[00:02.13]
[00:06.38] Well my father always meant the world to me
[00:12.81] So I stood up,split his lip,and took his keys
[00:19.35] Because the bottle was his mistress
[00:22.61] and I came to understand
[00:25.93] Oh,that sometimes you've gotta leave to be a man
[00:30.70]
[00:32.60] So I took to sweeping floors and stacking wood
[00:39.19] At the Union Valley Mill so my brother could
[00:45.78] Live without the weight of wanting
[00:48.75] Didn't mind these tired hands
[00:51.63] 'Cause I knew sometimes you gotta work to be a man
[00:57.72]
[01:02.07] In that quaried stone
[01:05.15] Every letter home
[01:08.36] Another story,another lessen that he led
[01:14.90] Standing here again
[01:18.21] Reminds me who I am
[01:21.58] In the quiet,I still hear the words he said
[01:26.00]
[01:28.07] If it's easy,you know it ain't right
[01:34.49] It ain't easy,but living worth the fight
[01:38.71]
[01:44.86] I knew at 18 it was time to go to war
[01:51.39] I was missing home when my feet hit the shore
[01:57.98] Oh,but I'm not one for running
[02:01.04] At the call of Uncle Sam
[02:04.36] I knew sometimes you gotta fight to be a man
[02:08.54]
[02:11.01] In that quaried stone
[02:14.17] Every letter home
[02:17.49] Another story,another lessen that he led
[02:24.02] Standing here again
[02:27.35] Reminds me who I am
[02:30.41] In the quiet,I still hear the words he said
[02:34.73]
[02:37.03] If it's easy,you know it ain't right
[02:43.61] It ain't easy,but living worth the fight
[02:55.17]
[02:50.76] Whahahome Whahahome
[02:57.12] Awehome Awehome
[03:02.11]
[03:03.47] Whahahome Whahahome
[03:10.38] Awehome Awehome
[03:13.95]
[03:17.13] In a brokendown car,with seven mouths to feed
[03:23.67] There were winters there that pushed me to my knees
[03:30.07] There were fathers who abandoned
[03:33.61] Cowards who just ran
[03:36.72] Oh,but sometimes you gotta stay to be a man
[03:41.10]
歌词翻译
[00:06.38] 父亲于我而言就是我的整个世界
[00:12.81] 所以我站起身为他擦嘴,拿起钥匙
[00:19.35] 因为他总是放不下酒瓶
[00:22.61] 而我才渐渐明白
[00:25.93] 有时候你不得不像一个男子汉那样成熟
[00:32.60] 所以我自食其力开始打扫和砍柴
[00:39.19] 好让我在米尔山谷的弟弟能够
[00:45.78] 减少一点生活上的负担
[00:48.75] 从不在乎劳累的双手
[00:51.63] 因为我知道有时候你得像男子汉一样劳作
[01:02.07] 在那个矿场之中
[01:05.15] 寄回家的每封信
[01:08.36] 又一段故事,他的又一个教训
[01:14.90] 再一次站在了这里
[01:18.21] 让我记起自己的身份
[01:21.58] 在平静中,我依旧听到他说过的字句
[01:28.07] 要是来之过易,你知那并不正常
[01:34.49] 确是来之不易,但生活值得去打拼
[01:44.86] 到了18岁我知自己该是时候去参军
[01:51.39] 当我的双脚踏上彼岸,我开始对家园有了思念
[01:57.98] 哦,但我不会轻易地逃跑
[02:01.04] 顺应山姆大叔的号召
[02:04.36] 我知道有时候你要像一个男人般去拼搏
[02:11.01] 在那个矿场之中
[02:14.17] 寄回家的每封信
[02:17.49] 又一段故事,他的又一个教训
[02:24.02] 再一次站在了这里
[02:27.35] 让我记起自己的身份
[02:30.41] 在平静中,我依旧听到他说过的字句
[02:37.03] 要是来之过易,你知那并不正常
[02:43.61] 确是来之不易,但生活值得去打拼
[02:50.76]
[02:57.12]
[03:03.47]
[03:10.38]
[03:17.13] 在一辆破旧的车里,一家七口等着我养育
[03:23.67] 还有数个寒冬的逼迫让我无力承受
[03:30.07] 有一些父亲选择了逃避
[03:33.61] 成为逃避的懦夫
[03:36.72] 哦,但有时你得坚持成为一个男子汉
