The Girl Behind The Bar (监狱里的女孩) - The Stanley Brothers[00:00:00]
As I walked in the Wayside Tavern[00:00:03]
The smell of drink was in the air[00:00:07]
I threw my money on the counter[00:00:11]
This pretty maid was standing there[00:00:15]
My thoughts they drifted so far from me[00:00:19]
As I looked upon her lovely face[00:00:23]
I knew she was my kind of woman[00:00:27]
No one could ever take her place[00:00:31]
I said when working hours are over[00:00:51]
I would just love to take you home[00:00:55]
She said young man that is a pleasure[00:00:58]
And soon we found ourselves alone[00:01:02]
And then our arms went around each other[00:01:07]
I felt a knife stick in her back[00:01:11]
She turned and saw her lover running[00:01:15]
And said his name was Barnum Jack[00:01:18]
She did not know her lover followed[00:01:38]
She did not know he was around[00:01:42]
Until the fate of death had struck her[00:01:46]
And now she sleeps beneath the ground[00:01:50]
I sit alone tonight in prison[00:01:54]
My thoughts are of the one so fair[00:01:58]
That I met that night in the Wayside Tavern[00:02:02]
When the smell of drink was in the air[00:02:06]
