📝 歌词预览

[00:04]In the southern part of Texas
[00:06]In the town of San Antone
[00:08]There's a fortress all in ruins that the ****s have overgrown
[00:13]You may look in vain for crosses and you'll never see a-one
[00:18]But sometimes between the setting and the rising of the sun
[00:22]You can hear a ghostly bugle
[00:24]As the men go marching by
[00:26]You can hear them as they answer
[00:29]To that roll call in the sky.
[00:32]Colonel Travis, Davy Crockett, and a hundred eighty more
[00:36]Captain ****inson, Jim Bowie
[00:39]Present and accounted for.
[00:42]Back in 1836, Houston said to Travis
[00:46]"Get some volunteers and go
[00:49]Fortify the Alamo."
[00:50]Well the men came from Texas
[00:52]And from old Tennessee
[00:55]And they joined up with Travis
[00:57]Just to fight for the right to be free.
[01:00]Indian scouts with squirrel guns
[01:03]Men with muzzle-loaders
[01:05]Stood together, heel and toe
[01:07]To defend the Alamo.
[01:09]"You may ne'er see your loved ones,"
[01:11]Travis told them that day
[01:13]"Those who want to can leave now
[01:15]Those who fight to the death let 'em stay."
[01:19]In the sand he drew a line
[01:21]With his army sabre
[01:23]Out of a hundred eighty five
[01:25]Not a soldier crossed the line
[01:27]With his banners a-dancin'
[01:29]In the dawn's golden light
[01:32]Santa Anna came prancing
[01:34]On a horse that was black as the night.
[01:37]Sent an officer to tell
[01:39]Travis to surrender
[01:41]Travis answered with a shell
[01:44]And a rousing rebel yell
[01:46]Santa Anna turned scarlet
[01:48]"Play deguello!" he roared
[01:50]"I will show them no quarter
[01:52]Every one will be put to the sword!"
[01:56]One hundred and eighty five
[01:58]Holding back five thousand
[02:00]Five days, six days, eight days, ten
[02:02]Travis held and held again
[02:04]Then he sent for replacements
[02:06]For his wounded and lame
[02:08]But the troops that were coming
[02:10]Never came, never came, never came...
[02:14]Twice he charged and blew recall
[02:16]On the fatal third time
[02:18]Santa Anna breached the wall
[02:21]And he killed 'em, one and all
[02:23]Now the bugles are silent
[02:25]And there's rust on each sword
[02:27]And the small band of soldiers...
[02:30]Lie asleep in the arms of the Lord...
[02:42]In the southern part of Texas
[02:45]Near the town of San Antone
[02:47]Like a statue on his pinto rides a cowboy all alone
[02:52]And he sees the cattle grazing where a century before
[02:55]Santa Anna's guns were blazing and the cannons used to roar
[03:01]And his eyes turn sorta misty
[03:03]And his heart begins to glow
[03:05]And he takes his hat off slowly...
[03:09]To the men of Alamo.
[03:14]To the thirteen days of glory
[03:20]At the siege of Alamo...
