《Paradise》歌词

[00:03:11] Paradise - Johnny Cash

[00:03:11] Daddy won't you take me

[00:03:11] Back to Muhlenberg County

[00:03:11] Down by the Green River

[00:03:11] Where Paradise lay

[00:03:11] I'm sorry my son

[00:03:11] But you're too late in asking

[00:03:11] Mister Peabody's coal train

[00:03:11] Done hauled it away

[00:03:11] When I was a child

[00:03:11] My family would travel

[00:03:11] Down to western Kentucky where

[00:03:11] My parents were born

[00:03:11] To a backwards old town

[00:03:11] That I've often remembered

[00:03:11] So many times that my mem'ries are worn

[00:03:11] And sometimes we'd travel right

[00:03:11] Down the Green River

[00:03:11] To the abandoned old prison

[00:03:11] Down by Adrian's Hill

[00:03:11] Where the air smelled like snakes

[00:03:11] And we'd shoot with our pistols

[00:03:11] But empty pop bottles

[00:03:11] Was all we would kill

[00:03:11] So daddy won't you take me

[00:03:11] Back to Muhlenberg County

[00:03:11] Down by the Green

[00:03:11] River where Paradise lay

[00:03:11] I'm sorry my son

[00:03:11] But you're too late in asking

[00:03:11] Mister Peabody's coal

[00:03:11] Train done hauled it away

[00:03:11] And the coal company came

[00:03:11] With the world's largest shovel

[00:03:11] They stripped all the timber

[00:03:11] And tortured the land

[00:03:11] They dug for the coal till the

[00:03:11] Land was forsaken

[00:03:11] Then they wrote it all down

[00:03:11] To the progress of man

[00:03:11] Oh daddy won't you take me

[00:03:11] Back to Muhlenberg County

[00:03:11] Down by the Green River

[00:03:11] Where Paradise lay

[00:03:11] I'm sorry my son

[00:03:11] But you're too late in asking

[00:03:11] Mister Peabody's coal train

[00:03:11] Done hauled it away

[00:03:11] When I die let my ashes float

[00:03:11] Down the Green River

[00:03:11] Let my soul roll on up to

[00:03:11] The Rochester Dam

[00:03:11] I'll be halfway to Heaven

[00:03:11] With Paradise waitin'

[00:03:11] Five miles away from

[00:03:11] Where ever I am

[00:03:11] Oh daddy won't you take me

[00:03:11] Back to Muhlenberg County

[00:03:11] Down by the Green

[00:03:11] River where Paradise lay

[00:03:11] I'm sorry my son

[00:03:11] But you're too late in asking

[00:03:11] Mister Peabody's coal train

[00:03:11] Done hauled it away
