《Austin Prison》歌词

[00:00:01] Austin Prison - Johnny Cash

[00:00:07] They had a warrant out for me all over the country

[00:00:12] And I was trying to beat the raps in Idaho

[00:00:17] I was breaking into a schoolhouse

[00:00:20] Sunday morning without warning

[00:00:22] When I saw the sheriff coming for me

[00:00:25] Slow from down below

[00:00:28] His steel grey eyes were blazing when he saw me

[00:00:33] His hand was on his gun when he rode up

[00:00:38] He said you killed that woman

[00:00:41] I know you shot her why'd you do it

[00:00:43] I'm taking you to Austin

[00:00:45] Then I'm gonna lock you up

[00:00:49] Well he tied me with a plow line the next morning

[00:00:54] And he had me deep in Texas the next day

[00:00:59] A crazy screaming lynch mob

[00:01:02] Waited in the streets of Austin

[00:01:04] But he put me in the jailhouse and he threw the key away

[00:01:16] A jury found me guilty three months

[00:01:21] Later twelve evil men with murder in their eyes

[00:01:27] They even took me out and said

[00:01:29] Now show us where you killed her

[00:01:31] And that wicked judge said now

[00:01:33] I here by sentence you to die

[00:01:37] But here I am far away from Austin prison

[00:01:42] My friend the jailer handed me a file

[00:01:47] Now all I want between me and

[00:01:49] There are a lot of friendly people

[00:01:52] And miles and miles and miles and

[00:01:54] Miles and miles and miles and miles
