《The Carpet on the Floor》歌词

[00:00:00] The Carpet on the Floor - Stonewall Jackson

[00:00:01] Written by：Vic McAlpin

[00:00:08] There's a path that is wore

[00:00:12] In the carpet on the floor

[00:00:16] By the window where

[00:00:18] I watch and wait for you

[00:00:24] I'm a prisoner alone in a cell that

[00:00:29] Once was home

[00:00:32] And there's no one to talk to but the blues

[00:00:40] Oh the carpet on the floor

[00:00:44] It's tattered and tore

[00:00:48] And tears I've cried enough to flood the sea

[00:00:55] Things that's loved the most by man

[00:00:59] Are tossed about like a grain of sand

[00:01:04] And lost just like the love you had for me

[00:01:19] Till I'm too feeble to walk

[00:01:24] Till I grow too weak to talk

[00:01:28] Till my eyes grow dim and

[00:01:30] I no longer see

[00:01:35] I'll still walk along alone

[00:01:39] Prayin' for you to come home

[00:01:44] Till the last breath of life has gone from me

[00:01:51] Oh the carpet on the floor

[00:01:56] It's raggered and wore

[00:02:00] And tears I've cried enough to flood the sea

[00:02:07] Things that's loved the most by man

[00:02:11] Are tossed about like a grain of sand

[00:02:16] And lost just like the love you had for me
