The Engineer's Dying Child - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)[00:00:00]

A little child on a sickbed lay [00:00:09]

And death was very near [00:00:13]

He was the pride and the only child of a railroad engineer [00:00:18]

His duty had called him from those he loved [00:00:26]

And seeing that hope was dim [00:00:31]

While a tear he shed to his wife he said [00:00:35]

Just have two lanterns trimmed "[00:00:40]

Just hang a light when I pass tonight [00:00:45]

Hang it where it can be seen [00:00:49]

If the baby's dead then show the red [00:00:54]

If he's better then show the green [00:00:58]

In a little shack [00:01:06]

By the railroad track [00:01:08]

A mother with watchful eyes [00:01:10]

Saw a gleam of hope in a tender smile [00:01:15]

As the train went rushing by [00:01:19]

Just one short look [00:01:24]

Was his only chance [00:01:26]

To see the light a gleam [00:01:28]

In the midnight air their rose a prayer [00:01:33]

Thank god the light was green[00:01:37]

Just hang a light when I pass tonight [00:01:42]

Hang it where it can be seen [00:01:46]

If the baby's dead then show the red [00:01:50]

If he's better then show the green[00:01:55]
