[00:00.00]The Gun - Jim Reeves (吉姆·里夫斯)
[00:02.23]This is the story of love that came undone
[00:09.04]
[00:11.41]This is the story of two men and a gun of two men and a gun
[00:23.29]
[00:27.72]A man that I'd never met stole my wife and son
[00:30.78]
[00:32.47]But that's been nearly three years now
[00:34.16]And it's over with and done
[00:36.66]At first I'd stare out into space while hate consumed my soul
[00:39.91]Hate was the creed by which I lived and revenge my only goal
[00:46.06]
[00:48.13]But the road to happiness isn't paved with hate
[00:51.00]I'm glad I learned how to forgive before it was too late
[00:55.63]Now here's the way the other man paid for what he'd done
[00:58.56]I heard it from the man's own lips who took my wife and son
[01:01.00]
[01:04.69]I didn't really know this man but I'd seen him round
[01:08.22]He's a new guard at the factory where I work west of town
[01:11.10]
[01:12.16]This fellow swung into step with me and said I've got to talk
[01:15.06]
[01:16.18]I listened spellbound at his words as we stood on the walk
[01:19.64]
[01:21.01]You the guard said hoarsely are a kind man I surmise
[01:23.51]
[01:24.39]As he stood there with his handkerchief wiping in his eyes
[01:27.35]Three years ago I wronged a man I stole his wife and son
[01:32.55]I didn't realize then the terrible thing that I had done
[01:35.70]
[01:37.38]This thing gets hold of me at night and I can't sleep or rest
[01:43.32]Forgive me sir but telling it seems to get it off my chest
[01:47.21]
[01:48.15]When my past looms up like this it kinda helps me to unload
[01:51.00]
[01:52.70]I'm one man sir who knows for sure that you reap just what you sow
[01:56.63]
[01:58.82]I sure appreciate your listening it helps me a lot
[02:01.23]
[02:02.16]You know to have that man's forgiveness I'd give everything I've got
[02:05.22]
[02:07.91]Well I feel much better now I I didn't get your name
[02:12.46]More why that was my wife's name before we wed
[02:17.91]It's odd your name's the same
[02:20.65]You know I'd kill a man who'd do to me the thing that I've done
[02:22.28]
[02:24.66]And when the truth got through to him he handed me his gun
[02:28.66]
[02:29.85]As I gave the weapon back I said what's done is done
[02:35.54]All I ask is just be kind to Jenny and my son
