《Long Road to Houston》歌词

[00:00:00] Long Road to Houston - Flatt & Scruggs

[00:00:01] Written by：Norman Stephens

[00:00:18] Well it's a long long way from here to Houston

[00:00:23] It's a long long road from here to home

[00:00:28] This cold black night is far from friendly

[00:00:32] But I know that I have got to travel on

[00:00:37] I know the things are mighty fat in Houston

[00:00:42] And they pick me up as soon as I hit town

[00:00:47] But I'm lonesome for the things that I am used to

[00:00:51] Even though before I left she put me down

[00:00:56] I'll just have to take my chances when I get there

[00:01:01] Cause I know the law is surely after me

[00:01:06] But I think I'd rather be in jail in Houston

[00:01:10] Than walkin' down this road in Tennessee

[00:01:20] I was doin' fine and that's for certain

[00:01:25] But her greedy ways were found to do me in

[00:01:30] Her taste for pretty things soon had me hurtin'

[00:01:34] And I found myself a headin' for the bend

[00:01:39] I'll be there when the sun comes up tomorrow

[00:01:44] Now I have to pay for things that I have done

[00:01:48] Just being there would take away my sorrow

[00:01:53] But it's worthy just to see that Houston sun

[00:01:58] I'll just have to take my chances when I get there

[00:02:03] Cause I know the law is surely after me

[00:02:08] But I think I'd rather be in jail in Houston

[00:02:12] Than walkin' down this road in Tennessee

[00:02:17] Than walkin' down this road in Tennessee

[00:02:22] Lord I'm walkin' down this road in Tennessee
