Johnny Cash - White Girl - Текст песни

I am stunned and I am broken and my head is in my hand 

For she who said she love me will not wed an Indian man 

My Gods who were wild ridden stand quiet by my side 

For although I loved her she would not be my bride 

Oh goodbye softly sweet one it was splended while it ran 

Goodbye my bitter white girl I'll forget you if I can 

She came up to the pueblo with her bright blonde hair 

They told me not to love her but I did not care 

She took me to her parties she carried me around 

And I was a proud one the tallest man in town 

For I found great wonder all wrapped in brilliant dreams 

I held her strong but gentle as kings have held their queens 

I learned to drink strong whiskey as she took me here and there 

Until life without my whiskey I could not bear 

Oh goodbye softly sweet one... 

[ guitar ] 

Well when she came to leave me she took me by the arm 

And she said she loved me and would not do me harm 

But she would not marry not an Indian she said 

She thanked me for my offer and I wished that I was dead 

Now I'm back among my people and they are kind to me 

Although I'm sad with staggers when I drink that tough whiskey 

For I've been a white girl's pet a captive Indian 

Shown off and discarded just a drunk who might have been 

Oh goodbye softly sweet one... 

Goodbye softly sweet one...
