When Papa Played The Dobro — текст песни (Johnny Cash)

My papa was a hobo when they delivered me
We didn`t have a doctor cause he couldn`t pay the fee
But when the goin` got too bad to ease his misery
Papa played the dobro this a way and he`d go
[ dobro ]
When company would come around he kept the dobro hid
He knew he couldn`t play the way the other players did
Why the guitar`s resonator was a gallon bucket lid
But papa played the dobro this a way and he`d go
[ dobro ]
Well now that papa`s gone away it`s hanging by the flue
The top of it`s rusted and the strings`re rusty too
It won`t ever sound the way that it did when it was new
When papa played the dobro this a way and he`d go
[ dobro ]
