《Poor Ellen Smith》歌词

[00:00:00] Poor Ellen Smith - Laura Cantrell
[00:00:11] Come all you people my story to hear
[00:00:15] What happened to me in June of last year
[00:00:20] Oh its poor Ellen Smith how was she found
[00:00:25] Shot through the heart lying dead on the ground
[00:00:30] Its true I'm in jail a prisoner now
[00:00:35] God is here with me and hears every vow
[00:00:40] So I do promise the truth to relate
[00:00:44] I'll tell you all that I know of Ellen's sad fate
[00:00:50] I saw her on Monday before that sad day
[00:00:54] Found her body lying and took it away
[00:01:00] That she had been murdered never entered my mind
[00:01:04] Till a bullet through the heart they happened to find
[00:01:20] Who is so cruel so heartless so base
[00:01:24] To murder my poor Ellen in such a lonesome place
[00:01:30] I seen her laid out so still and so cold
[00:01:34] I heard the wild stories the witnesses told
[00:01:40] I choked back the tears as the people all said
[00:01:44] "It was you Peter Degraph shot our Ellen Smith dead"
[00:01:50] Ellen lies sleeping with her hand on her breast
[00:01:54] The bloodhounds and the sheriff won't give me no rest
[00:02:00] They got their Winchesters and hunted me down
[00:02:04] I stole away to Mt Airy town
[00:02:10] I laid off a year and I prayed the whole time
[00:02:14] The man could be found what committed the crime
[00:02:30] I prayed I'd come back and my character save
[00:02:34] But the flowers faded round poor Ellen's grave
[00:02:40] I came back to Winston my trial to stand
[00:02:44] I'll live or I'll die as the law might command
[00:02:50] Ellen lies sleeping in that lonesome churchyard
[00:02:54] I stare through the bars God knows it's hard
[00:03:00] I know they will hang me at least if they can
[00:03:04] But I swear to you I'll die as an innocent man
[00:03:10] My soul will be free when I stand at the bar
[00:03:14] Where God tries his cross then there like a star
[00:03:21] That shines in the night will my innocence shine
[00:03:25] And I'll make my appeal to the justice of time
