Текст песни Cold, Cold Earth

(Allison Moorer)

The night was hot and steamy

And crickets played their tune

Everyone was sleeping

Under an August moon

Except one man that sat awake

Slowly going mad

Regretting that he'd thrown away

The only love he had

A slave to the bottle

He'd driven his family to leave

A wife and two daughters

He treated so terribly

Drunk with grief and loneliness

He wasn't thinking straightAllison Moorer - Cold, Cold Earth - http://ru.motolyrics.com/allison-moorer/cold-cold-earth-lyrics.html

He knew he couldn't live unless

They pardoned his mistakes

He went into the city

To try to make amends

Asked his love for pity

But she would not give in

Overwhelmed with sadness

He reached for his gun

And took her life along with his

Before the morning sun

Now they are lying

In the cold, cold earth

Such a sad, sad story

Such a sad, sad world
