Penny To My Name - Eva Cassidy (伊娃·卡斯迪)[00:00:00]
Bill and I got married[00:00:16]
Following our first born[00:00:19]
Daddy left this gas convenience store[00:00:21]
Just before he died[00:00:26]
And I was only nineteen when[00:00:29]
I had my third baby[00:00:32]
Sometimes I think maybe[00:00:35]
I should've left here long ago[00:00:37]
Travellers are stopping by[00:00:44]
Check their oil and their psi[00:00:47]
Gas up away to fly moving down the line[00:00:51]
But this beat up truck worn out shoes[00:00:56]
Always give me the blues[00:01:00]
Billy sucking down the booze nearly every night[00:01:03]
I never seen the city lights[00:01:10]
How they must shine so bright[00:01:13]
Not like this country night[00:01:17]
The sky's black as coal[00:01:19]
And this gas station mountain home[00:01:22]
Not a thing to call my own[00:01:26]
How I wish I was alone[00:01:30]
With a penny to my name[00:01:32]
Strangers say this mountain here is beautiful beyond compare[00:01:48]
But it's just a dumb old mountain[00:01:53]
I see it every day[00:01:58]
If I could see sunset skies[00:02:00]
Over fields of green or ocean tides[00:02:04]
City skyline in the night[00:02:07]
I'll be dancing till the dawn[00:02:10]
I never seen the city lights[00:02:14]
How they must shine so bright[00:02:17]
Not like this country night[00:02:21]
The sky's black as coal[00:02:23]
And this gas station mountain home[00:02:26]
Not a thing to call my own[00:02:30]
How I wish I was alone[00:02:34]
With a penny to my name[00:02:36]
Bill and I got married following our first born[00:02:42]
Daddy left this gas convenience store just before he died[00:02:48]
Maybe Bill I someday will find a chance to get away[00:02:55]
Until then it's here I'll stay wishing on a star[00:03:01]
I never seen the city lights[00:03:08]
How they must shine so bright[00:03:11]
Not like this country night[00:03:15]
The sky's black as coal[00:03:17]
And this gas station mountain home[00:03:21]
Not a thing to call my own[00:03:24]
How I wish I was alone[00:03:28]
With a penny to my name[00:03:31]
