Old Rivers - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)[00:00:00]

How old was I when I first seen Old Rivers[00:00:09]

I can't remember when he weren't around[00:00:13]

That old fellow he did a heap of work[00:00:17]

He spent his whole life walking plowed ground[00:00:21]

He had the one roomed shack not far from us[00:00:25]

Well we's about as poor as him[00:00:28]

He had one old mule he used to call Midnight[00:00:33]

I'd tread along after then[00:00:37]

He used to plow them rows just straight and deep[00:00:41]

And I'd come along behind[00:00:45]

Busting up plows with my own bare feet[00:00:49]

Old Rivers he was a friend of mine[00:00:53]

The sun had get high and[00:00:57]

That old mule he'd work Old Rivers he'd finally say whoa[00:01:00]

He'd wipe his brow and he'd laid back on them reins[00:01:05]

He'd talk about that place he's wanna go[00:01:09]

He used to say one of these days[00:01:12]

I'm gonna climb that mountain[00:01:15]

I'm gonna walk up there among them Clouds[00:01:17]

Where the cotton's high and the corns're growing[00:01:21]

And there isn't no fields to plow[00:01:25]

I got a letter today it's from the folks back home[00:01:37]

They're all doing fine the crop's a little dry[00:01:42]

Mom said down near the end you heard Old Rivers died[00:01:46]

Sitting here now on this new plowed earth[00:01:54]

Just trying find a little shade[00:01:58]

Well sun's beating down cross them fields now I can see[00:02:01]

That mule Old Rivers and me[00:02:06]

Well he used to say one of these days[00:02:09]

I'm gonna climb that mountain[00:02:12]

I'm gonna walk up there among them Clouds[00:02:14]

Where the cotton's high and the corns're growing[00:02:17]

And there isn't no fields to plow[00:02:21]

With the sun beaiting own cross them fields[00:02:25]

That mule Old Rivers and me[00:02:28]
