When First Into This Country (当第一次来到这个国家) - Fairport[00:00:00]

Written by：Traditional[00:00:00]

When first down to this country[00:00:00]

A stranger I came[00:00:03]

I courted younger[00:00:07]

And Nancy was her name[00:00:10]

I courted her for love[00:00:13]

I'm love I didn't obtain[00:00:16]

Do you think I've any reason[00:00:19]

Or right to complain[00:00:23]

I rode to see my Nancy[00:00:30]

And I rode both day and night[00:00:32]

And I stole a fine dray horse[00:00:36]

From captain William White[00:00:39]

The sheriff's guards they followed[00:00:42]

And it overtaken me[00:00:45]

They carted me away[00:00:49]

To the penitentiary[00:00:52]

Bob slang me in the cell[00:01:24]

And then the lord be in[00:01:27]

They shaved off my head[00:01:30]

I'm been lost my chin[00:01:34]

They beat me and they banged me[00:01:37]

And fed me on dried beef[00:01:39]

Till I wished to my own soul[00:01:43]

I'd never been a thief[00:01:47]

With my coat of many colors[00:01:49]

And the colorful coat I feel so bold[00:01:52]

I show the night[00:01:56]

But it's the Jacob's of old I got[00:01:58]

When first unto this country[00:02:07]

A stranger I came[00:02:10]

I courted younger[00:02:13]

And Nancy was her name[00:02:18]
