Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作词 : Nelson
[00:06.42] My brother and I were out huntin'
[00:10.58] A stray bullet made him its mark
[00:14.97] I carried him back to the cabin
[00:19.13] His life nothin' more than a spark
[00:23.43] He whispered to me very softly
[00:27.68] "Dear brother,I'm goin' away
[00:32.01] So listen and come to me closely
[00:36.31] There's so much that I have to say
[00:40.61] My sweetheart, her dear name is Sally
[00:45.01] Her mother and father have died
[00:49.42] She's waitin' alone in the valley
[00:53.81] When I left her, oh how she cried
[00:58.23] I promised to bring her my fortune
[01:02.47] Return to the valley and wed
[01:06.89] But I've had a call from my maker
[01:11.18] So I'll have to go there instead"
[01:19.98] He gave me the ring he had bought her
[01:24.12] And told of the plans they had made
[01:28.48] He spoke of how long she had waited
[01:32.83] And for his return, how she prayed
[01:37.14] He gave me a small piece of paper
[01:41.59] The will he had made for this day
[01:45.84] I promised to do as he wanted
[01:50.18] The Good Lord would show me the way
[01:54.62] He gave me his home in the valley
[01:59.08] And all of the money he had
[02:03.37] He asked me to marry hisSally
[02:08.05] And promise she'd never be sad
[02:12.51] But once long ago we were rivals
[02:16.86] For I loved her too from the start
[02:21.17] I'd made up my mind to stay single
[02:25.53] For Sally had broken my heart
[02:35.49] My dear brother went up to heaven
[02:39.83] And I went to our valley home
[02:44.22] But Sally had married another
[02:48.55] So what's left for me but to roam?
[02:53.06] I pray the good Lord up above me
[02:57.47] To keep Brother's faith in me still
[03:01.92] His Sally was fickle, unfaithful
[03:06.20] That's why I broke my brother's will.
