Boomer's Story - Ry Cooder (雷·库德)

Come and gather all around me

Listen to my tale of woe

Got some good advice to give you

Lots of things you oughta know

Take a tip from one who's travelled

And never stopped a-ramblin' 'round

'Cause once you get the roamin' fever

You never want to settle down boy

You never want to settle down

I met a little gal in Frisco

And I asked her to be my wife

Told her I was tired of roamin'

Goin' to settle down for life

Then I heard the whistle blowin'

And I knew it was the Red Ball Train

And I left that gal beside the railroad

And I never saw the gal again boy

I never saw the gal again

Saw the gal again

I never saw the gal again

Left that gal beside the railroad

And I never saw the gal again

Travelled all over the country

I've travelled everywhere

I been on every Branch Line railroad

And I never paid a nickel fare

I been from Maine to Califor'ny

And from Canada to Mexico

I never tried to save no money

And now I got no place to bo boy

Now I got no place to go

Listen to a Boomer's story

Pay attention to what I say

Well I hear another train a-comin'

Guess I'll be on my way

If you wanna do me a favor

When I lay me down and die

Just dig my grave beside the railroad

So I can hear the trains go by boys

So I can hear the trains go by

Hear the trains go

Hear the trains go by

Just dig my grave beside the railroad

So I can hear the trains go by
