《Comin’ After Jinny》歌词

[00:00:00] Comin' After Jinny - Burl Ives (布勒·埃夫斯)

[00:00:09] He'll be comin' down the road at the break of day

[00:00:13] His head thrown back and his guns tied low

[00:00:18] He's comin' after Jinny wants to take her away

[00:00:22] But I ain't gonna let her go

[00:00:27] Oh he boasted in town but she loved him

[00:00:31] He said she'd be his with the sun

[00:00:35] He said anyone try to stop him would be

[00:00:40] Just one more notch on his gun

[00:00:44] They say that he's headstrong

[00:00:46] And handsome his hair's blowin' wild and free

[00:00:52] And they got a hold I ain't comin'

[00:00:57] Cause he's a lot younger than me

[00:01:01] He'll be comin' down the road at the break of day

[00:01:05] His head thrown back and his guns tied low

[00:01:09] He's comin' after Jinny wants to take her away

[00:01:13] But I ain't gonna let her go

[00:01:18] He hasn't had much education

[00:01:22] He ain't worked a day in his life

[00:01:26] He's livin' with some older woman

[00:01:30] They say she's another man's wife

[00:01:35] But she wants him needs him

[00:01:37] And loves him she buys him his clothes

[00:01:41] And his meals

[00:01:43] When she finds he's gone she'll be prayin'

[00:01:48] And Lord I know just how she feels

[00:01:52] He'll be comin' down the road at the break of day

[00:01:56] His head thrown back and his guns tied low

[00:02:00] He's comin' after Jinny wants to take her away

[00:02:05] But I ain't gonna let her go

[00:02:09] The sun's at his back as he's comin'

[00:02:13] The smile is curlin' his lip

[00:02:17] His right hand is slowly descendin' to

[00:02:22] The sixgun that rest on his hip

[00:02:27] Then his lower lip strated tremble

[00:02:30] He was cryin' as he looked up at me

[00:02:34] And I picked him up I said son

[00:02:37] You're only four years old

[00:02:39] And you know Jinny's only three

[00:02:43] So come on inside the house

[00:02:45] And have some cookies and milk

[00:02:48] And we did and the tears turned to smiles

[00:02:52] And I called up his mama I drove him home

[00:02:56] And Jinny's safe at least for a little while
