《Knoxville Girl》歌词

[00:00:00] Knoxville Girl - The Louvin Brothers

[00:00:09] I met a liitle girl in Knoxville

[00:00:13] A town we all know well

[00:00:17] And every Sunday evening

[00:00:20] Out in her home I'd dwell

[00:00:25] We went to take an evening

[00:00:28] Walk about a mile from town

[00:00:32] I picked a stick up off the ground

[00:00:36] And knocked that fair girl down

[00:00:42] She fell down on her bended

[00:00:45] Knees for mercy she did cry

[00:00:50] Oh Willy dear don't kill me here

[00:00:54] I'm unprepared to die

[00:00:58] She never spoke another word

[00:01:02] I only beat her more

[00:01:06] Until the ground around me

[00:01:10] Within her blood did flow

[00:01:23] I took her by her golden curls

[00:01:27] And I drug her round and around

[00:01:31] Throwing her into the river

[00:01:35] That flows through Knoxville town

[00:01:39] Go down go down you Knoxville

[00:01:42] Girl with the dark and rolling eyes

[00:01:47] Go down go down you Knoxville girl

[00:01:51] You can never be my bride

[00:01:56] I started back to Knoxville

[00:02:00] Got there about midnight

[00:02:04] My Mother she was worried

[00:02:08] And woke up in a fright

[00:02:12] Saying "Dear son what have you done

[00:02:16] To bloody your clothes so "

[00:02:20] I told my anxious Mother

[00:02:24] I was bleeding at my nose

[00:02:37] I called for me a candle

[00:02:41] To light myself to bed

[00:02:45] I called for me a hankerchief

[00:02:49] To bind my aching head

[00:02:53] Rolled and tumbled the whole night throught

[00:02:57] As troubles was for me

[00:03:01] Like flames of hell around my bed

[00:03:05] And in my eyes could see

[00:03:10] They carried me down to Knoxville

[00:03:14] And put me in a cell

[00:03:18] My friends all tried to get me out

[00:03:22] But none could go my bail

[00:03:26] I'm here to waste my life away down

[00:03:31] In this dirty old jail

[00:03:35] Because I murdered that Knoxville girl

[00:03:38] The girl I loved so well
