Gone to America歌词

作词 : Knight, Steeleye Span
Married him in
April, lost him in
July;Listen to my story and
I'll tell you why,
They said that he'd been poaching and stealing wine,
They said
I wouldn't see him for a long long time.
Chorus: They said he's gone to
America,To work the land that some called
Virginia;They said he's gone to
America.Married him in
April, lost him in
July;They took him as their prisoner then told me why,
They said they had sent him where poachers go,
I asked if
I could see him but they said no.
Chorus:Married him in
April, lost him in
July;Curse the men who took him, curse their wicked lie,
The night they saw him poaching and stealing wine,
Was the night he took comfort in these arms of mine.
Chorus:Married him in
April, lost him in
July.
