as us
[00:02:02] They didn't even have a light and it was way past dusk
[00:02:08] And mama said well I bet they don't even have coal oil or beans to boil
[00:02:15] A log apples cringes and such
[00:02:21] Me and jack took a jar of coal oil and some hick ernuts we'd found
[00:02:26] We walked to the sharecropper's porch and set 'em down
[00:02:31] A poor old ragged lady eased open the door
[00:02:35] She picked up the coal oil and hick ernuts and said
[00:02:39] I sure do thank ye and quickly closed the door
[00:02:44] We started back home me and jack and about halfway we back
[00:02:53] We looked and in the sharecropper's window at last was a light
[00:02:58] So for one of the neighbors and for us it was a good Christmas night
[00:03:06] Christmas came and Christmas went Christmas that year was heaven sent
[00:03:11] Then daddy put on his gumboots
[00:03:15] Please follow waited for the thaw back home in dyes Arkansas
