《Abner Brown》歌词

[00:00:01] Abner Brown - Johnny Cash

[00:00:06] Every town has its town bum

[00:00:09] I guess ours had one

[00:00:11] Here's a song about him I remember him fondly

[00:00:14] Well his name was Abner Brown

[00:00:23] I knew an old drunk named Abner Brown

[00:00:29] And nobody knew when he came to town

[00:00:34] But he spread good will to his fellow men

[00:00:40] And they let him sleep in the cotton gin

[00:00:44] He could drink more brew than an army could

[00:00:50] But he had more friends and he did more good

[00:00:56] Than a lot of fine fancy people in our town

[00:01:02] So they tolerated Abner Brown

[00:01:06] And all us kids were on his side

[00:01:11] 'Cause he told us tales till our eyes grew wide

[00:01:16] And he made us feel bout ten feet tall

[00:01:23] 'Cause he had no kids but he claimed us all

[00:01:28] And after school and on weekends

[00:01:33] You could find me down at the cotton gin

[00:01:38] The truest friend that I ever found was

[00:01:45] A good old drunk named Abner Brown

[00:01:50] Abner Brown I wish that I could see you once again

[00:01:55] I believe that you'd stack up with all the mighty men

[00:01:59] I've met and known in all the low

[00:02:02] And higher places that I've been

[00:02:05] Thinking of you picks me up when I'm feeling down

[00:02:11] I thank the Lord for making Abner Brown

[00:02:18] Lord take me back to the cotton land

[00:02:24] To Arkansas take me home again

[00:02:29] Let me be the boy that I once have been

[00:02:35] Let me walk that road to the cotton gin

[00:02:40] He's probably dead many years ago

[00:02:45] And gone the way that old drunks go

[00:02:50] But I'd still like to sit me down

[00:02:56] Talk to my old friend Abner Brown

[00:03:01] Abner Brown I wish that I could see you once again

[00:03:06] I believe that you'd stack up with all the mighty men

[00:03:11] I've met and known in all the low

[00:03:14] And higher places that I've been

[00:03:17] Thinking of you picks me up when I'm feeling down

[00:03:22] I thank the Lord for making Abner Brown

[00:03:28] I thank the Lord for making Abner Brown
