《Smiling Bill McCall》歌词

[00:00:00] Smiling Bill Mccall - Johnny Cash

[00:00:05] Well the whole town listened to the radio for the Smiling Bill McCall Show

[00:00:10] Everyone in Nashville was listenin' to Bill

[00:00:15] I don't want to be layin' in bed when they pronounce me dead

[00:00:20] He'd stand and breathe in the microphone with his guitar hangin' to his kneebone

[00:00:25] All the girls just sat and dreamed when Bill began his sing

[00:00:29] I don't want my hat to be hung when my last song is sung

[00:00:34] But he never let fame go to his head this is Smiling Bill McCall he said

[00:00:39] Gonna pick and sing a song or two you all listen till I'm through

[00:00:43] And if you're at the house or in your car tune in this time tomorrow

[00:00:49] To all the boys he was a big hero that'd glue their ears to the radio

[00:00:54] Then talkin' a most unusual drawl imitatin' Bill McCall

[00:00:58] Daddy can I get me a guitar cause I want to be a star

[00:01:03] The girls would say of Bill McCall why I bet he's over six feet tall

[00:01:08] Handsomest man in Nashville they said of Smiling Bill

[00:01:12] He won't be plantin' potato slips when he cashes in his chips

[00:01:18] Then one day Bill didn't make the show didn't even show up for a week or so

[00:01:22] The station's boss said to city hall find Smiling Bill McCall

[00:01:27] It won't be hard to track him down he's got the biggest feet in town

[00:01:32] Well there's a creek that runs through Nashville

[00:01:35] And on the bank they found Smiling Bill

[00:01:37] He's committin' suicide but they grabbed him before he tried

[00:01:42] Turn me loose I want to jump he screamed cause I can't stand that theme

[00:01:46] Let this be my final breath cause I'm scared half to death

[00:01:50] The big brave Smiling Bill McCall is only four feet tall

[00:01:55] I'd rather be in the river dead than to hear 'em laughin' at my bald head
