《California Cotton Fields(2003 Remaster)》歌词

[00:00:00] California Cotton Fields (Remastered LP Version) - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)

[00:00:04] My driftin' memory goes back

[00:00:07] To the spring of '43

[00:00:09] When I was just a child in

[00:00:11] Momma's arms

[00:00:14] My daddy plowed the ground

[00:00:16] And prayed someday he could leave

[00:00:19] This run-down

[00:00:19] Mortgaged Oklahoma farm

[00:00:23] And then one night

[00:00:25] I heard my daddy sayin' to my momma

[00:00:28] That he'd finally saved enough to go

[00:00:33] California was his dream

[00:00:35] A paradise for he had seen

[00:00:38] Pictures in magazines that told him so

[00:00:43] California cottonfields

[00:00:47] Where labor camps were filled

[00:00:49] With worried men with broken dreams

[00:00:52] California cottonfields

[00:00:56] As close to wealth as daddy ever came

[00:01:22] Almost everything

[00:01:23] We had was sold or left behind

[00:01:26] From my daddy's plow

[00:01:27] To the fruit that momma canned

[00:01:31] Some folks came to say farewell

[00:01:33] Or see what all we had to sell

[00:01:36] Some just came to shake my daddy's hand

[00:01:40] That model a was loaded down

[00:01:42] And California bound

[00:01:45] And a change of luck

[00:01:46] Was just four days away

[00:01:50] But the only change that

[00:01:51] I remember seein' for my daddy

[00:01:54] Was when

[00:01:55] His dark hair turned to silver gray

[00:02:00] California cottonfields

[00:02:03] Where labor camps were filled

[00:02:05] With worried men with broken dreams

[00:02:09] California cottonfields

[00:02:13] As close to wealth as daddy ever came

[00:02:17] California cottonfields

[00:02:22] Where labor camps were filled

[00:02:24] With worried men with broken dreams

[00:02:27] California cottonfields

[00:02:31] As close to wealth as daddy ever came
