《Tecumseh Valley》歌词

[00:00:02] Steve Earle

[00:00:06] The name she gave was Caroline

[00:00:15] The daughter of a miner

[00:00:19] And her ways were free and it seemed to me

[00:00:27] The sunshine walked beside her

[00:00:38] Come She from Spencer 'coss the hill

[00:00:47] She said her Pa had sent her

[00:00:52] 'Cause the coal was low and soon the snow

[00:01:00] Would tuwn the skies to winter

[00:01:10] Well she she'd said come to look for work

[00:01:19] She was not seeking favors

[00:01:24] For a dime a day and a place to stay

[00:01:32] She'd turn those hands to labor

[00:01:42] The times were hard the jobs were few

[00:01:51] All through Tecumseh Valley

[00:01:56] But she asked around and a job she found

[00:02:04] Tending bar for Gypsy Sally

[00:02:47] She saved enough to get back home

[00:02:55] Spring When replaced the winter

[00:03:00] But her dreams were denied her Pa had died

[00:03:08] The word came down from Spencer

[00:03:19] She turned to whorin' out on the streets

[00:03:27] With all the lust inside her

[00:03:32] It was many a man returned again

[00:03:40] To lay himself beside her

[00:03:50] They Well found her down beneath the stairs

[00:03:59] That led to Gypsy Sally's

[00:04:03] In her hand when she died

[00:04:07] Was a note that cried

[00:04:11] Fare thee well Tecumseh Valley
