He Never Came Back - The Carter Family (卡特家族)[00:00:00]
An old Jane about 49[00:00:18]
Came in to view the town[00:00:21]
She registered up at Smith's[00:00:26]
Hotel as Miss Ada Brown[00:00:29]
She said she was just 25 and[00:00:34]
That she was in love[00:00:38]
With a young lad about 16 [00:00:42]
She called him her turtledove[00:00:46]
The wedding day at last arrived [00:00:50]
The birds did merrily sing[00:00:54]
He touched her up for a hundred[00:00:58]
To go out and buy the ring[00:01:02]
He never came back no he never came back[00:01:07]
He's been gone for a year or more[00:01:13]
That sassy young thing better have that ring[00:01:17]
When we meet on that beautiful shore[00:01:23]
I went down to a restaurant[00:01:43]
As hungry as a bear[00:01:47]
And a like raving thief I did [00:01:51]
I grabbed the bill of fare[00:01:55]
The waiter said now what for you [00:02:00]
A piece of steak I said[00:02:04]
He taken my order and bowed his[00:02:08]
Head and slowly walked away[00:02:12]
No he never came back no [00:02:16]
He never came back[00:02:20]
I waited an hour or more[00:02:22]
His neck I will break if he has not that steak[00:02:27]
When we meet on that beautiful shore[00:02:33]
