歌手:Kris Kristofferson
专辑:《An Evening With Kris Kristofferson》

She would meet me in the morning
On my way down to the river
Waiting patient by the chinaberry tree

her With feet already dusty

>From the pathway to the levy

And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees

pay I'd her no attention

As she tagged along beside me
Trying hard to copy everything I did

But I couldn't keep from smiling

When I'd hear somebody saying
Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid

Even after we grew older
We could still be seen together

As we walked along the levy holding hands

For as surely as the season she was changin' to a woman

And I'd lived enough to call myself a man

And she often lay beside me
In the coolness of the evening

Til' the morning sun was shining on my bed

And at times when she was sleeping
I'd smile when I'd remember

How they use to call us Jody and the kid

Now the world's a little older
And the years have changed the river
Cause there's houses where they didn't used to be

And on Sundays I go walking
Down the pathway to the levy
With another little girl who follows me

And it makes the old folks smile
To see her tag along beside me
Doing little things the way her mama did

But it gets a little lonesome
When I hear somebody sayin'
Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid
