《My Heart’s Tonight In Texas》歌词

[00:00:00] My Heart's Tonight In Texas - The Carter Family (卡特家族)

[00:00:00] Written by：A. P. Carter

[00:00:04] In the distant state of Texas

[00:00:06] By the silver Rio Grande

[00:00:09] Strolled a couple out one evening

[00:00:12] Was two sweethearts hand in hand

[00:00:15] Was a rich man's pretty daughter

[00:00:18] And the lad she loved so dear

[00:00:20] Though tomorrow they must

[00:00:22] Part for many a year

[00:00:26] My heart's tonight in Texas though

[00:00:28] I'm far across the sea

[00:00:31] The band is playing Dixie

[00:00:34] And there's where I long to be

[00:00:37] Dad says the earl I'll marry

[00:00:39] But although here is my hand

[00:00:42] My heart's tonight in Texas

[00:00:44] By the silver Rio Grande

[00:00:59] To Europe she was going to become a lady grand

[00:01:04] Where her father hopes an earl

[00:01:06] Of course she'll wed

[00:01:09] But she went away next morning

[00:01:12] And her heart was true to Jack

[00:01:14] But a letter came one day and this it read

[00:01:20] My heart's tonight in Texas though

[00:01:22] I'm far across the sea

[00:01:25] The band is playing Dixie and

[00:01:27] There's where I long to be

[00:01:31] Dad says the earl I'll marry

[00:01:33] But although here is my hand

[00:01:36] My heart's tonight in Texas

[00:01:38] By the silver Rio Grande

[00:01:52] At a stately ball in England stood

[00:01:55] The Texas lad one night

[00:01:58] The scenes were all splendid and

[00:02:00] The lights were dazzling bright

[00:02:03] The earl knelt beside her asking her to be his bride

[00:02:08] But her thoughts were by the silver Rio Grande

[00:02:13] My heart's tonight in Texas

[00:02:16] Though I'm far across the sea

[00:02:19] The band is playing Dixie and

[00:02:21] There's where I long to be

[00:02:24] Dad says the earl I'll marry

[00:02:26] But although here is my hand

[00:02:30] My heart's tonight in Texas

[00:02:31] By the silver Rio Grande
