《Don’t Go Near The Water》歌词

[00:00:00] Don't Go Near The Water - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:00] Written by：Johnny Cash

[00:00:09] From the fountains in the mountains

[00:00:11] Comes the water running cool and clear and blue

[00:00:16] And it comes down from the hills

[00:00:18] And it goes down to the towns and passes through

[00:00:23] When it gets down to the cities

[00:00:25] Then the water turns into a dirty gray

[00:00:30] It's poisoned and polluted

[00:00:32] By the people as it goes along its way

[00:00:37] Don't go near the water children

[00:00:40] See the fish all dead upon the shore

[00:00:44] Don't go near the water

[00:00:47] Cause the water isn't water anymore

[00:00:52] I took my boy fishin' to my old favorite fishin' hole

[00:00:55] I had caught many a fish out of that deep clear water

[00:00:59] From the time I was a boy like him

[00:01:01] After we'd fished a few minutes

[00:01:03] He said "Did you get a bite yet daddy "

[00:01:06] I said "I think I got a nibble son"

[00:01:08] "Me too" he said

[00:01:10] Then he said "Daddy if we catch a fish can we eat him"

[00:01:14] I said "Well there was a time son

[00:01:17] This water's bad now and I might not be safe to eat the fish

[00:01:22] But there was a time"

[00:01:25] There was a time the air was clean

[00:01:28] And you could see forever 'cross the plains

[00:01:32] The wind was sweet as honey

[00:01:34] And no one had ever heard of acid rain

[00:01:39] We're torturin' the earth

[00:01:40] And pourin' every kind of evil in the sea

[00:01:46] We violated nature

[00:01:48] And our children have to pay the penalty

[00:01:53] Don't go near the water children

[00:01:55] See the fish all dead upon the shore

[00:01:59] Don't go near the water

[00:02:01] Cause the water isn't water anymore

[00:02:06] Don't go near the water children

[00:02:08] See the fish all dead upon the shore

[00:02:13] Don't go near the water

[00:02:15] Cause the water isn't water anymore
