《Tulare Dust》歌词

[00:00:00] Tulare Dust - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)

[00:00:10] Tulare dust in a farm boy's nose

[00:00:14] Wondering where the freight train goes

[00:00:18] Standing in the field by the railroad track

[00:00:22] Cursing the strap on my cotton sack

[00:00:26] I can see mom and dad with shoulders low

[00:00:31] Both of 'em picking on a double row

[00:00:35] They do it for a living because they must

[00:00:39] That's life like it is in the Tulare dust

[00:00:44] The California sun was something new

[00:00:48] That winter we arrived in '42

[00:00:51] And I can still remember how my daddy cussed

[00:00:56] The tumbleweeds here in the Tulare dust

[00:01:10] The valley fever was a common fate

[00:01:12] To the farmworkers here in the Golden State

[00:01:16] And I miss Oklahoma but I'll stay if I must

[00:01:21] And help make a living in the Tulare dust

[00:01:25] The Tulare dust in a farm boy's nose

[00:01:30] Wondering where the freight train goes

[00:01:34] Standing in a cotton field

[00:01:36] By the railroad track

[00:01:39] Cursing the strap on my cotton sack

[00:01:42] I see mom and dad
