《The Shifting Whispering Sands》歌词

[00:00:00] The Shifting Whispering Sands - Sheb Wooley

[00:00:11] Oh the sand is softly whispering

[00:00:16] As it slowly moves along

[00:00:19] And for those who stop

[00:00:22] And listen it will sing this mournful song

[00:00:29] Yes it always whispers to me of the days of long ago

[00:00:37] When the settlers and the miners

[00:00:42] Fought the crafty Navajo

[00:00:46] How the cattle roamed

[00:00:49] The valley happy people worked the land

[00:00:55] And now everything is covered

[00:00:59] By the shifting whispering sand

[00:01:03] How the miner left his buckboard

[00:01:07] Went to work his claim that day

[00:01:12] And the burros broke their halters

[00:01:16] When they thought he'd gone to stay

[00:01:20] How they found the aged miner

[00:01:25] Lying dead upon the sand

[00:01:29] And after months they could

[00:01:32] But wonder if he'd died by human hand

[00:01:37] So they dug his grave and laid him on his back

[00:01:43] And crossed his hands

[00:01:46] And his secret still is hidden

[00:01:51] By the shifting whispering sands

[00:01:55] This is what they always whisper to me

[00:01:59] Way out on that quiet desert air

[00:02:04] Of the people and the cattle

[00:02:08] And that miner lying there

[00:02:12] If you want to learn the secret wander

[00:02:17] Through this quiet land

[00:02:21] And I'm sure you'll hear

[00:02:23] The story of the shifting whispering sands

[00:02:35] Shifting whispering sands
