Everglades (大沼泽地) - The Kingston Trio[00:00:00]
He was born and raised around jacksonville[00:00:10]
A nice young man not the kind to kill[00:00:13]
But a jealous fight and a flashing blade[00:00:16]
Sent him on the run to the everglades[00:00:20]
Runnin' like a dog through the everglades[00:00:23]
Now the posse went in and they came back out[00:00:28]
They said he'll die and there ain't no doubt[00:00:31]
It's an eye for an eye so the debt is paid[00:00:34]
He won't last long in the everglades[00:00:38]
A man can't live in the everglades[00:00:41]
Where a man can hide and never be found[00:00:46]
And have no fear of the bayin' hounds[00:00:49]
But he better keep movin' and don't stand still[00:00:53]
If the 'skeeters don't get then the 'gaters will[00:00:56]
Now the years went by and his girl was wed[00:01:09]
His fam'ly gave him up for dead[00:01:13]
But now and then the natives would say[00:01:16]
They'd seen him runnin' through the everglades[00:01:20]
Running like a dog through the everglades[00:01:23]
Now he never heard the news on the radio[00:01:28]
He was deep in the 'glades so he'll never know[00:01:31]
His runnin' and hidin' didn't make much sense for the jury[00:01:35]
Had ruled it was self defense[00:01:38]
Running like a dog through the everglades[00:01:41]
Where a man can hide and never be found and have[00:01:46]
No fear of the bayin' hounds[00:01:50]
But he better keep movin' and don't stand still[00:01:53]
If the 'skeeters don't get then the 'gaters will[00:01:56]
Running like a dog through the everglades[00:02:00]
Skippin' like a frog through the slimy bog[00:02:03]
Runnin' through the trees from the everlys[00:02:06]
