《Weeping Willow Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Weeping Willow Blues - Odetta (欧蒂塔)

[00:00:08] I went down to the river sat beneath the willow tree

[00:00:18] The dew dropped on those willow leaves and it rolled right down on me

[00:00:25] And that's the reason I've got those weepin' willow blues

[00:00:33] I went up on the mountain high as any stand

[00:00:42] And looked down on the mean town that took away my lovin' man

[00:00:49] And that's the reason I've got those weepin' willow blues

[00:00:58] I heard the whistle blowin' the fireman ring the bell

[00:01:07] They're takin' away my willow tree that give me this weepin' spell

[00:01:14] And that's the reason I've got those weepin' willow blues

[00:01:51] When you're broken hearted and your man is out of town

[00:01:55] Go to the river take the chains and sit down

[00:01:59] And if he don't come back to you I'll tell you what to do

[00:02:03] Just jump right overboard 'cause he ain't no more to you

[00:02:08] Folks I love my man I kiss him mornin' noon and night

[00:02:11] I wash his clothes and keep him clean and try to treat him right

[00:02:15] Now he's gone and left me after all I tried to do

[00:02:19] The way he treats me he'll do the very same to you

[00:02:24] That's the reason I've got those weepin' willow blues
