《New Cut Road》歌词

[00:00:00] New Cut Road - Guy Clark

[00:00:15] Coleman bonner was a fiddle playing fool

[00:00:18] He's a backwoods rounder and a breaker of mules

[00:00:22] Coleman bonner's got a wore out bow

[00:00:26] He's been playing two days down the new cut road

[00:00:30] Coleman's little sister said you better act right coleman

[00:00:34] Daddy's gone to louisville he'll be back tonight

[00:00:37] He's gonna get another wagon and a good pair of mules

[00:00:41] And we gonna move to texas we just waiting on you

[00:00:45] Now coleman's daddy he pulled up in the yard

[00:00:49] He said pack up your lives kids it's getting too hard

[00:00:53] Kentucky's alright but there's too many people

[00:00:57] Oh just the other day I thought I saw a church steeple

[00:01:01] Nopw coleman said daddy don't you worry bout me

[00:01:05] I'm gonna stay here in kentucky till the day I D

[00:01:08] I'm gonna drink that sourmash and gonna race that mare

[00:01:13] And find that woman with the fox red hair

[00:01:16] Now you all been moving west since the day you got married

[00:01:20] Well I'm getting off the wagon daddy I'm too old to be carried

[00:01:24] Gonna stay here in kentucky where that bluegrass grow

[00:01:28] I'm gonna play it all night down the new cut road

[00:02:03] Now coleman's daddy said what's it all comng to

[00:02:07] Young people these days are just as stubborn as mules

[00:02:11] You can't make him go he's too old for that

[00:02:14] It's that damned old fiddle and that bowler hat

[00:02:19] Now coleman's mama said let the boy stay

[00:02:22] Cause he's raised up solid and he can find his own way

[00:02:27] But as for me honey I'm with you

[00:02:30] I always thought kentucky was just passing through

[00:02:35] Now coleman's little sister then she started into a crying

[00:02:38] And his daddy shook his head for the very last time

[00:02:43] Coleman's mama said somebody's gotta do it

[00:02:46] Wouldn't be no kentucky less you didn't stick to it coleman

[00:02:51] Coleman booner stood on the porch of that cabin

[00:02:54] And he watched em all go to texas in a covered wagon

[00:02:58] He pulled out his fiddle and he rosined up his bow

[00:03:02] And he played a little tune called the new cut road
