《State Of Arkansas》歌词

[00:00:00] State Of Arkansas - The Almanac Singers

[00:00:05] My name is charlie brennan

[00:00:09] From charleston I come

[00:00:13] I've traveled this wide world over

[00:00:17] Some ups and downs I've had

[00:00:21] I've traveled this wide world over

[00:00:24] Some ups and downs I've saw

[00:00:28] But I never knew what misery was

[00:00:32] 'Till I hit old arkansas

[00:00:37] I dodged behind the depot

[00:00:40] To dodge that blizzard wind

[00:00:43] Met a walking skeleton

[00:00:45] Whose name was thomas quinn

[00:00:47] His hair hung down like rat tails

[00:00:50] On his long and lantern jaw

[00:00:52] He invited me to his hotel

[00:00:56] The best in arkansas

[00:01:01] I followed my conductor

[00:01:03] To his respected place

[00:01:06] There pity and starvation

[00:01:08] Was seen on every face

[00:01:11] His bread it was corn dodger

[00:01:13] His meat I couldn't chaw

[00:01:15] But he charged me half a dollar

[00:01:18] In the state of arkansas

[00:02:13] I'm going to an indian territory

[00:02:16] And marry me come from

[00:02:20] If farewel to the came bridge

[00:02:23] And the stage of art come from

[00:02:26] If you ever see me back again

[00:02:29] I will extend with you my call

[00:02:32] But it will be through a telescope

[00:02:38] From where do I can talk
