Too Many Parties And Too Many Pals (Single Version) - Hank Williams (小汉克威廉斯)[00:00:00]
Too many parties and too many pals[00:00:09]
Will break your heart someday[00:00:17]
Too many boyfriends and sociable sals[00:00:25]
Will drive your sweetheart away[00:00:33]
Gentlemen of the jury the judge's speech began[00:00:42]
The scene was a crowded courtroom and the judge a sterned old man[00:00:47]
This prisoner here before you is a social enemy[00:00:54]
A lady of the evening and you know the penalty[00:00:59]
Her eyes reflect the nightlife her cheeks they're red with paint[00:01:03]
But I knew her mother gentlemen why her mother was a saint[00:01:09]
Now I know that she's not like her and yet she might have been[00:01:14]
If it hadn't been for petting parties cigarettes and gin[00:01:19]
We took the night life off the streets and brought into our own homes[00:01:25]
While girls beat time with lipstick and the streaks of saxophones[00:01:30]
We opened up the underworld to the ones we loved so well[00:01:36]
So tell me gentlemen is it right to send her to a cell [00:01:41]
If she drinks while you taught her and if she smokes you showed her how[00:01:47]
So gentlemen do you think it's right to condemn her now [00:01:53]
And when you're in that juryroom just remember there and then[00:01:58]
That for every fallen woman why there's a hundred fallen men[00:02:03]
And before you render a verdict on what this girl has done[00:02:09]
Just remember there's a man to blame and that man might be your son[00:02:15]
Now gentlemen that's my story my testimony stands[00:02:22]
This girl is my own daughter and the case is in your hands[00:02:26]
Those Broadway roses and prevalent sounds[00:02:32]
At too many parties and too many pals[00:02:43]
