    Hello open mic. Greetings and best wishes to all our wonderful musicians, and lovers of music. I'm Stefanovah and I'm here once again for Hive Open Mic... It's week 202 and the theme that's been chosen by @henzeru is Telling a story. There have been many great entries and I hope mine makes a good addition to the collection.

    The song i've done a cover of for this theme is Coward of the county by Kenny Rogers cos it does just what the theme says, tells a story. It's the story of a young man popularly known as yellow, who everyone considered a coward. You just gotta listen to the story and you'll find out how wrong they were about him... The song is a bit technical as the 3 verses are on different keys, but I really enjoyed doing it as it's country music and I find it to be unique.

    Lyrics

    Everyone considered him the coward of the county
    He'd never stood one single time to prove the county wrong
    His mama named him Tommy, but folks just called him Yellow
    But something always told me, they were reading Tommy wrong

    He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison
    I looked after Tommy, 'cause he was my brother's son
    I still recall the final words my brother said to Tommy
    "Son, my life is over, but yours has just begun"

    "Promise me, son, not to do the things I've done
    Walk away from trouble if you can
    Now it won't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
    I hope you're old enough to understand
    Son, you don't have to fight to be a man"

    La canción de la que hice una versión para este tema es Coward of the County de Kenny Rogers porque hace exactamente lo que dice el tema: cuenta una historia. Es la historia de un joven conocido popularmente como Amarillo, a quien todos consideraban un cobarde. Sólo tienes que escuchar la historia y descubrirás lo equivocados que estaban acerca de él... La canción es un poco técnica ya que los 3 versos están en tonos diferentes, pero realmente disfruté hacerlo ya que es música country y encuentro que ser único.

    Letra

    Todos lo consideraban el cobarde del condado.
    Nunca se había presentado ni una sola vez para demostrarle al condado que estaba equivocado.
    Su mamá lo llamaba Tommy, pero la gente simplemente lo llamaba Amarillo.
    Pero algo siempre me decía que estaban interpretando mal a Tommy.

    Sólo tenía diez años cuando su papá murió en prisión.
    Cuidé a Tommy, porque era el hijo de mi hermano.
    Todavía recuerdo las últimas palabras que mi hermano le dijo a Tommy:
    "Hijo, mi vida terminó, pero la tuya acaba de comenzar".

    Prométeme, hijo, no hacer las cosas que he hecho.
    Aléjate de los problemas si puedes.
    Ahora no significará que seas débil si pones la otra mejilla.
    Espero que tengas edad suficiente para entender.
    Hijo, no lo haces. No tienes que luchar para ser un hombre.
