[00:00.00] 作词 : Tom T. Hall
[00:01.00] 作曲 : Tom T. Hall
[00:05.64]There were signs beside
[00:07.20]the road like "Jesus Saves"
[00:09.49]
[00:11.40]And "Relieve yourself the fast and gentle way"
[00:15.12]
[00:16.93]I was lookin' for an old man
[00:19.42]who lived way back in these hills
[00:21.83]
[00:22.85]Who just might have a story I could tell
[00:26.61]
[00:28.56]Pretty soon the blacktop disappeared
[00:31.91]
[00:33.68]I felt the car change to a lower gear
[00:37.25]
[00:39.31]I took a drink of liquor
[00:41.41]just to chase away the chill
[00:44.23]
[00:44.84]I was 27 miles from Olive Hill
[00:48.99]
[00:50.59]Ahead I saw the bridge where I turned right
[00:53.96]
[00:56.17]A dirt road led straight up a mountainside
[00:59.86]
[01:01.81]I pulled up to a farmhouse
[01:04.17]I thought I had seen before
[01:06.50]
[01:07.30]An old man and his dog were at the door
[01:11.24]
[01:12.90]They told me this old-timer knew this land
[01:16.53]
[01:18.49]I told him, "Sir, I just don't understand
[01:22.17]
[01:24.36]Why the kids in this state
[01:26.47]just grow up and move away
[01:29.20]
[01:29.92]And leave the land where
[01:31.31]they were born and raised."
[01:33.79]
[01:35.40]He said, "Son, you can't make it on this land
[01:38.77]
[01:40.85]Unless you're happy workin' with your hands
[01:44.68]
[01:46.51]There ain't no kids today
[01:48.57]that wanna stay and work it out
[01:51.29]
[01:52.30]They wanna see the things they hear about."
[01:55.67]
[01:57.71]He said, "I cleared this whole farm off myself
[02:01.18]
[02:03.18]And I'd work it now but time has got my health."
[02:06.77]
[02:08.83]Then starin' out the window restin' in his easy chair
[02:13.51]
[02:14.40]He told me what I'd really come to hear
[02:18.08]
[02:19.80]"You know, son, people used to tell their kids
[02:23.13]
[02:25.50]'Now, I don't want you to
[02:26.73]have to work the way I did.'
[02:28.88]
[02:30.91]They don't and some will tell you that it's a shame
[02:34.35]
[02:36.55]But you have to think before you place the blame."
[02:40.41]
[02:42.16]I guess we must have talked for half a day
[02:45.58]
[02:47.55]'Til I told him that I'd best be on my way
[02:51.41]
[02:53.25]He shook my hand and said,
[02:55.13]"I'm glad I met you, Mr. Hall
[02:58.25]
[02:58.81]But I guess there ain't no song here after all."
[03:03.44]
