歌词
I like your twisted point of view, Mike
Mike,我喜欢你性格中的小偏激
I like your questioning eyebrows

You've made it pretty clear what you like

It's only fair to tell you now
作为交换,我将告诉你我的秘密
that I leave early in the morning

and I won't be back till next year
明年再回来
I see that kiss-me pucker forming

but maybe you should plug it with a beer, cause

Papa was a rodeo - Mama was a rock'n'roll band

I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand
在我还不会走路前,我就学会了弹吉他和玩套绳
Home was anywhere with diesel gas - Love was a trucker's hand

Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand
从不曾为露水之情过多停留
Before you kiss me you should know

The light reflecting off the mirror ball

looks like a thousand swirling eyes

and I'll take you away I'll take that kiss now, but
