歌词
yeah
Yeah
对你来说有些事情不是总是合理
I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now
但是，嘿！记得我怎么说的吗？
But hey, what daddy always tell you?
挺起身躯像个小小士兵
Straighten up little soldier
闭紧嘴唇
Stiffen up that upper lip
你为什么哭了呢？
What you crying about?
你还有爸爸呢
You got me
海莉我知道你想念爸爸和妈妈
好吧，我会离开，但我正在尝试给你我未曾有过的生活
Hailie I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
我看出你很伤心，即使当你绽开笑颜
Well I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the life that I never had
我看出欢笑在你的眼里，但内心却想哭泣
I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
你很害怕，是因为我不在这吗？
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry
当你祈祷时，爸爸和你在一起
Cuz you're scared, I ain't there?
不要哭了，擦掉眼泪
Daddy's with you in your prayers
爸爸在这，再没有噩梦了
No more crying, wipe them tears
我们将手牵手穿过梦魇，我们做得到
Daddy's here, no more nightmares
兰尼叔叔很疯狂，不是吗？
We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it
尽管如此，他爱着你们而你们应该知道
Laney uncles crazy, aint he?
我们之间是地球上的一切
Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it
当它旋转，当它盘旋
We're all we got in this world
当它回旋，当它扭转
When it spins, when it swirls
两个漂亮的小女孩
When it whirls, when it twirls
凝视中带着迷惑
Two little beautiful girls
我知道它困扰着你们
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze
爸爸总是飘忽不定，而妈妈总是上新闻
I know it's confusing you
我尽力从这一切中保护你们，但有时看起来
Daddy's always on the move, mamma's always on the news
我越努力却更困难，这一切更多的反击于我
I try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seems
所有的压力在爸爸的身上堆积，但他不得不面对
The harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me
爸爸并不想，但你们却看到了我所做的一切
All the things growing up his daddy that he had to see
我们没有想到爸爸和妈妈之间的事情会变得这样
Daddy don't want you to see but you see just as much as he did
但我们的关系已经非常糟糕
We did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me
我们甚至不记得我们曾经在一起的日子
But things have gotten so bad between us
如同往日当我们还是少年的时光
I don't see us ever being together ever again
但是，当然事情发生总有原因
Like we used to be when we was teenagers
事情不来不是这样的
But then of course everything always happens for a reason
只是我们失去了控制
I guess it was never meant to be
并且这就是终点
But it's just something we have no control
当时别担心宝贝，枕着你的头，快睡觉吧
over and that's what destiny is
也许有天当我们醒来，这一切只是梦镜
But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep
现在安静吧宝贝，别哭了
Maybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream
一切都会好起来的
抿紧嘴唇小小女士，就像我告诉你的
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
爸爸在这抱着你，陪伴你度过夜晚
Everything's gonna be alright
我知道妈妈现在不在这里，而哦我们不知道为什么
Stiffen that upperlip up little lady, i told ya
我们的内心想法一样
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
着看起来也许有些疯狂，小宝贝
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
但我保证妈妈现在一切都好
We feel how we feel inside
真有趣
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
我记得一年前爸爸没有太多钱
But i promise momma's gon' be alright
妈妈将一些圣诞礼物打包
把他们塞到圣诞树下并说其中的一部分来自于我
It's funny
应为爸爸并没有买他们
I remember back one year when daddy had no money
我永远不会忘记那个圣诞节，我坐着哭了整个晚上
Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up
因为爸爸觉得自己是个懒鬼，尽管爸爸有一份在工作
And stuck 'em under the tree and said some of 'em were from me
但这份工作只能保证餐桌上的食物
Cuz daddy couldn't buy 'em
和我们住着的每一间房子
I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying
尽管房子不时会被非法闯入和抢劫
Cuz daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job
或街区了发生了枪击而妈妈为了省钱而在家禁足
But his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom
妈妈为了你们能去上大学开始往小猪里存钱
And at the time every house that we lived in
直到在快存到一千元的时候，有人闯了进来，并偷走了它
Either kept getting broke into and robbed
而我知道这深深的伤了妈妈的心
Or shot up on the block and your mom was saving money for you in a jar
并且这似乎一切开始破碎
Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you could go to college
妈妈和我整天吵架，所以妈妈搬走了
Almost had a thousand dollars till someone broke in and stole it
在查尔莫斯的一个公寓里
And I know it hurt so bad it broke your momma's heart
而爸爸搬到了在诺瓦拉一边的八英里街
And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart
并且那是爸爸带着他的CD去加尼福尼亚见Dr.Dre的时候
Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma moved back
并且妈妈和你坐飞机来看我
On the Chalmers in the flat one bedroom apartment
但是爸爸需要工作，所以妈妈和你不得不离开
And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
然后你们开始在电视上看见爸爸，但妈妈并不喜欢
And that's when daddy went to California with his CD and met Dr. Dre
而你和兰尼并不懂应为你们还太小
And flew you and momma out to see me
爸爸是一个摇滚巨星，而妈妈染上了不好的习惯
But daddy had to work, you and momma had to leave me
而这一切发生得太快，以至我们之间没有人抓住它
Then you started seeing daddy on the T.V. and momma didn't like it
我很抱歉你在那儿亲眼看到了一些事情
And you and Laney were to young to understand it
应为我想做的全部不过是让你骄傲
Papa was a rollin' stone, momma developed a habit
现在我坐在一个空房子里，只是回忆着
And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it
看着你儿童时期的照片，它不禁让我出神
I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it first hand
看着你都已经长的这么大了
Cuz all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud
现在你已经长成大女孩了
Now I'm sittin in this empty house, just reminiscing
哇，看起来你很漂亮而爸爸依然在这
Lookin' at your baby pictures, it just trips me out
兰尼，我也正在跟你说，爸爸会一直在这
To see how much you both have grown,
我喜欢这种声音，耶
it's almost like you're sisters now
它就像要响了，不是吗？
Wow, guess you pretty much are and daddy's still here
嘘，妈妈只是暂时地离开
Laney I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still here
现在安静吧宝贝，别哭好吗？
I like the sound of that, yeah
一切都会好起来的
It's got a ring to it don't it?
抿着上嘴唇的小小女生，就像我告诉你的那样
Shh, momma's only gone for the moment
爸爸就在这抱着你，陪伴你度过整个夜晚
我知道妈妈现在不在这，而我们不知道为什么
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
我们的内心有着相同的感受
Everything's gonna be alright
它看起来似乎有些疯狂，小宝贝
Stiffen that upperlip up little lady, i told ya
但我保证，妈妈一切都好
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
并且如果你也同样担心
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
爸爸将买一个嘲笑鸟
We feel how we feel inside
我将给你整个世界
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
我会为你买一个钻石戒指
But i promise momma's gon' be alright
我将会为你歌唱
我将为你做任何事情只为你能微笑
And if you ask me too
并且如果嘲笑鸟不再歌唱，当指环不再闪耀
Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
我会折断它的脖子
I'mma give you the world
我会回去找珠宝商的麻烦
I'mma buy a diamond ring for you
并且让他吃下他给爸爸的每一克拉，和别惹爸爸（哈哈）
I'mma sing for you
end
I'll do anything for you to see you smile
And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
I'mma break that birdies neck
I'd go back to the jewler who sold it to ya
And make him eat every carat don't **** with dad (haha)
END
