《The Story of the Lawson Family》歌词

[00:00:00] The Story Of The Lawson Family - The Stanley Brothers

[00:00:05] It was on one Christmas evening

[00:00:09] The snow was on the ground

[00:00:13] At his home in North Carolina

[00:00:18] The murderer he was found

[00:00:23] His name was Charlie Lawson

[00:00:27] And he had a loving wife

[00:00:31] But they never knew what caused him

[00:00:35] To take his family's life

[00:00:40] They say he killed his wife at first

[00:00:44] And the little one did cry

[00:00:48] Please papa won't you spare us

[00:00:52] How it is so hard to die

[00:01:13] But the raging man could not be stopped

[00:01:17] He would not heed their call

[00:01:22] He kept on firing fatal shots

[00:01:26] Until he killed them all

[00:01:31] They did not carry him to jail

[00:01:35] No lawyers would be paid

[00:01:39] They'll have his trial in another land

[00:01:43] On the final judgement day

[00:01:48] They all were buried in a crowded grave

[00:01:52] While the angels watched from above

[00:01:56] Come home come home my little ones

[00:02:00] To the land of peace and lord

[00:02:05] And now farewell come friends and home

[00:02:09] I'll see you here no more

[00:02:13] But when we meet in another land

[00:02:17] Our troubles will be all
