Long Arm Of The Law - Kenny Rogers (肯尼·罗杰斯)[00:00:00]

In Cumberland Kentucky[00:00:05]

On a cool hot evening[00:00:08]

Billy lay in love with Marrianne[00:00:11]

She was a rich judge's daughter[00:00:16]

He was a son of a miner[00:00:18]

But that night their love was more than they could stand[00:00:21]

The judge said to his daughter[00:00:27]

That son of that coal miner[00:00:29]

Is someone you'll go hell to leave alone[00:00:32]

She knew his dad so well[00:00:37]

She knew she couldn't tell[00:00:40]

But the truth was bound in show before too long[00:00:42]

Their love had started growing on it's own[00:00:48]

You can't out run the long arm of the law[00:00:53]

No you can't out run the long arm of the law[00:00:58]

Billy placed his hand on Mary[00:01:04]

And he felt the baby's moving[00:01:06]

Kissed her and said I'll see you when I can[00:01:09]

The judge had made a promise[00:01:14]

When he caught up with Billy[00:01:17]

He'd sent him far away from Marianne[00:01:20]

The whole town knew he'd do it[00:01:25]

Too many times he'd proved it[00:01:27]

To at least a hundred men behind the wall[00:01:30]

He'd smiled behind that frown[00:01:35]

And when he brought that gavel down[00:01:38]

He called himself the long arm of the law[00:01:41]

And he'd set his mind on seeing Billy fall[00:01:46]

In a hot humid mine shack[00:01:51]

A mid white pulled the sheet back[00:01:54]

And placed cool damp towel on Marianne[00:01:56]

Billy's eyes were wide with wonder[00:02:02]

From the spell he was under[00:02:04]

When she placed the new born baby in his hands[00:02:07]

He didn't hear the siren[00:02:12]

Just a baby's crying[00:02:15]

That miracle of love was all he saw[00:02:17]

When the door came crashing down[00:02:23]

And Billy turned around[00:02:25]

He felt the heart and soul inside him fall[00:02:28]

He stood face to face[00:02:33]

With the long arm of the law[00:02:34]

You can't out run the long arm of the law[00:02:39]

No you can't out run the long arm of the law[00:02:44]

You can hide out for a while[00:02:49]

He says with a smile[00:02:52]

But you can't out run the long arm of the law[00:02:54]

Seemed like everybody down in Cumberland Kentucky[00:03:01]

Came out that day to see poor Billy's trial[00:03:05]

The court was called to order[00:03:11]

There sat the judge's daughter[00:03:13]

She looked so proud[00:03:15]

Holding Billy's child[00:03:17]

When they brought Billy to him[00:03:20]

The judge just look right thru him[00:03:23]

As he held that holy bible in his hand[00:03:26]

And he smiled at his grandson[00:03:31]

Then his eyes cut back to Billy[00:03:33]

And said I think this time[00:03:36]

The law will understand[00:03:37]

Son I sentence you to live with Marianne[00:03:41]

You can't out run the long arm of the law[00:03:48]

No you can't out run the long arm of the law[00:03:53]

He said to Billy with a smile[00:03:59]

I know you hide out for a while[00:04:01]

Ah but you can't out run the long arm of the law[00:04:04]

No you can't out run the long arm of the law[00:04:09]
