《Tecumseh Valley》歌词

[00:00:08] Well

[00:00:08] The name she gave was Caroline

[00:00:12] The daughter of a miner

[00:00:23] An' her ways were free

[00:00:27] An' it seemed to me

[00:00:32] That sunshine walked beside her

[00:00:45] She comes from Spencer

[00:00:48] Across the hill

[00:00:54] She said her pa had sent her

[00:01:00] 'Cause the coal was low and soon the snow

[00:01:11] Would turn the skies to winter

[00:01:15] Well

[00:01:21] She said

[00:01:25] She'd come to look for work

[00:01:30] She was not seekin' favors

[00:01:36] For a dime a day and a place to stay

[00:01:47] She'd turn those hands to labor

[00:01:58] The times were hard

[00:02:00] Lord and the jobs were few

[00:02:06] All through Tecumseh valley

[00:02:13] But she asked around till a job she found

[00:02:22] Tending bar at Gypsy Sally's

[00:02:27] Well

[00:02:34] She saved enough to get back home

[00:02:43] When spring replaced the winter

[00:02:48] But her dreams were denied

[00:02:52] Her pa had died

[00:02:56] Well

[00:02:58] The word come down from Spencer

[00:03:10] So she turned to whorin' out on the streets

[00:03:18] With all the lust inside her

[00:03:24] And it was many a man

[00:03:28] Returned again

[00:03:34] To lay himself beside her

[00:03:45] Well

[00:03:46] They found her down beneath the stairs

[00:03:55] That led to Gypsy Sally's

[00:04:00] And in her hand when she died was a note that cried

[00:04:09] 'Fare Thee Well

[00:04:12] Tecumseh Valley'

[00:04:21] Well

[00:04:21] The name she gave was Caroline

[00:04:30] The daughter of a miner

[00:04:36] An' her ways were free

[00:04:40] An' it seemed to me

[00:04:45] That sunshine walked beside her
