- Jordan Davis Buy Dirt 歌詞
- Luke Bryan Jordan Davis
- Few days before he turned 80
他八十歲生日前不久
He was sitting out back in a rocker
一天坐在午後的搖椅
He said, what you been up to lately
他向我問起我的近況
I told him chasing a dollar
我說我正在賺點小錢
And in between sips of coffee
在他喝著咖啡的間隙
He poured this wisdom out
向我傾倒了他的智慧
Said if you want my two cents on making a dollar count
他說如果你想在謀財之路上聽取一點我的建議
那就買些泥土
Buy dirt
找到你生命裡不可缺少的唯一
Find the one you can't live without
給她買枚戒指向她單膝跪地
Get a ring, let your knee hit the ground
做你所愛的事情將它變成你的職業
Do what you love but call it work
每個禮拜在教堂的盤裡留下一點零錢
And throw a little money in the plate at church
記得時常向天祈禱把你的根深深扎進地裡
Send your prayers up and your roots down deep
在你的族譜之樹上添幾根枝條
Add a few limbs to your family tree
看著你孩子鉛筆的塗鴉
And watch their pencils marks
還有門口院裡的青草
And the grass in the yard
逐漸長大
All grow up
因為這一切都逃不過這個道理
'Cause the truth about it is
這些事情發生實在是快
It all goes by real quick
你花錢買不來幸福
You can't buy happiness
但好在能買點泥土
But you can buy dirt
在你攀登生活的梯子前
讓我來告訴你其中的道理
Before you get caught on that ladder
你需要找到對你真正有意義的事情
Let me tell you what it's all about
用圍欄將他們保護周全
Find you a few things that matter
接著他對我說啊
That you can put a fence around
你得買些泥土
And then he laid it out
找到你生命裡不可缺少的唯一
給她買枚戒指向她單膝跪地
Buy dirt
做你所愛的事情將它變成你的職業
Find the one you can't live without
每個禮拜在教堂的盤裡留下一點零錢
Get a ring, let your knee hit the ground
記得時常向天祈禱把你的根深深扎進地裡
Do what you love but call it work
在你的族譜之樹上添幾根枝條
And throw a little money in the plate at church
看著你孩子鉛筆的塗鴉
Send your prayers up and your roots down deep
還有門口院裡的青草
And add a few limbs to your family tree
逐漸長大
And watch their pencils marks
因為這一切都逃不過這個道理
And the grass in the yard
這些事情發生實在是快
All grow up
你花錢買不來幸福
'Cause the truth about it is
但好在能買點泥土
It all goes by real quick
你還能買點泥土
You can't buy happiness
你得感謝上天的賜予
But you can buy dirt
因為天也不會無窮無盡地給予
不妨買點泥土
You can buy dirt
找到你生命裡不可缺少的唯一
給她買枚戒指向她單膝跪地
And thank the good Lord for it
做你所愛的事情將它變成你的職業
'Cause He ain't makin' any more of it
每個禮拜在教堂的盤裡留下一點零錢
記得時常向天祈禱把你的根深深扎進地裡
So buy dirt
在你的族譜之樹上添幾根枝條
Find the one you can't live without
看著你孩子鉛筆的塗鴉
Get a ring, let your knee hit the ground
還有門口院裡的青草
Do what you love but call it work
逐漸長大
And throw a little money in the plate at church
因為這一切都逃不過這個道理
Send your prayers up and your roots down deep
這些事情發生實在是快
Add a few limbs to your family tree
你花錢買不來幸福
Watch their pencils marks
但好在能買點泥土
And the grass in the yard
All grow up
'Cause the truth about it is
It all goes by real quick
You can't buy happiness
But you can buy dirt
