[00:00.000] 作曲 : Young [00:14.041]Look out, Mama, there's a white boat coming up the river [00:22.139]With a big red beacon, and a flag, and a man on the rail [00:30.576]I think you'd better call John [00:33.241]Because it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail [00:39.432]And it's less than a mile away [00:44.029]I hope they didn't come to stay [00:47.974]It's got numbers on the side and a gun [00:51.657]And it's making big waves [01:05.972]Daddy's gone, my brother's out hunting in the mountains [01:14.070]Big John's been drinking since the river took Emmy-Lou [01:22.612]So the powers that be left me here to do the thinking [01:31.311]And I just turned twenty-two [01:35.673]I was wondering what to do [01:40.219]And the closer they got [01:42.517]The more those feelings grew [01:48.996]... [02:48.842]Daddy's rifle in my hand felt reassuring [02:56.757]He told me, Red means run, son, numbers add up to nothing [03:05.665]But when the first shot hit the docks I saw it coming [03:13.920]Raised my rifle to my eye [03:18.596]Never stopped to wonder why [03:23.193]Then I saw black [03:24.970]And my face splashed in the sky [03:31.579]... [04:30.955]Shelter me from the powder and the finger [04:39.549]Cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger [04:47.700]Think of me as one you'd never figured [04:56.033]Would fade away so young [05:01.153]With so much left undone [05:05.567]Remember me to my love [05:08.232]I know I'll miss her [05:16.852]...
