《The Caretaker》歌词

[00:00:00] The Caretaker - Johnny Cash

[00:00:00] Written by：Cash

[00:00:00] I live in the cemetery

[00:00:03] Ol' caretaker they call me

[00:00:06] In the wintertime I rake the leaves

[00:00:10] And in the summer I cut the weeds

[00:00:14] When a funeral comes the people cry and pray

[00:00:18] They bury their dead and they all go away

[00:00:22] But through their grief

[00:00:24] I still can see

[00:00:26] Their hate and greed and jealousy

[00:00:30] So here I work and I somehow hide

[00:00:34] From a world that rushes by outside

[00:00:38] And each night when I rest my head

[00:00:42] I'm contented as the peaceful death

[00:00:50] But who's gonna cry when old John dies

[00:00:53] Who's gonna cry when old John dies

[00:00:59] Once I was a young man

[00:01:02] Dashing with the girls

[00:01:06] Now no one wants an old man

[00:01:09] I lost my handsome curls

[00:01:13] But I want to say when my time comes

[00:01:18] Lay me facing the rising sun

[00:01:22] Put me in the corner where I buried my pup

[00:01:25] Tell the preacher to pray then cover me up

[00:01:30] Don't lay flowers where my head should be

[00:01:34] Maybe god let some grow for me

[00:01:38] And all the little children that I love like my own

[00:01:42] Will they be sorry that old john's gone

[00:01:50] Who's gonna cry when old John dies

[00:01:53] Who's gonna cry when old John dies
