[00:00.000] 作曲 : Rory Lee Feek

[00:10.00]I'm writing this letter to my darling from high on a hill

[00:17.77]We've been marching ten days and were just outside Hopkinsville

[00:25.28]It's been snowing all night and we ain't got no more kerosene

[00:32.95]It's colder than hell, hope you're doing well, Josephine

[00:40.96]

[00:45.21]There's a fever in camp and our boys are too sick to fight

[00:53.09]We done lost old Calvin, Beaver wont make it through the night

[01:00.76]I overheard the captain say it's the worst has ever seen

[01:08.55]I'm losing some weight but I'm still standing up straight, Josephine

[01:14.87]

[01:16.62]Tell my children I miss them and wish I could kiss them once more

[01:24.54]Bet they've grown a foot since they waved me goodbye at the door

[01:30.83]Tell mama and daddy I'm alright and just one more thing

[01:37.56]I love you, I love you, I love you, Josephine

[01:45.34]

[01:51.30]There's three thousand union troops camped at the river below

[01:58.82]Six hundreds of us, least there was two nights ago

[02:06.71]When Erwin deserted they hung him down by the tree

[02:14.58]God I'm so scared, keep me in your prayers, Josephine

[02:20.60]

[02:22.25]Well the orders come down, we'll attack tonight at nightfall

[02:29.90]If we can stop them right here we can win this war once and for all

[02:38.43]You know, I killed a union boy last week, bet he was'nt fourteen

[02:45.74]He looked just like our son, forgive me for what I've done, Josephine

[02:51.92]

[02:53.89]Tell my children I miss them and wish I could kiss them once more

[03:01.57]Bet they've grown a foot since they waved me goodbye at the door

[03:08.14]Tell mama and daddy I'm alright and just one more thing

[03:14.40]I love you, I love you, I love you, Josephine

[03:22.22]

[03:27.95]And lastly my darling, in case I should be killed

[03:35.08]Don't grieve me too long, promise me that you will

[03:43.66]Marry another, don't let him treat our babies mean

[03:51.22]When he's holding you, would you think of me too, Josephine?

[03:57.50]

[03:58.96]Tell my babies I miss them and wish I could kiss them once more

[04:06.90]Bet they've grown a foot since they waved me goodbye at the door

[04:13.24]Tell mama and daddy I'm alright and just one more thing

[04:20.47]I love you, I love you, I love you, Josephine

[04:26.75]

[04:28.09]I love you, I love you, I love you, Josephine
