《Silence On The Line》歌词

时长： 03:58

Took my last fall in San Diego[00:00:13]

Bus headed north one headed south[00:00:18]

I call a farm in Colorado[00:00:25]

And I lift a dusty pay phone to my mouth[00:00:29]

She says hello I say it's me hon[00:00:36]

Sorry I stayed away so long[00:00:42]

Tell the kids thier old man's through with playin' rodeo[00:00:47]

Cause if it's alright with you I'm comin' home[00:00:53]

Well there's silence on the line[00:00:59]

She says you sure did take your time[00:01:02]

But I still need a man for the things a man is good for[00:01:05]

You know how it is raisin' crops and raisin' kids[00:01:12]

Demands a man at least as fit as you are[00:01:16]

So come on git on home there's hay that needs a mowin'[00:01:23]

A boy that needs a whippin' and a hundred things to do[00:01:29]

I hope you've finally found your mind[00:01:35]

To leave that rodeo behind[00:01:39]

I've spent half my life just waitin' here for you[00:01:41]

I guess that nows the time I'd better tell her[00:01:50]

Hon I've got this old friend that's here with me[00:01:56]

He used to be a cowboy and a good one so they say[00:02:02]

But now his legs are crippled he can't walk you see[00:02:08]

But hon you ought to hear him tell his stories[00:02:16]

Sing the old songs play the guitar too[00:02:20]

I'd really like to show him Colorado[00:02:25]

But I thought I'd better leave it up to you[00:02:31]

Well there's silence on the line[00:02:37]

And now I hear her sayin'[00:02:40]

Babe I only need a man for the things a man is good for[00:02:42]

And you know how it is a place just half this big[00:02:49]

Demands a man at least as fit as you are[00:02:55]

Put yourself in his place it'd awful hard to face[00:03:00]

All the chores and work and nothing he could do[00:03:06]

If you want to know my mind leave that rodeo bum behind[00:03:12]

Don't waste our time I'm waitin' here for you[00:03:17]

Well cryin's just for kids I put down the phone[00:03:27]

Fumble with my crutches movin' slow[00:03:33]

I wish that I was on the bus that's Colorado bound[00:03:38]

And I hope the weather's nice in Mexico[00:03:42]
