Bảng hợp âm và lời bài hát Old Black Kettle – Dolly Parton
Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch
Well, I remember when I was just little
ch]C[/ch
Mama used to cook in an old black kettle
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
On an old wood stove she'd had since she was wed
ch]G[/ch
Well, the oven door was sprung a little bit
ch]C[/ch
So we propped it up with a fork and stick
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
But that didn't matter 'cause Mama kept us fed
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch
My mama and daddy must have loved each other
ch]C[/ch
'Cause I had 11 sisters and brothers
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the girls worked just as hard as the boys did
ch]G[/ch
There was corn to hoe then we'd go hoe it
ch]C[/ch
We might have been poor but we didn't know it
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
We'd heard that word but we didn't know what it meant
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Oh, we used to have such a good life
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the days that I knew then are the happiest I've known
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And oh, didn't we have such a good time
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And it's sad to think the old black kettle's gone
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch
Well, there was nothing that pleased us any better
ch]D[/ch
Than when we got an occasional letter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
From kinfolks living up north in some big town
ch]A[/ch
We'd think of all the games we'd play
ch]D[/ch
And we just couldn't hardly wait
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
When our city cousins said they's a-coming down
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch
Now Mama's done away with the old black kettle
ch]D[/ch
She used to cook in when I was just little
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And the door ain't sprung on her electric range
ch]A[/ch
That little farm and home we had
ch]D[/ch
It ain't there no more and that's too bad
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Folks are doin' away with the simple things
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Oh, we used to have such a good life
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And the days that I knew then are the happiest I've known
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And oh, didn't we have such a good time
ch]E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And it's sad to think the old black kettle's gone
Outro
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Now I just mean to say the simple things are gone
ch]A[/ch
The old black kettle's gone
