Song | Tennessee Bottle |
Artist | Kenny Rogers |
Album | Very Best Of Kenny Rogers |
作词 : Ritchie | |
I broke the law and I used a gun | |
I broke the Ten Commandments one by one | |
I always wished that I had a son | |
Just to teach him not to | |
I lived in the valley and I hid in the hills | |
I stole moonshine from illegal stills | |
Folks said "Don't rile him 'cause he may kill" | |
But only if I've got to | |
All I want is a Tennessee bottle | |
All I need is an Arkansas bride | |
All I can see is an Ozark mountain sunrise | |
And 500 miles to hide my life, life, life, to hide my life | |
To hide my life | |
I tried to farm and I tried to mine | |
I tried cuttin' on the timberline | |
But pain and sweat was all I'd find | |
Rewarding all my labor | |
So I robbed banks and I robbed trains | |
I lost one eye in a poker game | |
I gave up gambling 'cause it's such a shame | |
To cheat your friends and neighbors | |
All I want is a Tennessee bottle | |
All I need is an Arkansas bride | |
All I can see is an Ozark mountain sunrise | |
And 500 miles to hide my life, life, life, to hide my life | |
To hide my life | |
I think I'm gonna quit and change my ways | |
Settle down and live an honest day | |
Someone said that crime don't pay | |
But I gotta 'nuff to live on | |
I think I'm gonna move to Little Rock | |
Leave my doors without a lock | |
I might be a foot without a sock | |
But I got cash to stand on | |
All I want is a Tennessee bottle | |
All I need is an Arkansas bride | |
All I can see is an Ozark mountain sunrise | |
And 500 miles to hide my life, life, life, to hide my life | |
To hide my life |
