《Jeannie’s Afraid of the Dark》歌词

[00:00:00] Jeannie's Afraid of the Dark - Dolly Parton

[00:00:11] Her two little feet would come running into

[00:00:16] Our bedroom almost every night

[00:00:21] Her soft little face would be wet from her tears

[00:00:26] And her little heart pounding with fright

[00:00:31] She'd hold out her arms

[00:00:34] Then she'd climb in beside us

[00:00:37] In her small voice

[00:00:38] We'd hear her remark

[00:00:42] Mommie and Daddy can

[00:00:44] I sleep here with you

[00:00:47] 'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

[00:00:52] One day in the summer we took some flowers

[00:00:57] To place on some old family graves

[00:01:02] Jeannie said

[00:01:04] Mommy ain't it dark in the ground

[00:01:07] Oh Daddy I'd be so afraid

[00:01:13] Then she looked up at her daddy and me

[00:01:17] And said somethin' that broke both our hearts

[00:01:23] She said

[00:01:24] When I die please don't bury me

[00:01:28] 'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

[00:01:40] Jeannie was always afraid of the dark

[00:01:43] And we never could understand why

[00:01:47] 'Cause we looked after

[00:01:48] Jeannie with the very best of care

[00:01:52] Because Jeannie was our only child

[00:01:57] Perhaps it was death that she was so afraid of

[00:02:02] 'Cause it took her one dark stormy night

[00:02:07] I think we always knew

[00:02:09] That we'd never see Jeannie grown

[00:02:12] 'Cause it seemed she was destined to die

[00:02:18] But on Jeannie's grave

[00:02:19] We placed an eternal flame

[00:02:22] That glows and never loses its spark

[00:02:27] And on the darkest night

[00:02:29] There's always a light

[00:02:32] 'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

[00:02:37] Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark
