The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia (格鲁吉亚灯火熄灭之夜) - Studio Musicians (工作室音乐家)[00:00:00]
He was on his way home from candle top[00:00:12]
Been two weeks gone and he thought he'd stop[00:00:15]
At Web's and have him a drink for he went home to her[00:00:18]
Andy wo-lo said hello[00:00:25]
He said "Hi what's a doing "[00:00:27]
Wo said "Sit down I got some bad news that's gonna hurt[00:00:29]
Said I'm your best friend and you know that's right[00:00:35]
But your young bride ain't home tonight[00:00:38]
Since you been gone she's been seeing that amos boy Seth"[00:00:41]
But he got mad and he saw red[00:00:47]
And Andy said "Boy don't you lose your head[00:00:50]
Cause to tell you the truth I've been with her myself"[00:00:52]
That's the night that the lights went out in georgia[00:00:58]
That's the night that they hung an innocent man[00:01:04]
Well don't trust your soul to no back woods southern lawyer[00:01:09]
Cause the judge in the town's got bloodstains on his hand[00:01:14]
Andy got scared and left the bar[00:01:20]
Walking on home cause he didn't live far you see[00:01:23]
Andy didn't have many friends and he just lost him one[00:01:26]
Brother thought his wife must've left town[00:01:32]
So he went home and finally found the only thing[00:01:35]
Daddy had left him and that was a gun[00:01:38]
He went off to Andy's house[00:01:43]
Slipping through the back woods quiet as a mouse[00:01:46]
Came upon some tracks too small for Andy to make[00:01:49]
He looked through the screen at the back porch door[00:01:55]
He saw Andy lying on the floor[00:01:57]
In a puddle of blood and he started to shake[00:02:00]
The Georgia patrol was making their rounds[00:02:06]
So he fired a shot just to flag 'em down[00:02:09]
And a big bellied sheriff grabbed his gun and said[00:02:11]
"Why'd you do it "[00:02:14]
The judge said guilty in a make believe trial[00:02:17]
Slapped the sheriff on the back with a smile and said[00:02:20]
"Suppers waiting at home and I got to get to it"[00:02:23]
That's the night that the lights went out in georgia[00:02:29]
That's the night that they hung an innocent man[00:02:35]
Well don't trust your soul to no back woods southern lawyer[00:02:39]
Cause the judge in the town's got bloodstains on his hand[00:02:45]
Well they hung my brother before I could say[00:02:51]
The tracks he saw while on his way[00:02:54]
To Andy's house and back that night were mine[00:02:56]
And his cheatin wife had never left town[00:03:02]
And that's one body that'll never be found[00:03:05]
You see little sister don't miss when she aims her gun[00:03:08]
That's the night that the lights went out in georgia[00:03:14]
That's the night that they hung an innocent man[00:03:20]
Well don't trust your soul to no back woods southern lawyer[00:03:25]
Cause the judge in the town's got bloodstains on his hand[00:03:30]
That's the night that the lights went out in georgia[00:03:36]
That's the night that they hung an innocent man[00:03:42]
Well don't trust your soul to no back woods southern lawyer[00:03:47]
Cause the judge in the town's got bloodstains on his hand[00:03:52]
