《Streets of Laredo》歌词

[00:00:00] Streets of Laredo - Arlo Guthrie (阿洛·古利)

[00:00:28] As I walked out in the streets of Laredo

[00:00:35] As I walked out in Laredo one day

[00:00:41] I spied a poor cowboy wrapped up in white linen

[00:00:47] All wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay

[00:00:56] I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy

[00:01:02] These words he did say as I proudly stepped by

[00:01:09] Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story

[00:01:15] I'm shot in the breast and I know I must die

[00:01:24] It was once in the saddle I used to go ridin'

[00:01:30] Once in the saddle I used to go gay

[00:01:37] First lead to drinkin' and then to card playing

[00:01:43] I'm shot in the breast and I'm dying today

[00:01:51] Let six jolly cowboys come carry my coffin

[00:01:58] Let six pretty gals come to carry my pall

[00:02:05] Throw bunches of roses all over my coffin

[00:02:11] Throw roses to deaden the clods as they fall

[00:02:19] Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly

[00:02:26] And play the dead march as you carry me along

[00:02:32] Take me to the green valley and lay the earth o'er me

[00:02:39] For I'm a poor cowboy and I know I've done wrong

[00:02:47] We beat the drum slowly and played the fife lowly

[00:02:54] And bitterly wept as we carried him along

[00:03:00] For we all loved our comrade so brave young and handsome

[00:03:07] We all loved our comrade although he done wrong
