《Sailor Boy》歌词

[00:00:00] Sailor Boy - The Carter Family (卡特家族)

[00:00:05] 'Twas on one dark and stormy night

[00:00:09] The snow was on the ground

[00:00:13] The sailor boy was at his post

[00:00:19] His ship was outward bound

[00:00:25] His sweetheart standing by his side

[00:00:29] She mourned a bitter tear

[00:00:33] Though as he pressed her to his side

[00:00:38] He whispered in her ear

[00:00:43] Farewell my own true love

[00:00:47] This parting gives me pain

[00:00:52] And you will be my guiding star

[00:00:57] Till I return again

[00:00:59] (Instrumental break)

[00:01:19] And then I think of you my love

[00:01:23] While storms are raging high

[00:01:28] Then oh sweetheart remember me

[00:01:33] Your faithful sailor boy

[00:01:38] 'Twas sad to say the ship returned

[00:01:42] Without the sailor boy

[00:01:47] For he had died while on the sea

[00:01:52] His flag was held most high

[00:01:57] Farewell my own true love

[00:02:01] This parting gives me pain

[00:02:05] And you will be my guiding star

[00:02:10] Till I return again

[00:02:13] (Instrumental break)

[00:02:32] And as his shipmate steps on shore

[00:02:36] To tell that he was dead

[00:02:40] The letter that he gave to her

[00:02:45] These words it sadly read

[00:02:50] Farewell my own true love

[00:02:54] On earth we'll meet no more

[00:02:58] So may we meet in heaven above

[00:03:03] Where parting is no more
