《California Cotton Fields》歌词

[00:00:00] California Cotton Fields - Greg Graffin

[00:00:00] My driftin' memory goes back

[00:00:02] To the spring of forty two

[00:00:04] When I was just a child in

[00:00:06] Momma's arms

[00:00:08] My daddy plowed the fields and

[00:00:09] Prayed and did all he could

[00:00:11] Do to save that broke down

[00:00:13] Oklahoma farm

[00:00:16] Well one night I heard my

[00:00:18] Daddy sayin' to my momma

[00:00:20] That he finally saved enough for us to go

[00:00:24] California was his dream

[00:00:25] A paradise that he had seen

[00:00:27] The pictures and the magazines

[00:00:29] Had told him so

[00:00:32] California cotton fields

[00:00:35] Where labor camps were filled

[00:00:37] With worried men and broken dreams

[00:00:41] California cotton fields

[00:00:44] Was as close to wealth as

[00:00:45] Daddy ever came almost everything

[00:00:49] We owned was sold or left behind

[00:00:52] From daddy's tools to the fruit

[00:00:54] That momma canned some folks came to say

[00:00:57] Farewell and see what all we had to sell

[00:01:00] Some just came to shake my

[00:01:01] Daddy's hand the model t was loaded down

[00:01:05] And California bound and the dream

[00:01:08] Of hope was just four days away

[00:01:11] But the only change that I remember seeing

[00:01:14] In my daddy was when his brown

[00:01:16] Hair turned to silver grey

[00:01:19] California cotton fields

[00:01:23] Where labor camps were filled with worried

[00:01:25] Men and broken dreams

[00:01:28] California cotton fields

[00:01:32] Was as close to wealth as daddy ever came

[00:01:52] California cotton fields

[00:01:56] Where labor camps were filled with worried

[00:01:58] Men and broken dreams

[00:02:01] California cotton fields

[00:02:04] Was as close to wealth as daddy ever came

[00:02:08] Was as close to wealth as daddy ever came

[00:02:12] Was as close to wealth as daddy ever came
