Big Four Poster Bed - Brenda Lee (布伦达·李)[00:00:00]
Written by:SILVERSTEIN, SHEL/Shel Silverstein[00:00:00]
It was just boards of rough cut pine[00:00:07]
And a quilt of patch work cotton[00:00:11]
A place to lay your body down was that big four poster bed[00:00:15]
Daddy built it out of pine two days before the wedding[00:00:24]
They say the neighbors cheered and hollered till his face got red[00:00:31]
And mama brought the feather pillows and some handmade bedding[00:00:38]
And they spent their wedding night in that big four poster bed[00:00:45]
That night they swore like that bed their love would last forever[00:00:54]
And they'd ask no more of life than the simple things they had[00:01:01]
So they planed there future as they laid close together[00:01:08]
And later I was born there in that big four poster bed[00:01:15]
It was just some boards of rough cut pine[00:01:24]
And a quilt of patch work cotton[00:01:28]
A place to lay your body down a place to rest your head[00:01:31]
A field of fluffy mountains for a little girl to hide in[00:01:38]
Clouds and chasing rainbows was that big four poster bed[00:01:45]
I remember as a child waking up on a winter morning[00:01:54]
With sound of laughing voices and the smell of baking bread[00:02:01]
And running across that coal wood floor jumping there with them[00:02:08]
And lord I felt so safe and warm in that big four poster bed[00:02:15]
The day that daddy died he whispered something soft to mama[00:02:24]
To this day she's never told a soul the words he said[00:02:31]
She just smiled through her tears and held his hand and nodded[00:02:38]
And my daddy looked so much at rest in that big four poster bed[00:02:45]
It was just some boards of rough cut pine[00:02:53]
And a quilt of patchwork cotton[00:02:57]
A place to lay your body down a place to rest your head[00:03:00]
A field of fluffy mountains for a little girl to hide in[00:03:08]
Clouds and chasing rainbows was that big four poster bed[00:03:15]
Now time has dried up all the tears here I stand a woman[00:03:24]
Your arms reach out to touch my soul your sweet words turn my head[00:03:31]
Darling won't you tell me first this will be forever[00:03:38]
Before you lead me up the stairs to that big four poster bed[00:03:44]
'Cause only love has ever touched that big four poster bed[00:03:52]
Yes it was just some boards of rough cut pine[00:04:06]
And a quilt of patchwork cotton[00:04:10]
A place to lay your body down a place to rest your head[00:04:14]
A field of fluffy mountains for a little girl to hide in[00:04:21]
Clouds and chasing rainbows was that big four poster bed[00:04:28]
