《Texas Lullaby》歌词

[00:00:00] Texas Lullaby - The Doobie Brothers

[00:00:12] Sittin' by myself in the summertime

[00:00:14] When the heat is burnin' down

[00:00:17] Watchin' the golden crops in the field

[00:00:20] Just growin' without a sound

[00:00:23] I was a boy raised in the country

[00:00:25] And it's still a part of me

[00:00:28] And you see no matter

[00:00:29] Where I go it's a beautiful memory

[00:00:34] Rise with sun at the break of day

[00:00:40] Lookin' out my window

[00:00:42] It's the same as yesterday

[00:00:45] Sittin' under an old oak tree

[00:00:48] Pickin' my guitar in the shade

[00:00:51] That old tree spreadin' over my head

[00:00:53] Is the closest friend I made

[00:00:56] Just me and some lonely wooden music

[00:00:59] Floatin' through air

[00:01:02] The grass is rustlin' and the birds are singin'

[00:01:05] And my heart don't have a care

[00:01:08] Still another day finds me in the fields

[00:01:13] Sweat is soakin' up my ragged clothes

[00:01:16] But I'd rather work than steal

[00:01:19] Watchin' the sun settle down

[00:01:21] Over open Texas land

[00:01:24] Looking at the cattle

[00:01:26] And the horses runnin' wild as they can

[00:01:30] Life was different in the old days

[00:01:32] You just get a day's work done

[00:01:35] When you were finished workin' in the fields

[00:01:38] There was chores at home to be done

[00:01:41] There was works at home to be done

[00:01:44] There was chores at home to be done

[00:01:52] So I was always hearin' music

[00:01:55] Always wanna play me some

[00:01:57] As a full-time friend or the way to ease

[00:02:00] The end of a woman that swayed me some

[00:02:03] Hearin' those tunes always

[00:02:05] Had a way of soothin' out my soul

[00:02:09] When times got hard and work got slow

[00:02:12] It was music that kept me whole

[00:02:15] Sun beatin' down through the trees

[00:02:20] Gets so hot bring a workin' man to his knees

[00:02:26] Part of my heart part of my soul part of a melody

[00:02:31] Hands are clappin' and people

[00:02:33] Swayin' in simple harmony

[00:02:37] Life was different in the old days

[00:02:39] You just get a day's work done

[00:02:42] When you finished workin' in the fields

[00:02:45] There was chores at home to be done

[00:02:47] There was works at home to be done

[00:02:50] There was chores at home to be done

[00:03:20] Late in the evenin' on the front porch

[00:03:23] When the sun is settin' in the west

[00:03:26] Me and the boys pass around the bottle

[00:03:28] And sing what we like best

[00:03:31] Sing about our wives

[00:03:33] Sing about our children singin' out the Delta blues

[00:03:37] We're simple folks

[00:03:38] And we like it that way got nothin' left to lose

[00:03:42] No

[00:03:43] Watchin' the sun settle down

[00:03:45] Over open Texas land

[00:03:48] Looking at the cattle

[00:03:49] And the horses runnin' wild as they can

[00:03:54] Life was different in the old days

[00:03:56] You just get a day's work done

[00:03:59] When you were finished workin' in the fields

[00:04:01] There was chores at home to be done

[00:04:04] Part of my heart part of my soul part of a melody

[00:04:10] Hands are clappin' and people

[00:04:11] Swayin' sing in harmony

[00:04:15] Life was different in the old days

[00:04:17] You just get a day's work done

[00:04:20] When you finished workin' in the fields

[00:04:23] There was chores at home to be done

[00:04:25] There was works at home to be done

[00:04:28] Sing the Lullaby
