The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn - Alison Krauss & Union Station

· lrc歌词

[00:37.89]Tell You a little story and it won't take long,
[00:47.63]'Bout a lazy farmer who wouldn't hoe his corn.
[00:56.60]The reason why I never could tell,
[01:05.56]That young man was always well.
[01:09.79]
[01:16.80]He planted his corn in the month of June.
[01:26.52]By July it was up to his eyes.
[01:35.88]Come September, came a big frost.
[01:45.22]And all the young man's corn was lost.
[01:50.88]
[02:15.33]His story, kith, had just begun.
[02:22.06]Said: "Young man, have you hoed some corn?"
[02:27.41]"Well I tried and I tried, and I tried in vain.
[02:34.27]"But I don't believe I raised no grain."
[02:37.81]
[02:58.62]He went down town to his neighbour's door.
[03:05.61]Where he had often been before.
[03:11.15]Sayin': "Pretty little miss, will you marry me?"
[03:17.89]"Little miss what do you say?"
[03:22.43]
[03:41.90]"Why do you come for me to wed?
[03:48.66]"You, can't even make your own corn grain.
[03:54.42]"Single I am, and will remain.
[04:01.02]"A lazy man, I won't maintain."
[04:07.90]
[04:09.12]He turned his back and walked away.
[04:17.58]Sayin: "Little miss, you'll rue the day.
[04:24.18]"You'll rue the day that you were born.
[04:33.40]"For givin' me the devil 'cos I wouldn't hoe corn."
