On the Grand Canyon Line Lyrics

On the Grand Canyon Line - Burl Ives (伯尔·艾夫斯)

Written by:US traditional

On the Grand Canyon Line I was riding along

 

On the Grand Canyon Line I was singing no song

 

On the Grand Canyon Line I was riding along

 

Couldn't go back to Texas 'cause I know I've done wrong

 

I passed by the bank for no money I had

 

It wasn't that I really had meant to be bad

 

But I robbed the State Bank with a trembling hand

 

With pistol the money and the through the big doors I ran

On the Grand Canyon Line I was riding along

 

On the Grand Canyon Line I was singing no song

 

On the Grand Canyon Line I was riding along

 

Couldn't go back to Texas 'cause I know I've done wrong

 

Sitting alone in a boxcar's four walls

 

Because I've been breaking the rich man's laws

 

I thought of my sweetheart and began to cry

 

When I am caught by my neck I will die

 

On the Grand Canyon Line I was riding along

 

On the Grand Canyon Line I was singing no song

 

On the Grand Canyon Line I was riding along

 

Couldn't go back to Texas 'cause I know I've done wrong

 

The boxcar door opened and the pussies walked in

The Sheriff said grab him boys I think that is him

 

They took me to the jailhouse and now I must die

 

Five hours to live boys how the time it can fly

On the Grand Canyon Line I was riding along

On the Grand Canyon Line I was singing no song

On the Grand Canyon Line I was riding along

 

 

Couldn't go back to Texas 'cause I know I've done wrong
