歌曲歌词
There is a young cowboy
He lives on the range His horse
And his cattle are his only companions
He works in the saddle
And he sleeps in the canyons
Waiting for summer
His pastures to change
And as the moon rises
He sits by his fire
Thinking about women
And glasses of beer
And closing his eyes
As the doggies retire
He sings out a song which is soft
But it's clear
As if maybe someone could hear
Goodnight you moon light ladies
Rock-a-bye sweet baby James
Deep greens and blues
Are the colors I choose
Won't you let me go down
In my dreams
And rock-a-bye sweet baby James
Now the first of December
Was covered with snow
And so was the turnpike
From Stockbridge to Boston
Though the Berkshires seemed dreamlike
On account of that frosting
With ten miles behind me
And ten thousand more to go
There's a song that they sing
When they take to the highway
A song that they sing
When they take to the sea
A song that they sing
Of their home in the sky
Maybe you can believe it
If it helps you to sleep
But singing works just fine for me
So goodnight you moon light ladies
Rock-a-bye sweet baby James
Deep greens and blues
Are the colors I choose
Won't you let me go down in my dreams
And rock-a-bye sweet baby James
