[00:00.00]Let Him Roll - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)
[00:14.18]Let him roll boys let him roll
[00:21.27]I bet he's gone to dallas rest his soul
[00:28.26]Now he was a wino tried and true
[00:31.96]Done about everything there is to do
[00:35.09]He worked on freighters he worked in bars
[00:38.37]He worked on farms 'n he worked on cars
[00:43.06]Now it was white port whine that put that look in his eye
[00:46.78]That grown men get when they need to cry
[00:50.16]And we sat down on the curb to rest
[00:53.53]And his head just fell down on his chest
[00:57.97]He said"every single day it gets
[01:01.37]Just a little bit harder to handle and yet"
[01:05.22]Then he lost the thread and his mind got cluttered
[01:08.60]The words just rolled off down in the gutter
[01:13.41]He was a elevator man in a cheap hotel
[01:16.83]In exchange for the rent on a one room cell
[01:20.33]And he's years old before his time
[01:23.60]No thanks to the world and the white port wine
[01:28.31]And he said"son" he always called me son
[01:31.75]He said"life for you has just begun"
[01:35.17]And then he told me the story that i heard before
[01:38.73]How he fell in love with a dallas whore
[01:43.55]He could cut through the years to the very night
[01:47.28]That it all ended in a whore house fight
[01:50.58]And she turned his last proposal down
[01:54.03]In favor of being a girl about town
[01:58.69]Now it's been seventeen years right in line
[02:02.26]And he ain't been straight none of the time
[02:05.58]It's too many years of fightin' the weather
[02:09.26]And too many nights of not being together
[02:13.27]So he died
[02:16.83]Let him roll boys let him roll
[02:23.84]I bet he's gone to dallas rest his soul
[02:30.22]Let him roll boys let him roll
[02:37.43]He always thought that heaven
[02:40.99]Was just a dallas whore
[02:46.17]When they went through his personal affects
[02:49.52]In among the stubs from the welfare checks
[02:52.71]Was a crumblin' picture of a girl in a door
[02:56.17]An address in dallas and nothin' more
[03:01.02]Well the welfare people provided the priest
[03:04.29]And a couple from the mission down the street
[03:07.36]Sang amasing grace and nobody cried
[03:11.09]'Cept some lady in black way off to the side
[03:16.32]We all left and she's standing there
[03:19.40]The black veil covering her silver hair
[03:22.45]And one-eyed john said her name was alice
[03:26.49]She used to be a whore in dallas
[03:30.43]Let him roll boys let him roll
[03:37.79]I bet he's gone to dallas rest his soul
[03:43.73]Let him roll boys let him roll
[03:51.16]He always thought that heaven
[03:54.50]Was just a dallas whore
[03:57.17]Let him roll boys let him roll
[04:10.61]Let him roll
