[00:00:00] The Cowboy Who Started The Fight - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:01] Written by：Billy Joe Shaver

[00:00:10] The legs on the lady a walking

[00:00:14] Was tanned to a dark berry brown

[00:00:18] Her body was made like a song to be played

[00:00:22] To the tune of a million a pound

[00:00:27] She was a wonder of a woman I reckon

[00:00:31] And she's who screwed her head on right

[00:00:36] The toast of the world was a long legged girl

[00:00:40] And the cowboy who started the fight

[00:00:45] He'd just pulled into town in an

[00:00:47] Old green 1953 chevrlet pickup truck with

[00:00:51] Whiskey bumbs all over it and the right front fender falling off

[00:00:56] He coasted on into a no parking zone got out and took the

[00:00:59] Keys and chucked them down

[00:01:00] A gutter turned around and just walked off

[00:01:06] He allowed how his time had been wasted

[00:01:11] On drinking and running around

[00:01:15] He spend half his life searching barrooms at night

[00:01:20] For the sweetheart that he never found

[00:01:24] It was plain from the moment their eyes met

[00:01:29] They'd wind up in each others arms

[00:01:33] The lady's young life was laid open that night

[00:01:37] And the cowboy drank deep from of her charms

[00:01:42] Singing hey hide he from the depths of the sea

[00:01:46] To the mountains so hollering high

[00:01:50] I've found the best one under god's given sun

[00:01:55] Yeah the cowboy got lucky tonight

[00:02:01] While the angel beside him lay sleeping

[00:02:06] He silently thanked god above

[00:02:10] For being a kind hear ted father

[00:02:14] And blessing his life with her love

[00:02:19] For one night of love with that woman

[00:02:23] Was more than he knew he deserved

[00:02:27] So he found all he had left worth giving

[00:02:32] And he gave all he had left for her

[00:02:38] He slid back inside his ole Levi's

[00:02:43] And filled up his boots with his feet

[00:02:47] While the subways beneath New York city

[00:02:52] Screamed through the veins of the street

[00:02:56] For the lady gave up without question

[00:03:00] The trophy she saved all her life

[00:03:04] Then she curled up beside

[00:03:06] His old weather worn hide

[00:03:09] And the cowboy just laid down and died

[00:03:14] Hey hide he when a whoop through the street

[00:03:18] As his soul slowly winged out of sight

[00:03:22] The lady was torn from the child being born

[00:03:26] And the cowboy found heaven that night

[00:03:31] The lady was torn from the child being born

[00:03:35] And the cowboy found heaven that night
