Текст пісні
There once was A time
In a little town
A man on a Horse
Was riding the main street down
His whole story to tell
Would take half a life
So let me sing
About a man and his knife
When he was a little boy
Somewhere down in Tennessee
He had no home and had no toy
And had no shoes on his feet
Working hard all day and night
Carrying goods from side to side
Oh there came a man
With long black hair
He said "young man do you
Come with me and I will care
About your food your bed and work
But never rob my face in dirt"
And our young man
Said yes to all
But he didn't know
Where he would go
So he went away
He'll never be back again
Some days later
He finally arrived
In a Little shelter
The man didn't lie
The boy fell asleep
And dreamed very deep
About an angel
Shining so bright
Don't trust this man
And you'll be alright
And the next morning
He stole away
