[00:00.00]	作词 : Traditional
[00:03.30]	well, I lived in a town
[00:05.86]	way down south
[00:09.73]	by the name of Owensboro
[00:15.23]
[00:16.98]	and I worked in a mill
[00:20.92]	with the rest of the ＂trash＂
[00:24.92]	as we're often called
[00:29.24]	as you know
[00:31.36]
[00:32.73]	well we rise up early
[00:35.11]
[00:37.42]	in the morning
[00:38.61]
[00:41.11]	and we work all day real hard
[00:46.61]
[00:48.36]	to buy our little meat and bread
[00:54.17]
[00:56.73]	buy sugar, tea, and lard
[01:01.92]
[01:36.38]	well, our children
[01:40.32]	grow up unlearned
[01:44.44]	with no time to go to school
[01:49.57]
[01:51.82]	almost before they learn to walk
[01:57.32]
[02:00.07]	they learn to spin
[02:02.07]
[02:03.82]	and to spoon
[02:05.13]
[02:38.44]	well, the folks in town
[02:42.38]	they dress so fine
[02:46.82]	and spend their money free
[02:53.57]	but they would hardly look
[02:57.76]	at a factory hand
[03:01.88]	who dresses like you or me
[03:09.51]	would you let them wear
[03:12.94]	their watches fine
[03:16.57]	let them wear their gems
[03:20.82]	and pearly strings
[03:24.38]	but when that day of judgement comes
[03:32.76]	they'll have to share
[03:37.07]	their pretty things
[03:39.95]	but when that day
[03:44.20]	of judgement comes
[03:48.26]	they'll have to share
[03:52.44]	their pretty things
