Blackjack Oak - Carolyn Hester (卡罗琳·赫斯特)/Marilyn Child[00:00:00]

Love came by from the riversmoke[00:00:03]

When the leaves were fresh on the tree[00:00:08]

But I cut my heart on the blackjack oak[00:00:12]

Before they fell on me[00:00:18]

The leaves are green in the early spring[00:00:25]

They are brown as linsey now[00:00:32]

I did not ask for a wedding-ring[00:00:36]

From the wind in the bending bough[00:00:41]

Fall lightly lightly leaves of the wild[00:00:49]

Fall lightly on my care[00:00:55]

I am not the first to go with child[00:01:01]

Because of the blowing air[00:01:06]

The good girls sleep in their modesty[00:01:14]

The bad girls sleep in their shame[00:01:19]

But I must sleep in the blackjack oak[00:01:23]

Till my child can have a name[00:01:28]

Cold and cold and cold again[00:01:35]

Cold in the blackjack limb[00:01:43]

The winds of the sky for his sponsor-men[00:01:49]

And a bird to christen him[00:01:56]

He's going to act like a hound let loose[00:02:02]

When he comes from that blackjack tree[00:02:09]

And he's going to walk in proud shoes[00:02:14]

All over tennessee[00:02:22]

All over tennessee[00:02:29]
