《Ballad Of The Alamo》歌词

[00:00:00] Ballad of the Alamo - Marty Robbins

[00:00:02] Written by：Paul Francis Webster/Dimitri Tiomkin

[00:00:04] In the southern part of Texas

[00:00:07] In the town of San Antone

[00:00:09] There's a fortress all in ruins that the weeds have overgrown

[00:00:14] You may look in vain for crosses and you'll never see a

[00:00:18] One

[00:00:19] But sometimes between the setting and the rising of the sun

[00:00:24] You can hear a ghostly bugle

[00:00:26] As the men go marching by

[00:00:28] You can hear them as they answer

[00:00:30] To that roll call in the sky

[00:00:34] Colonel Travis Davy Crockett

[00:00:36] And a hundred eighty more

[00:00:39] Captain Dickinson Jim Bowie

[00:00:41] Present and accounted for

[00:00:44] Back in 1836

[00:00:46] Houston said to Travis

[00:00:49] Get some volunteers and go

[00:00:51] Fortify the Alamo

[00:00:53] Well the men came from Texas

[00:00:55] And from old Tennessee

[00:00:57] And they joined up with Travis

[00:01:00] Just to fight for the right to be free

[00:01:03] Indian scouts with squirrel guns

[00:01:06] Men with muzzle loaders

[00:01:08] Stood together heel and toe

[00:01:10] To defend the Alamo

[00:01:12] You may ne'er see your loved ones

[00:01:14] Travis told them that day

[00:01:16] Those who want to can leave now

[00:01:19] Those who fight to the death let 'em stay

[00:01:22] In the sand he drew a line

[00:01:25] With his army sabre

[00:01:27] Out of a hundred eighty five

[00:01:29] Not a soldier crossed the line

[00:01:31] With his banners a dancin'

[00:01:33] In the dawn's golden light

[00:01:36] Santa Anna came prancing

[00:01:38] On a horse that was black as the night

[00:01:41] Sent an officer to the tell

[00:01:44] Travis to surrender

[00:01:46] Travis answered with a shell

[00:01:49] And a rousing rebel yell

[00:01:50] Santa Anna turned scarlet

[00:01:53] Play deguello he roared

[00:01:55] I will show them no quarter

[00:01:57] Every one will be put to the sword

[00:02:01] One hundred and eighty five

[00:02:03] Holding back five thousand

[00:02:05] Five days six days eight days ten

[00:02:08] Travis held and held again

[00:02:09] Then he sent for replacements

[00:02:12] For his wounded and lame

[00:02:14] But the troops that were coming

[00:02:16] Never came never came never came

[00:02:20] Twice he charged and blew recall

[00:02:22] On the fatal third time

[00:02:24] Santa Anna breached the wall

[00:02:27] And he killed them one and all

[00:02:29] Now the bugles are silent

[00:02:31] And there's rust on each sword

[00:02:33] And the small band of soldiers

[00:02:36] Lie asleep in the arms of the Lord

[00:02:49] In the southern part of Texas

[00:02:52] Near the town of San Antone

[00:02:54] Like a statue on his pinto rides a cowboy all alone

[00:03:00] And he sees the cattle grazing where a century before

[00:03:04] Santa Anna's guns were blazing and the cannons used to roar

[00:03:09] And his eyes turn sorta misty

[00:03:11] And his heart begins to glow

[00:03:13] And he takes his hat off slowly

[00:03:17] To the men of Alamo

[00:03:22] To the thirteen days of glory

[00:03:28] At the siege of Alamo
