[00:00.000] 作曲 : Colin Meloy
[00:25.198] Early in the evening, when the working is through
[00:29.626] And the field's all in furrows, and there ain't much to do
[00:34.446] Me and my lady, all a-riding did go
[00:38.747] As we wait for the reapers to mow
[00:46.240] You lay on the hayrake and me on the plow
[00:50.992] Foreman's in the granary, a-wiping his brow
[00:55.603] Gonna break an ankle just a-working this row
[00:59.839] As we wait for the reapers to mow
[01:04.371] As we wait for the reapers to mow
[01:13.152] Over the next valley, where the land is all wild
[01:17.426] And the hillside's all berries and thornweed for miles
[01:22.461] Gonna plow a pasture where no one will go
[01:26.672] And I'll wait for the reapers to mow
[01:34.203] I heard of a mansion on top of a hill
[01:38.503] Where a lordling lives splendid, just eating his fill
[01:43.435] Dressed in white linen, his servants in tow
[01:47.630] Still he waits for the reapers to mow
[01:52.297] Still he waits for the reapers to mow
[02:13.994] Come and go with me to a land overseas
[02:18.294] Where the people sit idle and do as they please
[02:23.062] But one thing you can't run from, wherever you go
[02:27.546] Is that wait for the reapers to mow
[02:34.930] I heard of a beggar, not a sous to his name
[02:39.481] Born in a brothel to the madame's disdain
[02:44.282] Put him in the gutter or in a chateau
[02:48.365] He'll still wait for the reaper to mow
[02:53.165] He's gotta wait for the reaper to mow
[03:23.895] I dreamed of a trial, 'tween the moon and the sun
[03:28.387] Where the stars were the jury and the heavens the judge
[03:33.240] Awarded to the plaintiff, the defendant brought low
[03:37.535] She must wait for the reapers to mow
[03:42.542] Tomorrow and tomorrow, when the working is done
[03:47.126] And the fields are all fallow and the harrow is run
[03:52.019] Come and lie with me in the fresh fallen snow
[03:56.238] And we'll wait for the reapers to mow
[04:00.986] And we'll wait for the reapers to mow
