作词 : John Ronald Cash 作曲 : John Ronald Cash I gave my woman half my money at the general store, I said, "Now buy a little groceries and don't spend no more." But she paid ten dollars for a ten cent hat, And bought some store-bought cat food for that mean-eyed cat.
When I give her ten more dollars for a one way ticket She was mad as she could be Then I bet ten more that if she ever left She'd come a-crawlin' back to me
When I woke up this mornin' and I turned my head There wasn't a cotton pickin' thing on her side of the bed I found a little note where her head belonged It said, "Dear John, honey, baby, I'm long gone."
When I heard a whistle blowin', and the big wheels a-turnin' I was scared as I could be I put on my overalls and I headed to town I'm gonna bring her back with me.
I asked the man down at the station if he'd seen her there I told him all about her pretty eyes and long, blonde hair He spit his tobacco, said, "I'll be dad blamed, I believe I did see her leavin' on the east bound train."
I bought a round trip ticket on the east bound train I was broke as I could be But when I come back, gotta buy another ticket Gotta bring her back with me.
