歌词
Your granddad didn't teach me much but what he taught me works
你祖父教予我的虽少但很有用
So I'll show all of that to you plus more of what I've learned
我将倾我所有来告诉你
'Mongst the gamblers and the thieves and all those drifters on the road
因路上恶人混杂
I'd prefer you find polite people but just in case you don't
所以我希望你能寻到有教养的人 但以防万一——
千万别和与城市同名的男人玩桌球
Don't play pool with a man named after a city
每天至少睡十二小时
Always try to get at least twelve hours of sleep
别错失一手的好牌 尽可能多与你的母亲联系
Don't split a winning hand, call your mother whenever you can
不管你有多么开心 照我说的做 别去学你爸我
And no matter how much fun it looks to you, do as I say, not as I do
我很希望我是个更好的人 这样我就能更正确的引导你
但至少我告诉你的 会帮助你在这个世界立足
I wish I was a better man so I could teach you right
所以 即使你永远，永远不听我的
But these things that I'm telling you, they'll help you to survive
也请在离开时将这一小部分的我一同带走
So even if you never, ever listen as I talk
切记 不与以城市命名的人打台球
Please take this little piece of me with you when you fly off
每天睡够十二小时
别与胜利失之交臂 常与你的母亲沟通
Don't play pool with a man named after a city
无论如何 照我说的做
Always try to get at least twelve hours of sleep
希望你不会跟我一个下场 但我猜你可能会更糟
Don't split a winning hand, call your mother whenever you can
那条蜿蜒曲折的道路给了我远超自己应得的报酬
And no matter how much fun it looks to you, do as I say, not as I do
但如果你决定需要天空诅咒这片肮脏的大地
我会在这里接回无论何时归来的你
I hope you don't end up like me, but guess it could be worse
远离那些男人
That long and broken winding road paid me more than I'm worth
保证良好的睡眠
But if you decide you need the sky and curse this filthy ground
把握每一个成功 并向你母亲报喜
I'll be right here to catch you if you ever come back down
别学我 去走我为你指出的那条路
何时何地 以上 切记一定
Don't play pool with a man named after a city
Always try to get at least twelve hours of sleep
Don't split a winning hand, call your mother whenever you can
And no matter how much fun it looks to you, do as I say, not as I do
No matter how much fun it looks to you, do as I say, not as I do
