The Arkansas Traveler
Oh, once upon a time in Arkansas, An old man sat in his little cabin door And fiddled at a tune that he liked to hear, A jolly old tune that he played by ear. It was raining hard, but the fiddler didn't care, He sawed away at the popular air, Tho' his rooftree leaked like a waterfall, That didn't seem to bother the man at all.
A traveler was riding by that day, And stopped to hear him a-practicing away; The cabin was a-float and his feet were wet, But still the old man didn't seem to fret. So the stranger said 'Now the way it seems to me,' もっと沢山の歌詞は ※ Mojim.com You'd better mend your roof,' said he. But the old man said as he played away, 'I couldn't mend it now, it's a rainy day.'
The traveler replied, 'That's all quite true, But this, I think, is the thing to do; Get busy on a day that is fair and bright, Then patch the old roof till it's good and tight.' But the old man kept on a-playing at his reel, And tapped the ground with his leathery heel. 'Get along,' said he, 'for you give me a pain; My cabin never leaks when it doesn't rain.'
