《Lightnin’ Express》歌词

[00:00:00] Lightnin’ Express - The Everly Brothers (艾佛利兄弟)

[00:00:06] The lightning express from the depot so grand

[00:00:13] Had started out on it's way

[00:00:20] All of the passengers that were on board

[00:00:27] Seemed to be happy and gay

[00:00:34] But one little boy who sat by himself

[00:00:40] Was reading a letter he had

[00:00:47] You could plainly tell by the look on his face

[00:00:54] That the contents of it made him sad

[00:01:02] The stern old conductor then started his round

[00:01:08] Taking tickets from everyone there

[00:01:15] And finally reaching the side of the boy

[00:01:22] He gruffly demanded his fare

[00:01:29] I have no ticket the boy then replied

[00:01:35] But I'll pay you back someday

[00:01:42] Then I'll put you off at the next stop we make

[00:01:49] But he stopped when he heard the boy say

[00:01:57] Please Mr Conductor

[00:02:03] Don't put me off of this train

[00:02:10] The best friend I have in this world sir

[00:02:17] Is waiting for me in pain

[00:02:25] Expecting to die any moment sir

[00:02:31] And may not live through the day

[00:02:38] I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye

[00:02:46] Before God takes her away

[00:02:53] A girl sitting near was heard to exclaim

[00:03:00] If you put him off it's a shame

[00:03:07] Taking his hand a collection she made

[00:03:13] The boy's way was paid on the train

[00:03:20] I'm obliged to you miss for

[00:03:24] Your kindness to me

[00:03:27] You're welcome she said never fear

[00:03:34] Each time the conductor

[00:03:38] Would pass through the car

[00:03:41] The boy's words would ring in his ear

[00:03:49] Please Mr Conductor

[00:03:55] Don't put me off of this train

[00:04:02] The best friend I have in this world sir

[00:04:09] Is waiting for me in pain

[00:04:17] Expecting to die any moment sir

[00:04:23] And may not live through the day

[00:04:30] I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye

[00:04:38] Before God takes her away
