On the Grand Canyon Line 歌词
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
