《Paul Revere》歌词

[00:00:00] Paul Revere (保罗里维尔) - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:02] In April of 1775

[00:00:06] This great nation started comin' alive

[00:00:11] Ol' King George didn't like it one bit

[00:00:15] So he proceeded to throw him a royal fit

[00:00:19] He told his generals better get 'em back in line

[00:00:23] Make 'em pay my taxes now America is mine

[00:00:27] Stop that Independence cops before it gets around

[00:00:31] Or it'll gonna be hard to hold them rebels down

[00:00:37] Well the King was talking bout the men like Paul Revere

[00:00:41] And the minute men who held their dream of Independence dear

[00:00:45] They kept their eyes on the British they watched 'em day and night

[00:00:49] They knew very soon they'd get their chance to stand and fight

[00:00:54] Yes they knew that the British would get movin' any hour

[00:00:58] So they arranged a signal in the Northern Church Tower

[00:01:02] Paul was watchin' when the tower showed a light

[00:01:07] And he started on his midnight ride

[00:01:11] He jumped on his horse hoofs started a hummin'

[00:01:15] He screamed out his warning redcoats're comin'

[00:01:19] Better get your guns and your fightin' britches on

[00:01:24] They're comin' and they're eight hundred strong

[00:01:28] Next mornin' at Concord and Lexington town

[00:01:32] The spirit of freedom turned the redcoats around

[00:01:36] When we praise the men who made this mighty nation we have here

[00:01:41] Then let's remember Paul Revere yes let's remember Paul Revere

[00:01:50] I guarantee you somethin' and I wanna tell you all

[00:01:54] That we never would've been here if it hadn't been for Paul

[00:01:59] Yes sir I surely doubt us ever bein' here

[00:02:03] If it hadn't been for that man on that horse named Mr Revere
