《The Strawberry Roan》歌词

[00:00:00] The Strawberry Roan - Marty Robbins

[00:00:04] I was hanging round town just spending my time

[00:00:09] Out of a job not earning a dime

[00:00:13] A feller steps up and he said I suppose

[00:00:18] You're a bronc fighter from looks of your clothes

[00:00:22] You figures me right I'm a good one I claim

[00:00:26] Do you happen to have any bad ones to tame

[00:00:30] Said He's got one a bad one to buck

[00:00:35] At throwing good riders he's had lots of luck

[00:00:42] I gets all het up and I ask what he pays

[00:00:47] To ride this old nag for a couple of days

[00:00:51] He offered me ten I said I'm your man

[00:00:56] A bronc never lived that I couldn't span

[00:01:00] He said Get your saddle I'll give you a chance

[00:01:04] In his buckboard we hopped and he drives to the ranch

[00:01:08] I stayed still morning and right after chuck

[00:01:13] I stepped out to see if this outlaw can buck

[00:01:21] Down in the horse corral standing alone

[00:01:25] Is an old Caballo a Strawberry Roan

[00:01:29] His legs are all spavined he's got pigeon toes

[00:01:33] Little pig eyes and a big Roman nose

[00:01:38] Little pin ears that touched at the tip

[00:01:42] A big 44 brand was on his left hip

[00:01:46] U-necked and old with a long lower jaw

[00:01:50] I could see with one eye he's a regular outlaw

[00:01:58] I gets the blinds on i'm and it sure is a fright

[00:02:02] Next comes the saddle and I screws it down tight

[00:02:07] Then I steps on i'm and I raises the blinds

[00:02:11] Get outta the way boys he's gonna unwind

[00:02:15] He sure is a frog-walker he heaves a big sigh

[00:02:19] He only lacks wings for to be on the fly

[00:02:24] He turns his old belly right up to the sun

[00:02:28] He sure is a sun-fishing son-of-a-gun

[00:02:35] He's about the worst bucker I've seen on the range

[00:02:40] He'll turn on a Nickel and give you some change

[00:02:44] He hits on all fours and goes up on high

[00:02:48] Leaves me a spinning up there in the sky

[00:02:53] I turns over twice and I comes back to earth

[00:02:57] I lights in a cussing the day of his birth

[00:03:01] I know there are ponies that I cannot ride

[00:03:05] There's some of them left they haven't all died

[00:03:10] I'll bet all my money the man ain't alive

[00:03:14] That'll stay with Old Strawberry

[00:03:16] When he makes his high dive
