sonnerie téléphone portable pour Carrie brown

Carrie, darlin', carrie, carrie brown, i cry
If i can't marry carrie brown, believe i'd rather die
Believe i'd rather die, boys, believe i'd rather die

The first time i saw carrie brown
She was so young and fair
A voice like spring rain fallin' down
And sunlight in her hair

I'd never seen her face before
So i asked all around
They said, "her daddy owns a grocery store
And she lives in bristol town"

Carrie, darlin', carrie, carrie brown, i cry
If i can't marry carrie brown, believe i'd rather die
Believe i'd rather die, boys, believe i'd rather die

I laid my last ten dollars down
Though i didn't need a thing
Just to touch sweet carrie brown
When she handed me my change

I hung around till closin' time
I scarce believed my eyes
My darlin' walkin' arm in arm
With a boy named billy wise

Carrie, darlin', carrie, carrie brown, i cry
If i can't marry carrie brown, believe i'd rather die
Believe i'd rather die, boys, believe i'd rather die

I walked around in bristol town
A bitter broken man
A heart that pined for carrie brown
And a pistol in my hand

We met again on state street
Poor billy wise and me
I shot him in virginia
And he died in tennessee

Carrie, darlin', carrie, carrie brown, i cry
If i can't marry carrie brown, believe i'd rather die
Believe i'd rather die, boys, believe i'd rather die

Now i'm down in the bristol jail
And all i do is cry
Cause the jury found me guilty
And the judge says i must die

I'm just a poor young mountain boy
Ain't never been to town
And i've come to ruination
For the love of carrie brown

Carrie, darlin', carrie, carrie brown, i cry
If i can't marry carrie brown, believe i'd rather die
Believe i'd rather die, boys, believe i'd rather die
