Danny Boy - Jim Reeves (吉姆·裏夫斯)

Written by：Karl Davis

South from Okeechobee and reachin' to the keys

Lays the mighty wonder nature made

A hundred miles of jade the mighty everglades

It's beautiful at sunset but

Oh there's something else

That makes bravest heart afraid

A word of things acrawling and athumping

And abawling and awadin' in the everglades

Creeping seeping I heard a million things a weeping

As I gazed into the weirdness of the mighty everglades

Over and over

I called oh please come back my lover

But my love is dead or wand'ring

In the fearful everglades

Voices calling shadows falling spirits of those

Who ventured in and stayed

Hear it fear it never never go too near it

For there's myst'ry

In the hist'ry of the mighty everglades

Seeping crawling spirits calling sliddin' hidin'

My love in the everglades

Over and over I call but now she's gone for ever

And my heart is wand'ring with her

Through the mighty everglades

A word of things acrawling and athumping

And abawling and awadin' in the everglades
