Ma Baker's Little Acre - John D. Loudermilk (约翰尼·迪伊)[00:00:00]

Written by：John D. Loudermilk[00:00:01]

Now a little old lady by the name of Ma Baker[00:00:08]

Lived out of town on one square acre[00:00:12]

In a little white house with a picket fence all around[00:00:15]

She had a kind and a gentle way 'till the day the TVA[00:00:23]

Tried to make Ma Baker sell her little acre of land[00:00:29]

They showed her a map of how the river ran[00:00:37]

And a sketch of a brand new dam[00:00:41]

But Ma Baker wouldn't sell her little acre of land[00:00:44]

She said pa left this to me sonny[00:00:52]

And I wouldn't sell for love nor money[00:00:55]

No sir Ma Baker's gonna keep her little acre of land[00:00:59]

The next time they came they brought the sheriff[00:01:06]

Found Ma said in an old porch chair[00:01:10]

Just a knittin' and a rockin' out in the evening sun[00:01:14]

She said I think you best to wait[00:01:21]

Don't just step through the picket gate[00:01:25]

And on ma's lap they noticed pa's old shotgun[00:01:28]

Yeah now out in the middle of the brand new lake[00:01:46]

Is a little island of one square acre[00:01:50]

And Ma Baker's just as happy as she can be[00:01:53]

Although she can't swim but she can float[00:02:00]

And catch big bass from her motor boat[00:02:04]

And when the wind ain't blowin' too strong she can water ski[00:02:08]

And my Baker still owns her little acre of land[00:02:14]
