《Drunken Driver》歌词

[00:00:00] Friends my name is Ferlin Husky

[00:00:02] I'd like to tell you 'bout a man that let alcohol

[00:00:05] Destroy everything that God gave him

[00:00:30] I saw an accident one day that would chill the heart of any man

[00:00:35] It would teach them not to drink a drop

[00:00:37] While the steering wheel's in their hand

[00:00:40] This awful accident occurred on the 20th day of May

[00:00:45] And caused two little children to be sleepin' beneath the clay

[00:00:50] These two little kids walked side by side along the state highway

[00:00:55] Their poor old mother she had died

[00:00:58] And their daddy had ran away

[00:01:01] As these two little children walked arm in arm

[00:01:04] How sad their hearts did feel

[00:01:07] When around the curb came a speeding car

[00:01:10] With a drunk man at the wheel

[00:01:13] The drunk man saw the little kids

[00:01:15] And he hollered a drunked sound

[00:01:17] Get out of the road you little fools

[00:01:20] And the car it brought them down

[00:01:24] The bumper struck the little girl takin' her life away

[00:01:28] While the little boy in a puddle of blood

[00:01:31] In the ditch lyin' there did lay

[00:01:34] The drunk man staggered from his car

[00:01:36] To see the damage that he had done

[00:01:38] And then he let out a yell you could hear for miles

[00:01:42] When he recognized his dyin' son

[00:01:45] Such mournin' from a drunken man I've never heard before

[00:01:49] While kneeling down by his car he prayed to heavens door

[00:01:53] Sayin' Oh God please forgive me for this awful crime I've done

[00:01:58] And his attention then was called away

[00:02:02] By the words of his dyin' son

[00:02:05] He said Daddy why did you do this to us

[00:02:09] How come you run us to the ground

[00:02:12] It was you and Mummy we were talkin' about

[00:02:15] When the car it brought us down

[00:02:18] And I was just tellin' little sister

[00:02:20] That I knew we'd see you again someday

[00:02:23] But Daddy why did it have to be this way

[00:02:31] Why did it
