May I Sleep in Your Barn Tonight Mister - Hank Thompson & His Brazos Valley Boys[00:00:00]
May I sleep in your barn Mister[00:00:06]
It is cold lying out on the ground[00:00:12]
And the cold north wind is whistling[00:00:17]
And I have no place to lie down[00:00:22]
Now I have no tobacco nor matches[00:00:28]
And I'm sure I can cause you no harm[00:00:34]
I will tell you my story kind Mister[00:00:39]
For it runs through my heart like a storm[00:00:45]
It was three years ago just last summer[00:00:51]
I shall never forget that sad day[00:00:56]
When a stranger came out from the city[00:01:02]
And said that he wanted to stay[00:01:08]
Now the stranger was fair tall and handsome[00:01:14]
And he looked like a man who had wealth[00:01:19]
And he wanted to stay in the country said[00:01:25]
He wanted to stop for his health[00:01:31]
One night as I came from my workshop[00:01:37]
I was whistling and singing with joy[00:01:42]
I expected a kind hearty[00:01:47]
Welcome from my sweet loving wife and my boy[00:01:51]
But what did I find but a letter[00:02:00]
It was placed in my room on the stand[00:02:05]
And the moment my eyes fell upon[00:02:10]
It I picked it right up in my hand[00:02:16]
Now this note said my wife[00:02:22]
And the stranger had left and had taken my son[00:02:25]
Oh I wonder if God up in heaven[00:02:33]
Only knows what this stranger has done[00:02:39]
May I sleep in your barn Mister[00:02:45]
It is cold lying out on the ground[00:02:51]
And the cold north wind is a whistling[00:02:56]
And I have no place to lie down[00:03:02]
