《Mean Eyed Cat》歌词

[00:00:00] Mean Eyed Cat - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:08] I give my woman half my money at the general store I said

[00:00:13] "Now buy a little groceries and don't spend no more "

[00:00:17] But she gave ten dollars for a ten cent hat

[00:00:21] And bought some store bought cat food for a mean eyed cat

[00:00:27] When I give her ten more dollars for a one way ticket

[00:00:30] She was mad as she could be

[00:00:35] Then I bet ten more that if she ever left

[00:00:39] She'd come a-crawlin' back to me

[00:01:00] When I woke up this mornin' and I turned my head

[00:01:03] There wasn't a cotton pickin' thing on her side of the bed

[00:01:08] I found a little old note where her head belonged

[00:01:12] It said "Dear John honey baby I'm long gone "

[00:01:17] When I heard a whistle blowin' and the big wheels a-turnin'

[00:01:21] I was scared as I could be

[00:01:26] I put on my overalls and I headed to town

[00:01:30] Gonna bring her back with me

[00:01:50] I asked the man down at the station

[00:01:53] If he'd seen her there

[00:01:54] I told him all about her pretty eyes and long blonde hair

[00:01:59] He spit his tobacco said "I'll be dad blamed

[00:02:03] I believe I did see her leavin' on the east bound train "

[00:02:08] I bought a round trip ticket on the east bound train

[00:02:13] I was broke as I could be

[00:02:17] But when I come back

[00:02:19] Gotta buy another ticket

[00:02:21] Gotta bring her back with me
