[00:00.00]Stingray、Kenny Rogers?- Coward of the County (In the Style of Kenny Rogers|Karaoke Version)
[00:10.93]Ev'ryone considered him the coward of the county
[00:17.30]He never stood one single time to prove the county wrong
[00:24.10]His mama named him Tommy but folks just called him yellow
[00:30.58]But something always told me they were reading Tommy wrong
[00:37.21]He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison
[00:43.97]Well I looked after Tommy 'cause he was my brother's son
[00:50.27]And I still recall the final words my brother said to Tommy
[00:57.07]Son my life is over but yours is just begun
[01:03.81]Promise me son not to do the things I've done
[01:08.92]Walk away from trouble if you can
[01:14.25]Now it don't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
[01:19.38]I hope you're old enough to understand
[01:24.56]Son you don't have to fight to be a man
[01:30.37]There's someone for ev'ryone Tommy's love was Becky
[01:36.77]In her arms he didn't have to prove he was a man
[01:43.27]One day while he was workin' the Gatlin boys came calling'
[01:49.84]They took turns at Becky there was three of them
[01:56.56]Tommy opened up the door and saw his Becky cryin'
[02:03.41]The torn dress the shattered look was more than he could stand
[02:09.73]He reached above the fireplace and took down his daddy's picture
[02:16.34]As the tears fell on his daddy's face he heard these words again
[02:23.20]Promise me son not to do the things I've done
[02:28.31]Walk away from trouble if you can
[02:33.47]Now it don't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
[02:38.88]I hope you're old enough to understand
[02:43.99]Son you don't have to fight to be a man
[02:49.74]The Gatlin boys just laughed at him
[02:52.07]When he walked into the barroom
[02:56.16]One of them got up and met him halfway 'cross the floor
[03:02.79]Then Tommy turned around they said Hey look ol' yellow's leavin'
[03:09.89]But you coulda heard a pin drop
[03:11.86]When Tommy stopped and locked the door
[03:16.01]Twenty years of crawlin' was bottled up inside him
[03:22.37]He wasn't holding' nothing back he let 'em have it all
[03:28.94]When Tommy left the barroom not a Gatlin boy was standing
[03:35.40]He said This one's for Becky as he watched the last one fall
[03:41.00]And I heard him say
[03:42.22]I promised you Dad not to do the things you've done
[03:47.63]I'll walk away from trouble if I can
[03:52.85]Now please don't think I'm weak I couldn't turn the other cheek
[03:58.22]And papa I sure hope you understand
[04:03.48]Sometimes you gotta fight when you're a man
[04:09.11]Ev'ryone considered him the coward of the county
