[00:00.000]Night Rider's Lament - Chris Ledoux (克里斯-勒多克斯)
[00:40.477]While I was out
[00:43.008]A ridin'
[00:45.080]The grave yard shift midnight till dawn
[00:49.977]The moon was as bright as a readin' light
[00:54.368]For a letter from an old friend back home
[00:59.937]And he asked me
[01:01.429]Why do you ride for your money
[01:06.012]Why do you rope for short pay
[01:10.281]You ain't a gettin' nowhere and you're losin' your share
[01:18.638]You must have gone crazy out there
[01:25.208]Tells me last night he run on to Jenny
[01:30.083]She's married and has a good life
[01:34.377]Boy you sure missed the track when you never come back
[01:38.746]She's the perfect professional's wife
[01:44.385]And she asked him
[01:45.916]Why does he ride for his money
[01:50.458]Why does he rope for short pay
[01:54.698]He ain't a gettin' nowhere and he's losin' his share
[02:02.837]Well he must've gone crazy out there
[02:08.756]But they ain't never seen the northern lights
[02:14.129]They've never seen a hawk on the wing
[02:18.706]They've never seen spring at the great divide
[02:26.852]They've never heard ole camp cookie sing
[02:33.485]Well I read up the last of my letter
[02:38.242]Tore off the stamp for black Jim
[02:42.642]Bill he rode up to relieve me
[02:46.656]He just looked at my letter and grinned
[02:52.099]He said you know I wonder
[02:53.764]Why do they ride for their money
[02:58.391]Why do they ride for short pay
[03:02.189]They ain't a gettin' nowhere and they're loosin' their share
[03:10.832]They all must be crazy back there
[03:16.394]'Cause They ain't never seen the northern lights
[03:21.827]They've never seen a hawk on the wing
[03:26.364]They've never seen spring hit the great divide
[03:34.545]They've never heard ole camp cookie sing
