21 (Twenty One) - Carl Perkins (卡尔·帕金斯)[00:00:00]

Now y'was just a young fellah son[00:00:17]

The night your poor mama died[00:00:20]

And you don't remember it now[00:00:23]

Why we was both right there by mama's side[00:00:26]

Ya see your ma had this sickness boy[00:00:31]

From all the hard work she'd done[00:00:35]

And she prayed all of her life[00:00:39]

That god would let her raise her baby to be[00:00:42]

Twenty one[00:00:46]

Aw me and you never moved into town boy[00:00:48]

We just kept on livin' out here[00:00:52]

And life's been pretty bad[00:00:55]

For the past twenty one years[00:00:59]

Aw I remember now when you was a little fellah[00:01:02]

And I used to take my boy to church[00:01:08]

And I seen you in the choir with them other[00:01:12]

Young'uns[00:01:14]

And it gave this heart a jerk[00:01:15]

Ah you sounded like a little bitty angel boy[00:01:19]

And to papa you sure did look sweet[00:01:24]

Even though your little ragged britches[00:01:29]

They came half way to your skinny little knees[00:01:33]

And after the service was all over[00:01:38]

Aw it always filled your papa's heart with joy[00:01:41]

The good preacher'd step down[00:01:46]

And he'd pat your little head[00:01:48]

And then he'd say[00:01:50]

Carlin[00:01:51]

You've got yourself a fine little boy[00:01:53]

Then me and you'd get in the wagon child[00:01:59]

And you'd look over towards me[00:02:02]

And you know you just smiled an'[00:02:04]

Why I'd hand you the lines[00:02:07]

And I'd let you drive for a little while[00:02:10]

Oh I guess life has been tough[00:02:15]

For me and for you too son[00:02:18]

And I know tonight that I've prayed all of my[00:02:23]

Life[00:02:26]

That[00:02:26]

I could raise my baby to be twenty one[00:02:27]

So tonight son[00:02:32]

Livin' the life down here is about over[00:02:35]

And my work's on earth about done[00:02:39]

Maybe now I'll get to go see the lord and[00:02:43]

To live with your mama[00:02:47]

Aw thank you lord[00:02:50]

'Cause tonight[00:02:54]

My baby[00:02:56]

Is twenty one[00:02:58]

Precious sacred scenes untold[00:03:10]
