I can't remember when he weren't around

Well that old fellow did a heap of work

Spent his whole life walking plowed ground

He had a one-room shack not far from us
他在离我们不远的地方有一间只有一间房的小房子
And well we was about as poor as him

He had one old mule he called Midnight

And I'd trailed along after them

And I'd come along near behind

A-bustin' up clods with my own bare feet

That sun'd get high and that mule would work

Till old Rivers'd final say Whoa

And talk about a place he was gonna go

He'd say one of these days

Just sittin' here now on this new-plowed earth

Trying to find me a little shade
