英文乡村歌曲：The Civil Wars - Barton Hollow

 [Verse 1: John Paul White with Joy Williams]

 

I'm a dead man walking here

 

But that's the least of all my fears

 

Ooh, underneath¹ the water

 

It's not Alabama clay

 

That gives my trembling hands away

 

Ooh, please forgive me, Father

 

 

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]

 

Ain't going back to Barton Hollow

 

Devil gonna follow me e'er I go

 

Won't do me no good washing in the river

 

Can't no preacher man save my soul

 

 

[Verse 2: John Paul White with Joy Williams]

 

Did that full moon force my hand?

 

Or that unmarked hundred grand?

 

Ooh, underneath the water

 

Ooh, please forgive me, Father

 

 

[Bridge: Joy Williams, John Paul White & Both]

 

Miles and miles in my bare feet

 

Still can't lay me down to sleep

 

If I die before I wake

 

I know the Lord, my soul won't

 

Take

 

I'm a dead man walking

 

I'm a dead man walking

 

Just keep walking and running and running for miles

 

Keep walking and running and running for miles

 

Keep walking and running and running for miles

 

 

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]

 

Ain't going back to Barton Hollow

 

Devil gonna follow me e'er I go

 

Won't do me no good washing in the river

 

Can't no preacher man save my soul
