歌词
When I was a kid Uncle Remus he put me to bed
当我还是个孩子的时候,雷莫斯叔叔将我放在床上
With a picture of Stonewall Jackson above my head
在我的头顶放着一张“石墙杰克逊”的英雄画报
Then daddy came in to kiss his little man
这时候爸爸走进房间亲吻了他的小男子汉
With gin on his breath and a Bible in his hand
他手上握着圣经,呼吸中带着金酒的气息
He talked about honor and things I should know
谈论着荣誉以及一些我应该懂得的事
Then he'd stagger a little as he went out the door
他走出房门的时候步履阑珊
I can still hear the soft Southern winds in the live oak trees
我依稀能听到橡树林中柔和的南风
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me
那些威廉姆斯的男孩对我来说意义非凡
Hank and Tennessee
汉克,还有田纳西
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
我想我们终将成就我们的梦想
So what do you do with good ole boys like me
所以对于象我这样优秀的男孩们,你还能做些什么?
Nothing makes a sound in the night like the wind does
没有什么能够在晚上发出风一样的声响
But you ain't afraid if you're washed in the blood like I was
但你若像我一样经过鲜血的洗礼,你就不会害怕
The smell of cape jasmine thru the window screen
茉莉花的气息透过纱窗飘进来
John R. and the Wolfman kept me company
约翰R和沃夫曼与我相伴
By the light of the radio by my bed
在床边收音机的柔光中
With Thomas Wolfe whispering in my head

I can still hear the soft Southern winds in the live oak trees
我依稀能听到橡树林中柔和的南风
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me
那些威廉姆斯的男孩对我来说意义非凡

When I was in school I ran with a kid down the street
还在上学的时候,我和一个孩子在大街上狂奔
But I watched him burn himself up on bourbon and speed
我看着他喝完波旁威士忌后撒野
But I was smarter than most and I could choose
但是我聪明得多,我可以选择
Learned to talk like the man on the six o'clock news
我学着像六点钟的新闻里的那个男人那样说话
When I was eighteen, Lord, I hit the road
上帝啊,当我18岁时,我开始上路了
But it really doesn't matter how far I go
但我真的不在意需要走多远
I can still hear the soft Southern winds in the live oak trees
我依稀能听到橡树林中柔和的南风
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me
