《Mother， Queen Of My Heart》歌词

[00:00:00] Mother, Queen Of My Heart (母亲，我心中的女王) - Leon Redbone (蓝蒙·瑞博)

[00:00:09] I had a home out in Texas

[00:00:15] Down where the blue bonnet's grew

[00:00:22] I had the kindest old mother

[00:00:27] How happy we were just we two

[00:00:34] Till one day the angels' called her

[00:00:39] That debt we all have to pay

[00:00:45] She called me close to her bedside

[00:00:50] These last few words to say

[00:00:56] Son don't start drinking and gambling

[00:01:02] Promise you'll always go straight

[00:01:08] Ten years have passed since that parting

[00:01:12] That promise I've broke I must say

[00:01:20] I started gambling for pastime

[00:01:25] At last I was just like them all

[00:01:30] I bet my clothes and my money

[00:01:35] Never dreaming that I'd ever fall

[00:01:42] One night I bet all my money

[00:01:47] Nothing was left to be seen

[00:01:53] All that I needed to break them was one card

[00:01:59] And that was a queen

[00:02:03] The cards were dealt all 'round the table

[00:02:09] Each man took a card on the draw

[00:02:14] I drew the one that would beat them

[00:02:19] I turned it and here's what I saw

[00:02:25] I saw my mother's picture

[00:02:30] And somehow she seemed to say

[00:02:35] Son you have broken your promise

[00:02:40] So I tossed the cards away

[00:02:47] My winnings I gave to a newsboy

[00:02:52] I knew I was wrong from the start

[00:02:58] And I'll never forget that promise

[00:03:02] To my Mother the queen of my heart
