歌词
I was sittin' there sellin' turnips on a flatbed truck
我坐在一辆平板卡车上卖萝卜
Crunchin' on a pork rind when she pulled up
当她停车的时候，我正把一块脆猪肉咬得嘎吱响
她一定在思考，这就是乡巴佬待的地方
She had to be thinkin' "This is where Rednecks come from"
她的车牌上有好莱坞的记号
她迷路了，正在寻找州际公路
She had Hollywood written on her license plate
她需要正确的方向而我是个靠谱的指路人
我告诉她绕过警示灯会出现一条路
She was lost and lookin' for the interstate
那儿有一家可口可乐标志的乡村小商店
你必须停下来问贝尔小姐要一些甜茶
Needin' directions and I was the man for the job
然后左拐你就会来到那条州际公路
但是右拐的话你绕了一圈还是会回到我身边
I told her way up yonder past the caution light
我坐在那儿回想着她俏丽的脸孔
为了没问出她的芳名而跟自己较劲
There's a little country store with an old Coke sign
我扔掉我的帽子想着“你这个坠入爱河的白痴”
我知道我的老福特车不可能追上她
You gotta stop in and ask Miss Bell for some of her sweet tea
她也许无论如何都不会喜欢我
所以我看着她消失在一片飞扬的尘土中
Then a left will take you to the interstate
我告诉她绕过警示灯会出现一条路
那儿有一家可口可乐标志的乡村小商店
But a right will bring you right back here to me
你必须停下来问贝尔小姐要一些甜茶
然后左拐你就会来到那条州际公路
I was sittin' there thinkin' 'bout her pretty face
但是右拐的话你绕了一圈还是会回到我身边
这是乔治热衷的戏弄我的把戏吗
Kickin' myself for not catchin' her name
或是这一切只是我的幻想吗
这个我梦想中的女人又回到了我的身边
I threw my hat and thought' "You fool' that could've been love"
她出现在警示灯旁的那条路上
我不知为何但确信冥冥中自有天意
I knew my old Ford couldn't run her down
当她停下来问贝尔小姐要一些甜茶
妈妈给了她一大杯并且直接将她送回我身边
She probably didn't like me anyhow
感谢上帝啊 为了这绝妙的方向和这车萝卜青菜
去做点对的事
So I watched her disappear in a cloud of dust.
I told her way up yonder past the caution light
There's a little country store with an old Coke sign
You gotta stop in and ask Miss Bell for some of her sweet tea
Then a left will take you to the interstate
But a right will bring you right back here to me
Is this Georgia heat playin' tricks on me
Or am I really seein' what I think I see
The woman of my dreams comin' back to me
She went way up yonder past the caution light
Don't know why' but somethin' felt right
When she stopped in and asked Miss Bell for some of her sweet tea
Mama gave her a big 'ol glass and sent her right back here to me
Thank God for good directions:and turnip greens
Doin Somethin Right
