《Reverend Mr Black》歌词

[00:00:04] Reverend Mr Black - The Kingston Trio

[00:00:08] He rode easy in the saddle he was tall and lean

[00:00:11] And at first ya thought nothin'

[00:00:12] But a streak of mean

[00:00:13] Make a man look so downright strong

[00:00:15] But one look in his eyes

[00:00:17] And ya knowed ya was wrong

[00:00:19] He was a mountain of a man and I

[00:00:21] Want ya to know

[00:00:22] He could preach hot hell in the freezin' snow

[00:00:25] He carried a bible in a canvas sack

[00:00:28] The folks just called him the reverend Mr black

[00:00:31] He was poor as a beggar but he rode like a king

[00:00:34] And sometimes in the evenin' I could hear him sing

[00:00:38] I got to walk that lonesome valley

[00:00:43] I got to walk it by myself

[00:00:48] For nobody else can walk it for me

[00:00:53] I got to walk it by myself

[00:00:59] If ever I could have thought this man in black

[00:01:02] Was soft had any yellow up his back

[00:01:04] I gave that notion up the day

[00:01:07] A lumberjack came in and a wasn't a prayin'

[00:01:11] Yeah he kicked open the meetin'house door

[00:01:13] And he cussed everybody up and down the floor

[00:01:16] And then when things got quiet in the place

[00:01:18] He walked up and cussed in the preacher's face

[00:01:22] He hit that reverend like the kick of a mule

[00:01:25] And to my way of thinkin' it took a pure fool

[00:01:27] To turn the other cheek to that lumberjack

[00:01:30] But that's what he did the reverend Mr black

[00:01:34] He stood like a rock a man among men

[00:01:36] Then he let that lumberjack hit him again

[00:01:39] And then with a voice as kind as could be

[00:01:41] He cut him down like a big oak tree when he said

[00:01:45] You got to walk that lonesome valley

[00:01:50] You got to walk it by yourself

[00:01:55] For nobody else can walk it for you

[00:02:00] You got to walk it by yourself

[00:02:06] It's been many years since we had to part

[00:02:09] And I guess I learned his ways by heart

[00:02:11] I can still hear his sermons ring

[00:02:14] Down in the valley where he used to sing

[00:02:18] I followed him yes Sir and I don't regret it

[00:02:21] Hope that I'll always be a credit to his memory

[00:02:23] 'Cause I want ya to understand

[00:02:26] The reverend Mr black was my old man

[00:02:29] You got to walk that lonesome valley

[00:02:34] You got to walk it by yourself

[00:02:39] For nobody else can walk it for you

[00:02:44] You got to walk it by yourself

[00:02:49] You got to walk that lonesome valley

[00:02:55] You got to walk it by yourself

[00:02:59] For nobody else can walk it for you

[00:03:05] You got to walk it by yourself
