《S Lazy H》歌词

[00:00:00] S Lazy H - Corb Lund

[00:00:07] Well I was born

[00:00:09] In this valley

[00:00:11] On this ranch I was raised

[00:00:15] I learned to lope

[00:00:17] Rope and dally

[00:00:19] On the S

[00:00:21] Lazy H

[00:00:23] Well the roots

[00:00:25] Of my people

[00:00:27] They run deep on this place

[00:00:31] I am sixth

[00:00:33] Generation

[00:00:36] On the S

[00:00:38] Lazy H

[00:00:42] And when it came

[00:00:44] To the future

[00:00:46] I never gave it a thought

[00:00:50] If there were broncs

[00:00:52] To be broken

[00:00:54] Endless steers

[00:00:56] To be caught

[00:00:58] Well my youth

[00:01:00] It was carefree

[00:01:02] For the work was my play

[00:01:06] And what I loved

[00:01:08] Would always be there

[00:01:10] On the S

[00:01:12] Lazy H

[00:01:16] I had one

[00:01:18] Beloved sister

[00:01:20] A few years younger than me

[00:01:24] Before a sole

[00:01:26] Cowboy had kissed her

[00:01:29] She left for school

[00:01:31] In the east

[00:01:33] Me I might

[00:01:35] Have gone to college

[00:01:37] Might have liked to fly planes

[00:01:41] But my dad

[00:01:43] Needed help to

[00:01:45] Run the S

[00:01:47] Lazy H

[00:01:51] So I worked

[00:01:53] There 'long side him

[00:01:55] Put adult years in this place

[00:01:59] And I gained

[00:02:01] Appreciation

[00:02:04] For the lines

[00:02:06] On his face

[00:02:08] And when mom

[00:02:09] Had grown older

[00:02:11] And when dad passed away

[00:02:16] It fell to me

[00:02:18] To look after

[00:02:20] The S

[00:02:22] Lazy H

[00:02:38] By now my sister

[00:02:40] She had married

[00:02:42] A sharp attorney back east

[00:02:46] We didn't see

[00:02:48] Eye to eye but

[00:02:50] I did my best

[00:02:52] To make peace

[00:02:55] What did they see

[00:02:57] When they looked over

[00:02:59] Over the fence

[00:03:01] One fine day

[00:03:03] They saw a whole

[00:03:05] Lot a value

[00:03:07] In the S

[00:03:09] Lazy H

[00:03:13] So after thought

[00:03:15] And assessment

[00:03:17] The court awarded them half

[00:03:21] And no cow

[00:03:23] Calf operation

[00:03:25] Carries that

[00:03:28] Kind of cash

[00:03:30] Well I worked

[00:03:32] Through the numbers

[00:03:34] Worked them every which way

[00:03:38] Yeah I went

[00:03:40] Through the numbers

[00:03:42] Oh and boys I'm afraid

[00:03:46] I had to sell

[00:03:48] Twenty sections

[00:03:50] Of the S

[00:03:52] Lazy H

[00:03:56] Sometimes right

[00:03:58] Isn't equal

[00:04:00] Sometimes equal's not fair

[00:04:05] There will soon

[00:04:06] Be rows of houses

[00:04:09] On that ridge

[00:04:11] Over there

[00:04:13] Many lifetimes

[00:04:15] Of labour

[00:04:17] Will be all but erased

[00:04:21] So shed a tear

[00:04:23] And look skyward

[00:04:25] God help the S

[00:04:27] Lazy H

[00:04:43] The last few years

[00:04:45] Were a struggle

[00:04:47] But I gave it my best

[00:04:51] And I tried

[00:04:53] To go forward

[00:04:55] On the land

[00:04:57] That was left

[00:04:59] Well I have lived

[00:05:01] With the sorrow

[00:05:03] And I will die with the shame

[00:05:07] For now the bank

[00:05:09] Owns what's left of

[00:05:12] The S

[00:05:14] Lazy H
