My Mother Was A Lady - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)[00:00:00]

Two drummers sat at dinner in a grand hotel one day[00:00:10]

While dining they were chatting in a jolly sort of way[00:00:18]

When a pretty waitress brought them a fancy tray of food[00:00:27]

They spoke to her familiarly in a manner rather rude[00:00:35]

At first she did not notice or make the least reply[00:00:43]

But one remark was passed that brought teardrops to her eyes[00:00:52]

And facing her tormentors with cheeks now burning red[00:00:59]

She looked the perfect picture as appealingly she said[00:01:08]

My Mother was a lady and yours you will allow[00:01:16]

And you may have a sister who needs protection now[00:01:24]

I've come to this great city to find a brother dear[00:01:32]

And you'd dare not insult me sir if Jack were only here[00:01:40]

It's just one touch of nature[00:01:51]

But it makes the whole World kin[00:01:55]

And every word she uttered seemed to touch their hearts within[00:01:59]

They sat there stunned in silence until one cried in shame[00:02:07]

Forgive me miss I meant no harm pray tell me what's your name[00:02:15]

She told him and he cried I know your brother too[00:02:25]

Why we've been friends for many years and he often speaks of you[00:02:33]

He'll be so glad to see ypu and if you'll only wed[00:02:41]

I'll take you to him as my wife for I've loved you since you said[00:02:49]

My Mother was a lady like yours you will allow[00:02:57]

And you may have a sister who needs protection now[00:03:05]

I've come to this great city to find a brother dear[00:03:13]

And you'd dare not insult me sir if Jack were only here[00:03:21]
