《My Brother’s Will》歌词

[00:00:01] My Brother's Will - The Louvin Brothers

[00:00:03] Written by：Ken Nelson

[00:00:05] My brother and I were out hunting

[00:00:10] A stray bullet made him its mark

[00:00:14] I carried him back to the cabin

[00:00:18] His life nothing more than a spark

[00:00:22] He whispered to me very softly

[00:00:27] Dear brother I'm going away

[00:00:31] So listen and come to me closely

[00:00:35] There's so much that I have to say

[00:00:40] My sweetheart her dear name is Sally

[00:00:44] Her mother and father have died

[00:00:48] She's waiting alone in the valley

[00:00:53] When I left her oh how she cried

[00:00:57] I promised to bring her my fortune

[00:01:01] Return to the valley and wed

[00:01:06] But I've had a call from my maker

[00:01:10] So I'll have to go there instead

[00:01:19] He gave me the ring he had bought her

[00:01:23] And told of the plans they had made

[00:01:27] He spoke of how long she had waited

[00:01:32] And for his return how she prayed

[00:01:36] He gave me a small piece of paper

[00:01:41] The will he had made for this day

[00:01:45] I promised to do as he wanted

[00:01:49] The good lord would show me the way

[00:01:54] He gave me his home in the valley

[00:01:58] And all of the money he had

[00:02:03] He asked me to marry his Sally

[00:02:07] And promise she'd never be sad

[00:02:12] But once long ago we were rivals

[00:02:16] For I loved her too from the start

[00:02:20] I'd made up my mind to stay single

[00:02:25] For Sally had broken my heart

[00:02:35] My dear brother went up to heaven

[00:02:39] And I went to our valley home

[00:02:43] But Sally had married another

[00:02:48] So what's left for me but to roam

[00:02:52] I pray the good lord up above me

[00:02:57] To keep brother's faith in me still

[00:03:01] His Sally was fickle unfaithful

[00:03:05] That's why I broke my brother's will
