《Coward of the Country》歌词

[00:00:00] Coward Of The Country - Billy White
[00:00:02] Written by:R. BOWLING
[00:00:11] Ev'ryone considered him
[00:00:13] The coward of the County
[00:00:17] He'd never stood
[00:00:19] One single time
[00:00:20] To prove the counrtry wrong
[00:00:24] His mama named him Tommy
[00:00:27] The folks just called him yellow
[00:00:31] But something always told me
[00:00:33] They were reading Tommy wrong
[00:00:38] He was only ten years old
[00:00:40] When his daddy died in prison
[00:00:44] I looked after Tommy
[00:00:47] 'Cause he was my brother's son
[00:00:51] I still recall the final words
[00:00:53] My brother said to Tommy
[00:00:57] Son my life is over
[00:01:00] Joy 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
[00:01:15] It won'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
[00:01:31] There's someone for ev'ryone and
[00:01:33] Tommy's love was Becky
[00:01:38] In her arms he didn't have to prove he was a man
[00:01:44] One day while he was workin'
[00:01:47] The Gatlin boys came callin'
[00:01:51] They took turns at Becky
[00:01:54] There was three of them
[00:01:58] Tommy opened up the door and saw his Becky cryin'
[00:02:04] The torn dress the shattered look
[00:02:06] Was more than he could stand
[00:02:11] He reached above the fireplace
[00:02:13] And took down his daddy's picture
[00:02:17] As his tears fell on his daddy's face
[00:02:20] He heard these words again
[00:02:24] Promise me son not to do the things I've done
[00:02:29] Walk away from trouble if you can
[00:02:34] It won't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
[00:02:40] I hope you're old enough to understand
[00:02:45] Son you don't have to fight to be a man
[00:02:50] The Gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked
[00:02:54] Into the barroom
[00:02:57] One of them got up
[00:02:59] And met him halfway 'Cross the floor
[00:03:03] When Tommy turned around they said Hey look ol' yellow's leavin'
[00:03:11] But you coulda heard a pin drop when Tommy stopped and blocked
[00:03:14] The door
[00:03:17] Twenty years of crawlin'
[00:03:19] Was bottled up inside him
[00:03:23] He wasn't holdin' nothin' back
[00:03:26] Let 'Em have it all
[00:03:30] When Tommy left the barroom
[00:03:32] Not a Gatlin boy was standin'
[00:03:37] He said This one's for Becky
[00:03:39] As he watched the last
[00:03:40] One fall
[00:03:41] And I heard him say
[00:03:43] I promised you Dad not to do the things you done
[00:03:48] I walk away from trouble when I can
[00:03:54] Now please don't think I'm weak I didn't turn the other cheek
[00:03:59] And Papa I sure hope you understand
[00:04:04] Sometimes you gotta fight when you're a man
[00:04:10] Ev'ryone considered him
[00:04:12] The coward of the County
