《Can I Sleep In Your Barn Tonight Mister?》歌词

[00:00:00] Can I Sleep In Your Barn Tonight Mister? - Slim Dusty

[00:00:05] May I sleep in your barn tonight mister

[00:00:10] It's so cold lying out on the ground

[00:00:15] And the cold north winds to the whistling

[00:00:20] And I have no place to lie down

[00:00:25] Now I have no tobacco or matches

[00:00:30] And I'm sure I would 'cause you no harm

[00:00:35] I will tell you my story kind mister

[00:00:40] For it runs through my heart like a storm

[00:00:45] It was three years ago last summer

[00:00:49] I shall never forget that sad day

[00:00:54] When a stranger came out from the city

[00:00:59] And he said that he wanted to stay

[00:01:04] Now this stranger was fair tall and handsome

[00:01:09] And he looked like a man who had wealth

[00:01:14] And he wanted to stay in the country

[00:01:19] Said he wanted to stay for his health

[00:01:24] Then one night as I came from my workshop

[00:01:29] I was whistling and singing with joy

[00:01:33] I expected a kind hearted welcome

[00:01:38] From my sweet loving wife and my boy

[00:01:43] Oh but what did I find but a letter

[00:01:48] It was placed in my room on the stand

[00:01:53] And the moment my eyes fell upon it

[00:01:58] Why I take it right up in my hands

[00:02:03] Now this note said my wife and the stranger

[00:02:07] They had left and have taken my son

[00:02:12] Oh I wonder if god up in heaven

[00:02:17] Only knows what this stranger has done

[00:02:22] May I sleep in your barn tonight mister

[00:02:27] It's so cold lying out on the ground

[00:02:32] And the cold north winds to the whistling

[00:02:36] And I have no place to lie down
