letra de the boston burglar - fiddlin' john carson
i’s borned and raised in boston
a city you all knew well
brought up by honest parents-
the truth to you i’ll tell-
brought up by honest parents
both kind and tenderly
till i became a sporting man
at the age of twenty-three
now my character was taken
and i was placed in jail;
my friends all said there is no need
to take me out on bail
there stood my aged father
a-pleading at the bar
likewise my aged mother
a-tearing out her hair-
a-tearing out those old grey locks
the tears came trinkling down
“oh, son, dear son, what have you done?
you’re off for cairo town!”
i was placed on board of an eastbound train
one cold december day
every station we passed through
i heard those people say
“there goes a boston burglar;
in strong irons he’ll be bound;
for some great crime that he has done
he’s off for cairo town.”
the jury found me guilty
the clerk, he wrote it down
the judge he passed a sentence on me:
i’m off for cairo town
