The Broken Down Tramp - The Carter Family (卡特家族)[00:00:00]

I'm a broken down tramp without money[00:00:03]

My clothes are all tattered and torn[00:00:08]

And I am so sad and so lonely[00:00:13]

I wish I had never been born[00:00:17]

All through this wide world I have wandered[00:00:23]

Inquiring for something to do[00:00:28]

But whenever I ask for a job of work[00:00:32]

They say they have none for a tramp[00:00:37]

Now drink was the cause of my downfall[00:00:51]

And the money I had I've outrun[00:00:56]

And the friends that were mine when I had it[00:01:00]

Now pass by and call me a bum[00:01:05]

Now don't be too hasty to judge me[00:01:11]

As I drift along with the tide[00:01:16]

My clothes may be ragged and dirty[00:01:20]

But a clean heart is beating inside[00:01:25]

One night on a dark lonely railroad[00:01:38]

A hobo all hungry and cold[00:01:43]

Saw an empty boxcar on the siding[00:01:48]

He climbed in and closed up the door[00:01:52]

Six months he had rode on the railway[00:01:58]

When the brakeman came 'round with his light[00:02:03]

He was shoved from the car[00:02:07]

And was killed by the train[00:02:09]

Because he was only a tramp[00:02:12]

Now young men let this be a warning[00:02:26]

For all you who long for the road[00:02:30]

Better stick to the straight life and don't be like me[00:02:35]

A poor bum to die in the cold[00:02:40]

Now don't be too hasty to judge me[00:02:46]

As I drift along with the tide[00:02:50]

My clothes may be ragged and dirty[00:02:55]

But a clean heart is beating inside[00:03:00]
