《Coward Of The County》歌词

[00:00:00] Artist:kenny rogers
[00:00:02] Songs Title:coward of the county
[00:00:11] Ev'ryone considered him the coward of the county
[00:00:17] He never stood one single time to prove the county wrong
[00:00:24] His mama named him Tommy but folks just called him yellow
[00:00:31] But something always told me they were reading Tommy wrong
[00:00:37] He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison
[00:00:44] Well I looked after Tommy 'cause he was my brother's son
[00:00:50] And I still recall the final words my brother said to Tommy:
[00:00:54] "Son my life is over but yours is just begun "
[00:01:04] "Promise me son not to do the things I've done
[00:01:09] Walk away from trouble if you can
[00:01:14] Now it don't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
[00:01:20] I hope you're old enough to understand:
[00:01:25] Son you don't have to fight to be a man "
[00:01:30] There's someone for ev'ryone Tommy's love was Becky
[00:01:35] In her arms he didn't have to prove he was a man
[00:01:43] One day while he was workin' the Gatlin boys came callin'
[00:01:49] They took turns at Becky there was three of them
[00:01:57] Tommy opened up the door and saw his Becky cryin'
[00:02:03] The torn dress the shattered look was more than he could stand
[00:02:09] He reached above the fireplace took down his daddy's picture
[00:02:14] As the tears fell on his daddy's face he heard these words again
[00:02:23] "Promise me son not to do the things I've done
[00:02:28] Walk away from trouble if you can
[00:02:33] Now it don't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
[00:02:38] I hope you're old enough to understand:
[00:02:44] Son you don't have to fight to be a man "
[00:02:49] The Gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the barroom
[00:02:53] One of them got up and met him halfway 'cross the floor
[00:03:02] Then Tommy turned around they said Hey look ol' yellow's leavin' "
[00:03:08] But you coulda heard a pin drop when Tommy stopped and locked the door
[00:03:16] Twenty years of crawlin' was bottled up inside him
[00:03:22] He wasn't holdin' nothin' back; he let 'em have it all
[00:03:28] When Tommy left the barroom not a Gatlin boy was standin'
[00:03:35] He said "This one's for Becky " as he watched the last one fall
[00:03:40] And I heard him say:
[00:03:41] "I promised you Dad not to do the things you've done
[00:03:46] I'll walk away from trouble if I can
[00:03:49] Now please don't think I'm weak I couldn't turn the other cheek
[00:03:56] And papa I sure hope you understand:
[00:04:02] Sometimes you gotta fight when you're a man "
[00:04:08] Ev'ryone considered him the coward of the county
