《Utah Carol》歌词

[00:00:00] Utah Carol - Marty Robbins

[00:00:05] And now my friends you've

[00:00:07] Asked me what makes me sad and still

[00:00:11] And why my brow is darkened

[00:00:14] Like the clouds upon the hill

[00:00:17] Run in your ponies closer

[00:00:20] And I'll tell to you my tale

[00:00:22] Of Utah Carol my partner

[00:00:25] And his last ride on the trail

[00:00:28] We rode the range together

[00:00:31] And rode it side by side

[00:00:34] I loved him like a brother

[00:00:37] And I wept when Utah died

[00:00:40] We were rounding up one morning

[00:00:42] When work was almost done

[00:00:46] When on his side the cattle

[00:00:48] Started on a frightened run

[00:00:51] Underneath the saddle

[00:00:54] That the boss's daughter rode

[00:00:56] Utah that very morning

[00:00:59] Had placed a bright red robe

[00:01:02] So the saddle might ride easy

[00:01:05] For Lenore his little friend

[00:01:08] And it was this red blanket

[00:01:11] That brought him to his end

[00:01:14] The blanket was now dragging

[00:01:16] Behind her on the ground

[00:01:19] The frightened cattle saw it

[00:01:22] And charged it with a bound

[00:01:25] Lenore then saw her danger

[00:01:28] And turned her pony's face

[00:01:31] And leaning in the saddle

[00:01:33] Tied the blanket to its place

[00:01:36] But in leaning lost her balance

[00:01:39] Fell in front of that wild tide

[00:01:42] "Lay still Lenore I'm coming"

[00:01:45] Were the words that Utah cried

[00:01:48] His faithful pony saw her

[00:01:50] And reached her with a bound

[00:01:53] I thought he'd been successful

[00:01:56] And raised her from the ground

[00:01:59] But the weight upon the saddle

[00:02:02] Had not been felt before

[00:02:05] His backcinch snapped like thunder

[00:02:07] And he fell by Lenore

[00:02:11] Picking up the blanket

[00:02:13] He swung it over his head

[00:02:16] And started cross the prairie

[00:02:19] "Lay still Lenore" he said

[00:02:22] When he got the stampede turned

[00:02:24] And saved Lenore his friend

[00:02:27] He turned to face the cattle

[00:02:30] And meet his fatal end

[00:02:33] His six gun flashed like lightning

[00:02:36] The report rang loud and clear

[00:02:38] As the cattle rushed and killed him

[00:02:41] He dropped the leading steer

[00:02:45] On his funeral morning

[00:02:47] I heard the preacher say

[00:02:50] I hope we'll all meet Utah

[00:02:52] At the roundup far away

[00:02:55] Then they wrapped him in a blanket

[00:02:58] That saved his little friend

[00:03:01] And it was this red blanket

[00:03:04] That brought him to his end
