[00:00.00]	作词 : Clark
[00:28.83]	My father had a Randall knife
[00:31.33]	My mother gave it to him
[00:35.02]	When he went off to WWII
[00:37.71]	To save us all from ruin
[00:43.51]	If you've ever held a Randall knife
[00:46.33]	Then you know my father well
[00:50.08]	If a better blade was ever made
[00:52.76]	It was probably forged in hell
[00:59.51]	My father was a good man
[01:02.45]	A lawyer by his trade
[01:06.08]	And only once did I ever see
[01:08.26]	Him misuse the blade
[01:15.25]	It almost cut his thumb off
[01:17.81]	When he took it for a tool
[01:21.50]	The knife was made for darker things
[01:24.75]	And you could not bend the rules
[01:30.79]	He let me take it camping once
[01:33.85]	On a Boy Scout jamboree
[01:34.85]	And I broke a half an inch off
[01:40.29]	Trying to stick it in a tree
[01:47.48]	I hid it from him for a while
[01:49.17]	But the knife and he were one
[01:53.22]	He put it in his bottom drawer
[01:54.91]	Without a hard word one
[01:58.53]	There it slept and there it stayed
[02:05.06]	For twenty some odd years
[02:09.04]	Sort of like Excalibur
[02:11.54]	Except waiting for a tear
[02:21.91]
[02:48.46]	My father died when I was forty
[02:49.90]	And I couldn't find a way to cry
[02:52.97]	Not because I didn't love him
[02:56.77]	Not because he didn't try
[03:00.60]	I'd cried for every lesser thing
[03:05.74]	Whiskey, pain and beauty
[03:07.49]	But he deserved a better tear
[03:13.05]	And I was not quite ready
[03:23.37]	So we took his ashed out to sea
[03:24.82]	And poured 'em off the stern
[03:26.31]	And threw the roses in the wake
[03:31.25]	Of everything we'd learned
[03:36.63]	When we got back to the house
[03:40.00]	They asked me what I wanted
[03:43.51]	Not the lawbooks not the watch
[03:45.75]	I need the things he's haunted
[03:53.00]	My hand burned for the Randall knife
[03:55.88]	There in the bottom drawer
[04:01.32]	And I found a tear for my father's life
[04:02.94]	And all that it stood for
