《Old Rivers》歌词

[00:00:00] Old Rivers - Walter Brennan/James Last (詹姆斯·拉斯特)

[00:00:08] How old was I when I first seen old rivers

[00:00:12] I can't remember when he weren't around

[00:00:16] Well that old fellow did a heap of work

[00:00:20] Spent his whole life walkin' plowed ground

[00:00:24] He had the one roomed shack not far from us sun

[00:00:27] Well we's about as poor as him

[00:00:32] He had one old mule he called midnight

[00:00:36] And I'd trailed along after then

[00:00:40] He used to plow them rows straight and deep

[00:00:44] And I'd come along there behind

[00:00:48] A bustin' up plows

[00:00:49] With my own bare feet

[00:00:52] Old rivers he was a friend of mine

[00:00:56] The sun had get high and that mule he'd work

[00:01:00] Old rivers he'd finally say whoa

[00:01:04] He'd wipe his brow and lean back on the reins gen

[00:01:08] He'd talk about that place he's gonna go

[00:01:11] And say one of these days

[00:01:14] I'm gonna climb that mountain

[00:01:16] Walk up there among them clouds

[00:01:20] Where the cotton's high and the corns're growin'

[00:01:24] And there ain't no fields to plow

[00:01:36] I got a letter today from the folks back home

[00:01:40] They're all fine the crop's dry

[00:01:44] Down near them in mom said shown

[00:01:48] You know old rivers died

[00:01:52] Sittin' here now on this new plowed earth

[00:01:56] Tryin' find me a little shade

[00:02:00] With the sun beatin' down cross the fields I see

[00:02:04] That mule old rivers and me

[00:02:08] Now one of these days I'm gonna climb that mountain

[00:02:12] Walk up there among them clouds

[00:02:16] Where the cotton's high and the corns're growin'

[00:02:20] And there ain't no fields to plow

[00:02:24] The sun beatin' down across the fields I see

[00:02:29] That mule old rivers and me
