When the Work's All Done This Fall - Marty Robbins[00:00:01]
A group of jolly cowboys discussing plans at ease[00:00:06]
Said one I'll tell you something boys[00:00:12]
If you will listen please[00:00:16]
I'm an old cow puncher [00:00:19]
And here I'm dressed in rags[00:00:21]
I used to be a tough one[00:00:25]
And go on great big jags[00:00:27]
I have got a home boys [00:00:31]
A good one you all know[00:00:34]
Although I haven't seen it since long long ago[00:00:36]
I'm going back to Dixie[00:00:43]
Once more to see them all[00:00:45]
I'm going home to Mother[00:00:49]
When the work's all done this fall[00:00:51]
That night this very cowboy[00:00:55]
Went out to stand his guard[00:00:58]
The night was dark and stormy [00:01:01]
Was raining very hard[00:01:04]
The cattle they got frightened[00:01:07]
And they rushed in wild stampede[00:01:10]
The cowboy tried to turn them[00:01:13]
While riding at full speed[00:01:16]
While riding in the darkness [00:01:19]
Loudly he did shout[00:01:23]
Trying his best to stop them[00:01:26]
Or turn the herd about[00:01:28]
His saddle horse did stumble[00:01:32]
And upon him it did fall[00:01:34]
Poor boy won't see his Mother[00:01:38]
When the work's all done this fall[00:01:40]
Fred you take my saddle [00:01:44]
Jim you take my bed[00:01:47]
Johnny take my pistol after I am dead[00:01:50]
Think about me kindly[00:01:56]
As you look upon them all[00:01:59]
Cause I'll not see my Mother[00:02:02]
When the work's all done this fall[00:02:04]
They buried Charlie at daybreak[00:02:08]
No tombstone at his head[00:02:11]
Nothing but a little board[00:02:15]
And this is what it said[00:02:17]
Charlie died at daybreak [00:02:21]
He died from a fall[00:02:24]
Poor boy won't see his Mother[00:02:27]
When the work's all done this fall[00:02:29]
