Comin' After Jenny - Burl Ives (布勒·埃夫斯)[00:00:00]
He'll be coming down the road at the break of day[00:00:08]
His head thrown back and his guns tied low.[00:00:13]
He's coming after Jenny wants to take her away[00:00:17]
But I ain't gonna let her go.[00:00:21]
Oh, he boasted in town, but she loved him.[00:00:26]
He said she'd be his with the sun.[00:00:30]
He said anyone try to stop him[00:00:34]
Would be just one more notch on his gun.[00:00:38]
They say he's headstrong and handsome.[00:00:43]
His hair's blowing wild and free.[00:00:47]
And they got a hold...[00:00:51]
I ain't coming cuz he's a lot younger than me.[00:00:53]
He'll be coming down the road at the break of day.[00:01:00]
His head thrown back and his guns tied low.[00:01:04]
He's coming after Jenny wants to take her away[00:01:08]
But I ain't gonna let her go.[00:01:12]
He hasn't had much education.[00:01:17]
And he ain't worked a day in his life.[00:01:21]
He's living with some older woman.[00:01:25]
They say she's another man's wife.[00:01:29]
But she wants him and needs him, and loves him.[00:01:34]
She buys him his clothes and his meals.[00:01:38]
When she finds he's gone, she'll be praying[00:01:42]
And, Lord, I know just how she feels.[00:01:46]
But he'll be coming down the road at the break of day.[00:01:51]
His head thrown back and his guns tied low.[00:01:55]
He's coming after Jenny wants to take her away[00:01:59]
But I ain't gonna let her go.[00:02:03]
The sun's at his back as he's coming[00:02:08]
The smile is cruel on his lip.[00:02:12]
His right hand is slowly descending[00:02:16]
To the sixgun that rests on his hip.[00:02:20]
Then his lower lip started to tremble[00:02:25]
And he started crying as he looked up at me.[00:02:29]
As I picked him up,[00:02:33]
I said, "Son, you're only four years old,[00:02:34]
And you know Jenny is only three.[00:02:37]
So, come on inside the house,[00:02:42]
And have some cookies and milk.[00:02:44]
And he did and the tears turned to smiles.[00:02:46]
And I called up his mama.[00:02:50]
And I drove him home,[00:02:52]
And Jenny's safe... at least for a little while.[00:02:55]
