Comin’ After Jenny

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]
