[00:00.00]A Drunkard's Child - Jimmie Rodgers (吉米·罗杰斯)
[00:16.74]My father is a drunkard
[00:21.89]My mother she is dead;
[00:26.92]And I am just an orphan child
[00:32.09]No place to lay my head;
[00:36.95]All thru this world I wander
[00:41.80]They drive me from their door
[00:47.05]Some day I'll find a welcome
[00:51.88]On Heaven's golden shore
[00:57.13]Now if to me you'll listen
[01:01.99]I'll tell my story sad;
[01:07.03]How drinking rum and gambling
[01:10.85]Hell Has stole away my dad;
[01:16.88]My mother is in heaven
[01:21.66]Where God and the angels smile;
[01:26.65]And now I know she's watching
[01:31.15]Her lonely orphan child
[01:47.67]We all were once so happy
[01:52.55]And had a happy home;
[01:57.51]Till dad he went to drinking rum
[02:02.55]And then he gambled some;
[02:07.46]He left my darling mother
[02:12.22]She died of a broken heart;
[02:17.29]And as I tell my story
[02:21.81]I see your tear-drops start
[02:27.16]Don't weep for me and mother
[02:32.10]Altho' I know 'tis said;
[02:37.12]But try to get someone to cheer
[02:42.08]And save my poor lonely dad;
[02:46.92]"I'm awful cold and hungry "
[02:51.73]She closed her eyes and sighed;
[02:56.98]Then those who heard her story
[03:01.38]Knew the orphan child has died
