歌曲歌詞

Caleb Meyer - Gillian Welch

Written by：T BONE BURNETT

Caleb Meyer he lived alone in them hollarin' pines

And he made a little whiskey for himself

Said it helped to pass the time

Long one evening in back of my house

Caleb came around

And he called my name 'til I went out

With no one else around

Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna wear them rattlin' chains

But when I go to sleep at night

Don't you call my name

Where's your husband Nellie Kane

Where's your darlin' gone

Did he go on down off the mountain side

And leave you all alone

Yes my husband's gone to Bowlin' Green

To do some business there

Then Caleb threw that bottle down

And grabbed me by my hair

Caleb Meyer your ghost is gonna wear them rattlin' chains

But when I go to sleep at night

Don't you call my name

He threw me in the needle bed

Across my dress he lay

He held my hands above my head

And I commenced to pray

I cried my God I am your child

Send your angels down

Then feelin' with my fingertips

The bottle neck I found
