专辑 | The Ballad Of Sally Rose |
作词 : Harris, Kennerley | |
Her mama picked him up in south Minnesota | |
He promised her the world but they never got that far | |
For he was last seen in that '59 DeSota | |
When Sally was born in the black hills of Dakota. | |
She was washed in the blood of the dying Sioux nation | |
Raised with a proud but a wandering heart | |
And she knew that her roots were in the old reservation | |
But she had stars in her eyes and greater expectations. | |
No rings on her fingers, no bells on her toes | |
With bugs on her headlights and runs in her hose | |
Through the valley of the shadow of Roosevelt's nose | |
Adios South Dakota, adios Sally Rose. | |
They've got a national monument carved out of stone | |
On the side of a mountain where her forefathers roamed | |
Playin' cowboys and Indians right under the nose | |
Of Theodore Roosevelt and the sweet Sally Rose. | |
So she left Rapid City in the blue moonlight hour | |
With her eye on the highway and her foot on the floor | |
And turnin' the dial, she was pulled by the power | |
Of the word coming out of that broadcasting tower. | |
No rings on her fingers, no bells on her toes | |
With bugs on her headlights and runs in her hose | |
Through the valley of the shadow of Roosevelt's nose | |
Adios South Dakota, adios Sally Rose... |
