Told My Captain

Told My Captain - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)

Written by：Traditional

Told my captain

My hands were cold

Say damn your hands boy

Let the wheelin' roll

Asked my captain

To give me my time

Dam' old captain

Wouldn't pay me no mind

Raised my hand

To wipe the sweat from my head

Captain got my boy

Shot my buddy dead

Captain walkin' up and down

Buddy's lyin' dam' boy on the burning ground

If you don't believe

My buddy's dead

Just look at the hole

In my buddy's head

Buzzards circling 'round the sky

Hey know my captain surly buddy to die

Surly buddy to die

Surly buddy to die
