《The Boy Who Wouldn’t Hoe Corn(Live From The Louisville Palace， Kentucky / 2002)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn - Alison Krauss (艾莉森·克劳丝)

[00:01:48] Tell You a little story and it won't take long

[00:01:57] 'Bout a lazy farmer who wouldn't hoe his corn

[00:02:05] The reason why I never could tell

[00:02:15] That young man was always well

[00:02:27] He planted his corn in the month of June

[00:02:36] By July it was up to his eyes

[00:02:44] Come September came a big frost

[00:02:54] And all the young man's corn was lost

[00:03:23] His story kith had just begun

[00:03:29] Said: "Young man have you hoed some corn "

[00:03:34] "Well I tried and I tried and I tried in vain

[00:03:41] "But I don't believe I raised no grain "

[00:04:03] He went down town to his neighbour's door

[00:04:10] Where he had often been before

[00:04:15] Sayin': "Pretty little miss will you marry me "

[00:04:22] "Little miss what do you say "

[00:04:45] "Why do you come for me to wed

[00:04:51] "You can't even make your own corn grain

[00:04:56] "Single I am and will remain

[00:05:02] "A lazy man I won't maintain "

[00:05:09] He turned his back and walked away

[00:05:19] Sayin: "Little miss you'll rue the day

[00:05:26] "You'll rue the day that you were born

[00:05:36] "For givin' me the devil 'cos I wouldn't hoe corn "
