《Pick The Wildwood Flower》歌词

[00:00:00] Pick The Wildwood Flower - GENE WATSON

[00:00:05] Them Texas fields were hot

[00:00:07] And that tractor never was my kinda living

[00:00:13] And when I hit sixteen I had the size

[00:00:17] And I hit the road to freedom

[00:00:20] And I'm glad I wasn't there to see my mama

[00:00:24] Cause she must have cried for hours

[00:00:30] I still hear her saying gary

[00:00:33] Get your guitar and pick the wild wood flower

[00:00:41] Now Dallas it was big and hard to find a job

[00:00:45] And so I didn't

[00:00:48] It was easier to hitch a ride to Houston

[00:00:52] And it was more like living

[00:00:56] Now I've been down every road

[00:00:58] And I've stood on every porch where they were giving

[00:01:06] And if they had an hour or a dime

[00:01:10] I would pick the wild wood flower

[00:01:16] It's hard to turn around and look back

[00:01:20] Down the roads that I have traveled

[00:01:24] Cause like a never ending ball of twine

[00:01:28] My dreams have come unraveled

[00:01:31] And now as evening lays it's shawl

[00:01:34] Across the shoulders of my life I have found

[00:01:41] I couldn't tie my life together

[00:01:44] With guitar strings and a poet's heart felt line

[00:01:52] And I'm so glad I wasn't there to see my mama

[00:01:56] Cause she must have cried for hours

[00:02:02] I still hear her saying gary

[00:02:05] Get your guitar and pick the wild wood flower
