A Long Time A-Growin' - Bob Dylan (鲍勃·迪伦)

Written by：Bob Dylan

Oh the trees they do grow tall and the leaves are green

And there's many a day that you an' I have seen

But once I had a true love but now I walk alone

He's a Bonnie lad he's daily growing

Oh father dearest father you've done me great wrong

You've married me to a boy who is much too young

Oh I'm twice twelve an' he's but fourteen

He's a Bonnie lad he's young but he's growing

Oh father dearest father oh ain't it pleased as you

I'll send my male to a school for a year or two

And don't talk of his college cap he'll wear a ribbon

Ball

So that the other girls might know that he's married

One day when I was walking all alone down by the school

Wall

I saw the boys were playing at the bouncing of the ball

An' my own true love was the fairest of them all

He's a Bonnie lad he's daily growing

At the age of fourteen he was a married man

At the age of fifteen the father of a son

At the age of sixteen his grave the grass grew green

Cruel death had put an end to his growing

I'll buy my love a shroud of ornamental ground

And place it on his grave oh the tears come tripling

Down

For once I had a true love but now I have not

But I'll watch his Bonnie son while he's a growing
