《Down on Penny’s Farm》歌词

[00:00:00] Down on Penny's Farm (到达佩妮的农场) - Jim Kweskin/Geoff Muldaur

[00:00:15] Come you ladies and you gentlemen and listen to my song

[00:00:17] Sing it to you right but you might think it's wrong

[00:00:20] May make you mad but I mean no harm

[00:00:22] It's just about the renters on Penny's farm

[00:00:25] It's hard times in the country

[00:00:27] Out on Penny's farm

[00:00:30] Hasn't George Penny got a flattering mouth

[00:00:32] Move you to the country in a little log house

[00:00:35] Got nothing it but the cracks in the wall

[00:00:37] He'll work you in the summer and rob you in the fall

[00:00:39] It's hard times in the country

[00:00:42] Out on Penny's farm

[00:00:59] You move out on Penny's farm

[00:01:01] Plant a little crop of 'bacco and a little crop of corn

[00:01:04] Come around to see you gonna flit and plot

[00:01:06] Till he gets himself a mortgage

[00:01:07] On everything you got

[00:01:09] It's hard times in the country

[00:01:11] Out on Penny's farm

[00:01:14] You go in the fields and you work all day

[00:01:16] Way after night but you get no pay

[00:01:19] Promise you meat or a little lard

[00:01:21] It's hard to be a renter on Penny's farm

[00:01:23] It's hard times in the country

[00:01:26] Out on Penny's farm

[00:01:43] Where George Penny's renters they'll come into town

[00:01:45] With their hands in their pockets and their head a hanging down

[00:01:48] Go in the store and the merchant will say

[00:01:50] Your mortgage is due and I'm looking for my pay

[00:01:53] It's hard times in the country

[00:01:55] Out on Penny's farm

[00:01:58] Down in his pocket with a trembling hand

[00:02:00] Can't pay you all but I'll pay you what I can

[00:02:03] Then to the telephone the merchant make a call

[00:02:05] Put you on the chain gang don't pay it all

[00:02:07] It's hard times in the country

[00:02:10] Out on Penny's farm

[00:02:27] Where's George Penny he'll come into town

[00:02:29] With his wagon load of peaches not one of them is sound

[00:02:32] He's got to have his money or somebody's check

[00:02:34] You pay him for a bushel and you don't get a peck

[00:02:36] It's hard times in the country

[00:02:39] Out on Penny's farm

[00:02:42] Come you ladies and you gentlemen and listen to my song

[00:02:44] Sing it to you right but you might think it's wrong

[00:02:46] May make you mad but I mean no harm

[00:02:49] It's just about the renters on Penny's farm

[00:02:51] It's hard times in the country

[00:02:54] Out on Penny's farm

[00:03:06] It's hard times in the country

[00:03:08] Out on Penny's farm
