When The Work's All Done This Fall (当作品的全部完成在今年秋天) (Live) - Johnny Bond
A group of jolly cowboys
Discussing plans at ease
Said one I'll tell you something boys
If you will listen please
I am an old cow puncher
And here I'm dressed in rags
I used to be a tough one
And go on great big jags
Now I got a home boys
And a good one you all know
Though I haven't seen it since
Long long ago
I'm going back to Dixie
Once more to see them all
I am going to see my mother
When the work's all done this fall
That very night the cowboy went out
To stand his guard
The night was dark and cloudy
And storming very hard
The cattle they got frightened
And rushed in wild stampede
The cowboy tried to hit them
While riding at full speed
While riding in the darkness
So loudly did he shout
I gave his best to head them
And turn the herd about
His saddle horse did stumble
And on him he did fall
He'll not see his mother
When the work's all done this fall
Fred you take my saddle
Jim you take my bed
Johnny take my pistol
After I am dead
Think me so kindly
When you look upon them all
I'll not see my mother
When the work's all done this fall
Send my Mother my wages
The wages I have earned
Cause I am afraid boys
My last steer I have turned
I'm going to a new range
I hear my Master's call
I'll not see my mother
When the work's all done this fall
Charlie was buried at sunrise
No tombstone at his head
Nothing but a little board
And this is what it said
Poor Charlie died at daybreak
He died from a fall
And he'll not see his mother
When the work's all done this fall
