[00:00.000] 作曲 : Young
[00:02.58]Look out, Mama,
[00:04.25]there's a white boat comin' up the river
[00:10.54]With a big red beacon,
[00:12.72]and a flag,and a man on the rail
[00:19.18]I think you'd better call John,
[00:21.49]'Cause it don't look like they're here
[00:23.85]to deliver the mail
[00:28.22]And it's less than a mile away
[00:32.85]I hope they didn't come to stay
[00:37.06]It's got numbers on the side
[00:39.29]and a gun
[00:40.50]And it's makin' big waves.
[00:55.33]Daddy's gone,
[00:57.31]my brother's out hunting in the mountains
[01:03.50]Big John's been drinking
[01:05.71]since the river took Emmy-Lou
[01:12.39]So the powers that be
[01:14.67]left me here
[01:16.22]to do the thinkin
[01:21.40]And I just turned twenty-two
[01:25.92]I was wonderin' what to do
[01:30.41]And the closer they got,
[01:32.49]The more those feelings grew.
[02:41.90]Daddy's rifle in my hand
[02:44.89]felt reassurin
[02:50.27]He told me,
[02:50.97]Red means run, son,
[02:53.34]numbers add up to nothin
[02:59.22]But when the first shot
[03:01.03]hit the docks I saw it comin
[03:08.41]Raised my rifle to my eye
[03:12.93]Never stopped to wonder why.
[03:17.42]Then I saw black,
[03:19.78]And my face splashed in the sky.
[04:29.09]Shelter me from the powder and the finger
[04:37.58]Cover me with the thought
[04:40.89]that pulled the trigger
[04:46.73]Think of me
[04:48.68]as one you'd never figured
[04:55.47]Would fade away so young
[05:00.03]With so much left undone
[05:04.73]Remember me to my love,
[05:08.05]I know I'll miss her.
