《Maria Sugarcane》歌词

[00:00:00] Maria Sugarcane - Brian Wright

[00:00:13] In the south end of the county

[00:00:16] Near the highway and the trains

[00:00:19] There's a river long since dried

[00:00:21] A river just the same

[00:00:24] When I was just a boy

[00:00:27] I would the lie there on it's banks

[00:00:29] With my brother and the summer

[00:00:32] And Maria Sugarcane

[00:00:39] And my brother was born shaky

[00:00:42] And he wore our father's rage

[00:00:44] And he stumbled through the autumn

[00:00:47] Underneath the winter's weight

[00:00:50] And he rode a motorcycle

[00:00:52] That he'd drive down to the banks

[00:00:55] Of the river in the summer

[00:00:58] With Maria Sugarcane

[00:01:05] And how they loved each other

[00:01:07] And that love was wild as hope

[00:01:10] And none would come between

[00:01:13] My father's wandering ghost

[00:01:15] And I had seen him beat her

[00:01:18] Time and time before

[00:01:21] But as I loved my brother

[00:01:24] I loved Maria so much more

[00:01:32] I loved her young and pretty

[00:01:34] And I loved her wild and strong

[00:01:37] And I'd never loved another

[00:01:40] I'd loved her for so long

[00:01:43] And never would I hurt her

[00:01:45] Never see her meet with harm

[00:01:48] When I told her how I'd found him

[00:01:51] She fell into my arms

[00:01:57] Told her how I'd found him

[00:02:00] Down there by the river banks

[00:02:03] That the angels were around him

[00:02:05] But that I was just too late

[00:02:08] And they carried him off to heaven

[00:02:11] My father's sins and all

[00:02:14] But I did not hear the shot

[00:02:17] And I did not see him fall

[00:02:23] And Maria loved my brother

[00:02:26] With her purest bluest eyes

[00:02:29] And he carried it in paper

[00:02:32] And it never left his side

[00:02:34] And I married her two summers past

[00:02:37] The year my brother died

[00:02:40] And though sometimes I hear her

[00:02:43] I've never seen her cry

[00:02:50] And I know Maria loves me

[00:02:52] But it just ain't the same

[00:02:55] As the way she loved my brother

[00:02:57] In those summers on the banks

[00:03:00] Of the river long since dried up

[00:03:03] Maria Sugarcane

[00:03:06] In the south end of the county

[00:03:08] Near the highway and the trains

[00:03:15] In the south end of the county

[00:03:18] Near the highway and the trains

[00:03:21] There's a river long since dried up

[00:03:23] But a river just the same

[00:03:26] And that's where I found my brother

[00:03:29] And Maria's one true love

[00:03:32] I knew that I would kill him

[00:03:34] And Maria she would come

[00:04:05] In the corner of the graveyard

[00:04:07] Near the spot my brother lays

[00:04:10] Far past the noble families

[00:04:13] Two more plots are saved

[00:04:16] When I and fair Maria

[00:04:19] Seen our final days

[00:04:22] May they bury her between us

[00:04:24] Maria Sugarcane
