《The Puritan》歌词

[00:00:00] The Puritan - Ray Cooper

[00:00:01] Written by：Trad

[00:00:14] I filled my saddlebags with corn

[00:00:18] And bid my home goodbye

[00:00:21] I set out for the west

[00:00:26] With the flaming sun

[00:00:28] In my eyes

[00:00:31] A sword and a bible by my side

[00:00:38] I joined a regiment of horse

[00:00:42] And with them I did go

[00:00:45] We roared up hills and over dales

[00:00:50] As we hunted down

[00:00:52] Our frightened foe

[00:00:54] And the Lord have mercy on their souls

[00:01:02] I've seen castles torn down

[00:01:07] Villages alight and cattle burn

[00:01:11] I've listened to the tolling of the gun

[00:01:16] And the clash of steel

[00:01:18] As morning comes

[00:01:21] And the Lord's seen all that I have done

[00:01:33] They gave me a house in lieu of pay

[00:01:37] With fine grazing land

[00:01:40] A river of silver running through

[00:01:45] It was a paradise

[00:01:47] That I had found

[00:01:50] And the Lord led me to this chosen ground

[00:01:57] But when I hear the crying of a child

[00:02:02] I still hear the rattle of the drum

[00:02:07] And see the shadows hanging in the trees

[00:02:11] And a smell of burning follows me

[00:02:16] And the Lord's seen all that I have done

[00:02:24] But Jesus was always on our side

[00:02:28] A sword of righteousness hung in the sky

[00:02:33] We sang a hymn to make the cowards turn

[00:02:37] And then we cut them down

[00:02:40] As they did run

[00:02:43] And the Lord's seen all that I have done
