Mighty Everglades

Mighty Everglades - Jim Reeves (吉姆·裡夫斯)

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
