《Blackie， Kentucky》歌词

[00:00:00] Blackie, Kentucky - Dolly Parton (多莉·帕顿)

[00:00:05] In my home town of Blackie Kentucky

[00:00:09] He came passin' through one dark gloomy day

[00:00:15] And I considered myself as lucky

[00:00:20] When he told me he would take me away

[00:00:25] And though he was older

[00:00:28] It made me no difference

[00:00:30] His promise of riches was all I could see

[00:00:36] At last I could leave the coal mines of Kentucky

[00:00:41] And know something better than sad poverty

[00:00:47] Blackie Kentucky you know that I'll miss you

[00:00:52] But there are other places in the world I'd like to see

[00:00:58] So I must take this chance to be somethin' more than nothin'

[00:01:03] But I'll always hold you in my memory

[00:01:07] But I've never adjusted to sociable livin'

[00:01:12] The friends that he knows

[00:01:15] They're all strangers to me

[00:01:19] Thousands of miles from Blackie Kentucky

[00:01:23] In a mansion with a husband that never loved me

[00:01:29] He won't let my family and friends come to visit

[00:01:34] Because they are country and poor he's ashamed

[00:01:40] Oh but I'd give my life Lord

[00:01:43] If I could just go see them

[00:01:45] All that's changed about me is my name

[00:01:50] Blackie Kentucky oh Lord

[00:01:53] How I miss you

[00:01:55] If I could come back home

[00:01:57] I'd never leave you anymore

[00:02:01] I'd like to see my poor hardworking coal-minin' Daddy

[00:02:06] And Mama and the kids

[00:02:08] And the friends I knew before

[00:02:12] My world is as black as the coal in Kentucky

[00:02:17] He won't let me leave him - there's no way to win

[00:02:23] I'll take my own life dear God please forgive me

[00:02:27] But I've got to get back home to Blackie once again

[00:02:34] An' I've left him a note

[00:02:36] In the mornin' he'll find it

[00:02:38] It's my last request and he can't refuse me

[00:02:45] I've told him to bury me back in Blackie Kentucky

[00:02:49] Where my family and my friends can come and visit me

[00:02:55] Blackie Kentucky I'm comin' home to you

[00:02:59] But different from the way you remember me before

[00:03:05] So make me a place and I'll lay me down to rest

[00:03:10] And I'll sleep in your arms forevermore

[00:03:15] I'll sleep in your arms forever more
