Ballad Of Barbara (Live) - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)[00:00:00]

In a southern town where I was born[00:00:09]

That's where I got my education[00:00:13]

I worked in the fields and I walked in the woods[00:00:18]

And I wondered at creation [00:00:22]

I recall the sun in a sky of blue[00:00:27]

And the smell of green things growing[00:00:31]

And the seasons changed and I lived each day[00:00:36]

By the way the wind was blowing [00:00:41]

Then I heard of a cultured city life[00:00:45]

Breath taking lofty steeples[00:00:50]

And the day I called myself a man[00:00:54]

I left my land and my people [00:00:59]

And I rambled north and I rambled east[00:01:03]

And I tested and I tasted[00:01:08]

And a girl or two took me round and round[00:01:12]

But they always left me wasted [00:01:17]

In a world that's all concrete and steel[00:01:21]

With nothing green ever growing[00:01:26]

Where the buildings hide the rising sun[00:01:30]

And they blocked the free winds from blowing[00:01:35]

Where you sleep all day and you wake all night[00:01:39]

To a world of drink and laughter[00:01:44]

I met that girl that I was sure would be[00:01:48]

The one that I was after [00:01:53]

In a soft blue gown and formal tux[00:02:20]

Beneath that lofty steeple[00:02:24]

He said "Do you Barbara take this man [00:02:29]

Will you be one of his people "[00:02:34]

And she said "I will " and she said "I do "[00:02:38]

And the world looked mighty pretty[00:02:42]

And we lived in a fancy downtown flat[00:02:47]

'Cause she loved the noisy city [00:02:51]

But the days grew cold beneath a yellow sky[00:02:56]

And I longed for green things growing[00:03:00]

And the thoughts of home and the people there[00:03:05]

But she'd not agreed to going[00:03:10]

Then her hazel eyes turned away from me[00:03:14]

With a look that wasn't pretty[00:03:19]

And she turned into concrete and steel[00:03:23]

And she said "I'll take the city "[00:03:28]

Now the cars go by on the interstate[00:03:32]

And my pack is on my shoulder[00:03:36]

But I'm going home where I belong[00:03:41]

Much wiser now and older[00:03:45]
