Kenny Rogers[肯尼.罗杰斯]-coward of the county文本歌词

Coward Of The County - Kenny Rogers
Everyone considered him the coward of the county
He d never stood one single time to prove the county wrong
His mama named him Tommy, but folks just called him Yellow
Something always told me, they were reading Tommy wrong
He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison
I looked after Tommy, cause he was my brother s son
I still recall the final words my brother said to Tommy
Son, my life is over, but yours has just begun
Promise me, son, not to do the things I ve done
Walk away from trouble if you can
It won t mean you re weak if you turn the other cheek
I hope you re old enough to understand
Son, you don t have to fight to be a man
There s someone for everyone and Tommy s love was Becky
In her arms, he didn t have to prove he was a man
One day while he was working, the Gatlin boys came calling
They took turns at Becky an there was three of them
Tommy opened up the door and saw his Becky crying
The torn dress, the shattered look was more than he could stand
He reached above the fireplace and took down his daddy s picture
As his tears fell on his daddy s face, he heard these words again
Promise me, Son, not to do the things I ve done
Walk away from trouble if you can
It won t mean you re weak if you turn the other cheek
I hope you re old enough to understand
Son, you don t have to fight to be a man
The Gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the bar room
One of them got up and met him half way cross the floor
When Tommy turned around they said, Hey look! Old Yellow s leaving
But you could ve heard a pin drop
When Tommy stopped and locked the door
Twenty years of crawling were bottled up inside him
He wasn t holding nothing back, he let em have it all
When Tommy left the bar room, not a Gatlin boy was standing
He said, This one s for Becky, as he watched the last one fall
An I heard him say
I promised you, Dad, not to do the things you ve done
I walk away from trouble when I can
Now please don t think I m weak, I didn t turn the other cheek
And Papa, I should hope you understand
Sometimes you gotta fight when you re a man
Everyone considered him the coward of the county
