My Rifle, My Pony And Me (ライフルと愛馬 歌詞)
The sun is sinking in the west
The cattle go down to the stream
The redwing settles in the nest
It's time for a cowboy to dream
Purple light in the canyons
That's where I long to be
With my three good companions
Just my rifle, pony and me
Gonna hang my sombrero
On the limb of a tree
Coming home sweetheart darling
Just my rifle, pony and me
Just my rifle, my pony and me
(Whippoorwill in the willow Sings a sweet melody Riding to Amarillo)
Just my rifle, pony and me
No more cows (no more cows) to be roping (to be roping)
No more strays will I see
Round the bend (round the bend) she'll be waiting (she'll be waiting)
For my rifle, pony and me
For my rifle, my pony and me
Rio Bravo(リオ・ブラボー) ライフルと愛馬 / シンディ
Get Along Home Cindy Cindy(シンディ 歌詞)
I wish I was a apple hangin' in a tree
And everytime my sweetheart passed
She'd take a bite off me
She told me that she loved me
She called me sugar plum
She threw her arms around me
I thought my time had come
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
I'll marry you sometime
I wish I had a needle
As fine as I could sew
I'd sew her in my pocket
And down the road I go
Cindy hugged and kissed me
She wrung her hands and cried
Swore I was the prettiest thing
That ever lived or died
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
I'll marry you sometime
リオ・ブラボーは、パンパンと(笑)拳銃を撃ち合う映画だが、上の歌は何回聴いてもいいね。飲んだくれ役のディーン・マーティン(頭の写真)の歌は上手いし、飛行機事故で45歳の若さで旅っ立ったリッキー・ネルソンの歌声は軽快だ。なにせハーモニカで合いの手(?)を入れるウォルター・ブレナン(Walter Brennan)が最高だね。彼、アカデミー助演男優賞を3回も受賞してるんだって!!! そう言えば、大御所ジョン・ウェインさんの歌って聞いたことないね。彼のような人を存在感があると言うんだろう。
歌詞を検索していたらシンディは、C F G7の3コードで歌えるんだ。ギターを弾きたくなった。もう10年くらい前に放ったもんな〜(泣)。
