《The Great Speckle Bird》歌词

[00:00:00] The Great Speckle Bird - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:01] (Oh my darling Clementine)

[00:00:06] She knew that Cody was the man she wanted but she had waited nearly all her life

[00:00:17] Just one more trip to town to tell the boys goodbye

[00:00:23] Then he'd be back to take her for his wife (don't you worry) Clementine

[00:00:34] Cody saddled up and left his darling then rode to town to celebrate his plan

[00:00:45] He told 'em this would be his last carousing

[00:00:50] I'm gonna settle down boys if I can (with my darling) Clementine

[00:01:02] Someone said it must have been past midnight when Cody had to face a jealous man

[00:01:12] Another story goes that no one really knows

[00:01:18] But it seems there was a dancehall girl called Nan (don't you tell) Clementine

[00:01:29] We do know that the shot or two was heard from some back room

[00:01:34] Then there was a silence in the place

[00:01:40] Just one more trip to town but all his chips were down

[00:01:45] They found Cody lyin' on his face (softly callin') Clementine

[00:01:56] So buddies make a monument to lay down at his head

[00:02:02] Sure you hate to leave your pal behind

[00:02:07] Mother help your daughter put her weddin' dress away

[00:02:12] Cause Cody won't be ridin' back this time (to his darling) Clementine
