The Raven And The Coyote - Robert Earl Keen (罗伯特·伯爵基恩)[00:00:00]

I've been riding all day long through the wall of rain[00:00:08]

In the shadow of the mountains on the barren plains[00:00:14]

To my angel in the village where a lamplight glows[00:00:21]

If the dogs there don't betray me no one will know[00:00:28]

In the city of the soldier in the time of war[00:00:39]

There I met my Angelina I was 24[00:00:46]

We made arrangements soon thereafter[00:00:53]

Wedding plans were drawn just beyond the sound of laughter[00:00:56]

Cannons thundered on when I enlisted in the army Angelina cried[00:01:03]

I whispered to her "Don't you worry God is on our side"[00:01:18]

On the battlegrounds before me His plan was soon revealed[00:01:25]

He guided me to fame and glory on the battlefield[00:01:31]

Ooh ooh the raven flies ooh ooh the coyote cries[00:01:40]

Juan Miguel Ramos Montoya led his rebels well[00:01:57]

We fought them through the Emerald Valley to the Sacred Hill[00:02:03]

In the end we were defeated I was left for dead[00:02:10]

Juan Montoya took our city Angelina fled[00:02:17]

I took to hiding in the mountains through the wintertime[00:02:28]

In the spring I rode to safety across the borderline[00:02:35]

I sent word to Angelina soon I will return[00:02:42]

With the full moon in the window let your lamplight burn[00:02:49]

From the bluff above her village my hope has turned to fright[00:03:00]

Only darkness in the windows not a single light[00:03:07]

I cursed my God and shook my angry fists at Him above[00:03:14]

Twice forsaken once in war and now in love[00:03:21]

Ooh ooh the raven flies ooh ooh the coyote cries[00:03:29]

I ran in rage toward the chapel stricken by my loss[00:03:46]

I vowed to leave my lifeless body upon His holy Cross[00:03:52]

But at the altar of the chapel a lonely candle shown[00:03:59]

Across the face of Angelina kneeling all alone[00:04:06]

Ooh ooh the raven flies ooh ooh the coyote cries[00:04:26]

Ooh ooh the raven flies ooh ooh the coyote cries[00:04:40]
