Don't Go Near The Water - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)[00:00:00]
Written by:Johnny Cash[00:00:00]
From the fountains in the mountains[00:00:09]
Comes the water running cool and clear and blue[00:00:11]
And it comes down from the hills[00:00:16]
And it goes down to the towns and passes through[00:00:18]
When it gets down to the cities[00:00:23]
Then the water turns into a dirty gray[00:00:25]
It's poisoned and polluted[00:00:30]
By the people as it goes along its way[00:00:32]
Don't go near the water children[00:00:37]
See the fish all dead upon the shore[00:00:40]
Don't go near the water[00:00:44]
Cause the water isn't water anymore[00:00:47]
I took my boy fishin' to my old favorite fishin' hole[00:00:52]
I had caught many a fish out of that deep clear water[00:00:55]
From the time I was a boy like him[00:00:59]
After we'd fished a few minutes[00:01:01]
He said "Did you get a bite yet daddy "[00:01:03]
I said "I think I got a nibble son"[00:01:06]
"Me too" he said[00:01:08]
Then he said "Daddy if we catch a fish can we eat him"[00:01:10]
I said "Well there was a time son[00:01:14]
This water's bad now and I might not be safe to eat the fish[00:01:17]
But there was a time"[00:01:22]
There was a time the air was clean[00:01:25]
And you could see forever 'cross the plains[00:01:28]
The wind was sweet as honey[00:01:32]
And no one had ever heard of acid rain[00:01:34]
We're torturin' the earth[00:01:39]
And pourin' every kind of evil in the sea[00:01:40]
We violated nature[00:01:46]
And our children have to pay the penalty[00:01:48]
Don't go near the water children[00:01:53]
See the fish all dead upon the shore[00:01:55]
Don't go near the water[00:01:59]
Cause the water isn't water anymore[00:02:01]
Don't go near the water children[00:02:06]
See the fish all dead upon the shore[00:02:08]
Don't go near the water[00:02:13]
Cause the water isn't water anymore[00:02:15]
