《Maggie Walker Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Maggie Walker Blues - Doc Watson

[00:00:30] My parents raised me tenderly

[00:00:32] They had no child but me

[00:00:36] My mind being placed on rambling

[00:00:38] With them I couldn't agree

[00:00:41] Just leave my aged parents

[00:00:44] And them no more to see

[00:00:47] There was a wealthy gentleman

[00:00:49] Who lived there very near by

[00:00:53] He had a beautiful daughter

[00:00:55] On her I cast an eye

[00:00:58] Was so tall and slender

[00:01:00] So pretty and so fair

[00:01:04] There never was a girl

[00:01:05] In this wide world

[00:01:06] With her I could compare

[00:01:09] I asked her if it differed

[00:01:12] I crossed over the plain

[00:01:15] She said

[00:01:15] It makes no difference

[00:01:17] If you never return again

[00:01:20] We too shook hands and parted

[00:01:22] And I left my girl behind

[00:01:31] I started out in this wide world

[00:01:34] Strange faces for to see

[00:01:37] I met little maggie walker

[00:01:39] Fell in love with me

[00:01:42] Her pockets all lined with greenback

[00:01:45] And her labor I'll grow old

[00:01:48] Now if you'll consent to marry me

[00:01:50] I'll say I'll roam no more

[00:01:53] I traveled out one morning

[00:01:56] To the salt works I were bound

[00:01:59] And when I reached the salt works

[00:02:01] I viewed the city all around

[00:02:05] Work and money were plentiful

[00:02:07] Girls all kind to me

[00:02:10] But only object to my heart

[00:02:12] Was a girl in tennessee

[00:02:21] I traveled out one morning

[00:02:23] Down on the market square

[00:02:26] The mail train being on arrival

[00:02:28] I met the carrier there

[00:02:32] He handed me a letter

[00:02:34] So's I could understand

[00:02:37] That the girl I left in tennessee

[00:02:39] Had married another man

[00:02:42] I drove on a down little further

[00:02:45] And found that it was true

[00:02:48] I turned my horse and buggy around

[00:02:50] But I didn't know what to do

[00:02:53] I turned all around and about there

[00:02:56] Bad company I'll resign

[00:02:59] I'll drive all about from town to town

[00:03:01] For the girl I left behind
