The Masterpiece - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)
There was an old stone-cutter
Who lived in a cabin on the mountain side
And the old stone-cutter
Knew it won't be long before he died
And all around his cabin were statues the man had made
Statues that the buyers said were all of a mediocre grade
With his calloused hands he lit
A lamp and laid down his head on his handmade table
And he softly whispered Lord
I'm old and shaky and I'm hardly able
But give me strenght and wisdom
And give me a week at least
And I'll climb up to the top
Of this mountain and chisel out a masterpiece
The very next morning he felt new strenght
And he took his brand
New hammer and the sharpest chisel
He began to climb the mountain
His old feet slipping in the freezing dizzle
When he finally reached the
Top he shouted to a world that didn't hear
I'll carve my masterpiece out of this marble boulder here
So the hammer beat the
Chisel and he hammered till an image grew
Then he stopped to look it
Over to appraise his work when he was through
It was a boy carrying a crippled
Boy and the old man said it isn't my masterpiece
I'll call it charity and then a masterpiece of mine will be
So the hammer beat the chisel
Til another immage in a marbel grew
Then the wind began to blowing
And he sat and rested when he was through
It was the image of a mother holding her child
He said this is love as the world would know
But it isn't my masterpiece and he began again as it began to snow
The hammer beat the chisel as
The snow fell harder and the wind grew and grew
He fell to his knees holding a
Stone and he threw down his hammer and his chisel too
He lay frozen face down in
The snow but one hand was held for the world to see
Cut in the marble was his
Masterpice three neatly carved letters G O D
