《Death in Arkansas》歌词

[00:00:14] I remember how the wood would smell
[00:00:19] Just as the last great tree was felled
[00:00:23] Like many that came before
[00:00:26] It was used for table and a door
[00:00:29] A palette and a long hall rack
[00:00:33] Hung my great grandfather's hat
[00:00:37] A stable and a barn, a bed and a seat
[00:00:43] A roof and fence and a floor that creaked
[00:00:50] And a coffin leanin against the wall
[00:00:54] When there was a death in Arkansas
[00:01:10] I liked the wagons and the wheels
[00:01:13] The wind that knocked us down in the fields
[00:01:16] And the girls with the southern drawl
[00:01:20] And those that came before were the pictures on the wall
[00:01:25] And the lone dogs howled and the crows would caw
[00:01:29] When there was a death in Arkansas
[00:01:35] We were laid to rest out under the sun
[00:01:39] And we breathed our last
[00:01:40] And it was done
[00:01:42] And the air redeemed us and we would learn
[00:01:47] That a life was hallowed and we wouldn't burn
[00:01:52] Hands folded gently to say goodbye
[00:01:56] It was just this place underneath the sky
[00:02:00] Do you see our bones hidin like a toad
[00:02:04] In the old red dirt that is now a road
[00:02:10] Beneath the sign that blinks off on
[00:02:13] And a shopping mall where the house is gone
[00:02:20] Forgetting that a soul may call
[00:02:24] When there is a death in Arkansas
[00:02:55] And a quilten patch of new concrete
[00:02:59] Helps the trucks roll down the street
[00:03:02] There's a Dollar Store by the setting sun
[00:03:05] And a sign on the church says His Will is Done
[00:03:13] I can't see the birds or find the fields
[00:03:17] That hold my bones beneath the wheels
[00:03:23] And a mother worries that her son won't call
[00:03:28] And a tv stares at a blinking wall
[00:03:34] But the lone dogs howl and the crows still call
[00:03:39] When there is a death in Arkansas
