Tougher Than Leather - Willie Nelson (威利·纳尔逊)[00:00:00]
He was Tougher Than Leather [00:00:06]
And he didn't care whether [00:00:09]
The sun shined or not [00:00:12]
When a young kid from Cow Town [00:00:17]
Wanted a showdown [00:00:21]
And he was careless or just maybe forgot [00:00:23]
But he died in the gunfight [00:00:29]
Blinded by sunlight:[00:00:32]
Never draw when you're facin' the sun [00:00:35]
And old Tougher Than Leather [00:00:40]
Just carved one more notch on his gun [00:00:44]
And when he turned to go [00:00:50]
The beautiful maiden knelt down [00:00:55]
Where her dead sweetheart lay [00:00:59]
And on his breast placed a rose [00:01:05]
While the townspeople stared in dismay [00:01:09]
And old Tougher Than Leather [00:01:18]
Should've known better [00:01:21]
But he picked up the rose in his hand [00:01:24]
And the townspeople froze [00:01:30]
When his hands crushed the rose [00:01:32]
And the rose petals fell in the sand [00:01:36]
And old Tougher Than Leather [00:01:44]
Was a full-time go-getter [00:01:47]
The grass never grew beneath his feet [00:01:50]
From one town to another [00:01:55]
He would ride like the wind [00:01:58]
But his mind kept going back to the street [00:02:01]
Where a young cowboy died [00:02:07]
And a young maiden cried [00:02:10]
And rose petals fell in the sand [00:02:13]
And his heart had been softened [00:02:18]
By the beautiful maid [00:02:21]
And he knew he must see her again [00:02:24]
Well he went back to the town [00:02:32]
Where it all had come down [00:02:35]
And he searched but his search was in vain [00:02:38]
He had wanted to find her [00:02:44]
And say he was sorry [00:02:47]
For causing her heart so much pain [00:02:50]
But one night he died [00:02:56]
From a poison inside [00:02:58]
Brought on by the wrong he had done [00:03:01]
And old Tougher Than Leather [00:03:07]
Had carved his last notch on his gun [00:03:09]
Well he was burried in Cow Town [00:03:18]
Along about sundown [00:03:21]
Lookin' good in his new store-bought clothes [00:03:24]
When the young maiden came over [00:03:29]
And knelt down beside him [00:03:32]
And on his lapel placed a rose [00:03:35]
There's a bird in the sky [00:03:42]
Flying high flying high [00:03:47]
To a place from a place [00:03:53]
Changing skies changing skies[00:03:58]
