Sweet Baby James (Instrumental Version)

Sweet Baby James (Instrumental Version) - The Hit Co. (熱歌公司)

There is a young cowboy,

he lives on the range. His horse

and his cattle are his only companions.

He works in the saddle

and he sleeps in the canyons,

waiting for summer,

his pastures to change.

And as the moon rises

he sits by his fire,

thinking about women

and glasses of beer.

And closing his eyes

as the doggies retire,

he sings out a song which is soft

but it's clear

as if maybe someone could hear...

Goodnight you moon light ladies,

rock-a-bye sweet baby James.

Deep greens and blues

are the colors I choose,

won't you let me go down

in my dreams?

And rock-a-bye sweet baby James.

Now the first of December

was covered with snow

and so was the turnpike

from Stockbridge to Boston.

Though the Berkshires seemed dreamlike

on account of that frosting,

with ten miles behind me

and ten thousand more to go.

There's a song that they sing

when they take to the highway,

a song that they sing

when they take to the sea,

a song that they sing

of their home the in sky,

maybe you can believe it

if it helps you to sleep,

but singing works just fine for me.

So, goodnight you moon light ladies,

rock-a-bye sweet baby James.

Deep greens and blues

are the colors I choose,

won't you let me go down in my dreams?

And rock-a-bye sweet baby James.
