- Tyrone Wells Carolina blues 歌詞
- Tyrone Wells
- Grampa was a preacher
爺爺是個傳教士
And he led the singin', too
他也是領唱的
Grandma used to yodel
奶奶過去喜歡約德爾唱法
And tell us what to do
並教我們怎麼唱
Grampa drove a limousine
爺爺有一輛豪華轎車
But just on Saturdays
但是只在周六才會開
And he'd tell the crying families
他會用耶穌安慰
About Jesus by the grave
在墳墓邊的悲傷的家庭
他會一直面帶微笑
And he was always smiling
用口哨吹著小曲
And whistlin' a tune
祖父他有著最慈祥和藹的眼睛
And Grampa had the kindest eyes
特別美好的藍色
Carolina Blues
我曾經認識一個女孩
Once I knew this girl whose
她的爺爺是一個百萬富翁
Grampa was a millionaire
當他離去的時候
And when he kicked the bucket
她是唯一的繼承人
She was the only heir
他把他擁有的所有東西留給了她
她做夢都想不到的
And he left her with everything
一卡車的錢
More than she could dream
和海邊的城堡
Truckloads full of money
但他總是撒謊
With a castle by the sea
而且很自私
But he was always lying
所以他只給她留下了一句空話
And selfish as could be
和痛苦的回憶
So he left her with empty words
而我的祖父沒有留下
And painful memories
這麼多可以給我花的錢
我想他最後
Now Grampa didn't leave me
也許都沒有那麼多錢
Money I could spend
但我的祖父是個誠實的人
I guess that he didn't have
永遠追尋真相
Much money in the end
祖父他有著最慈祥和藹的眼睛
But my Grampa was an honest man
最好看的藍色
Seeking after Truth
現在祖母有了一個女兒
And Grampa had the kindest eyes
她之後有了兩個兒子
Carolina Blues
而那其中一個成為了我的父親
當他和媽媽完事後
Now Grandma had a daughter
我想我大概是在這個地球上
And then she had two sons
最富有的人
And one became my father
因為有這麼多留給了我
When he and Ma were done
比金錢更值錢的東西
And I might be the richest man
我的爸爸就像我的爺爺一樣
To ever walk this earth
他總是穿一雙破鞋
'Cause I was left with so much more
但他是我可以信任的人
Than money could be worth
他永遠說實話
但是爸爸也不會給我留下
And my dad's just like my grampa
很多的錢讓我花
He's wearing worn out shoes
我想他在最後也無法擁有
But he's a man that I can trust
那麼多的錢
He always tells the truth
但是我的爸爸是個誠實的人
Now maybe Dad won't leave me
總是追尋真相
Money I can spend
爸爸他繼承了祖父的眼睛
My guess is that he won't have
最美的藍色的眼睛
Much money in the end
是我最不能忘懷的藍色眼睛
現在我成為了一個父親
But my father is an honest man
我有了三個可愛的女孩
Seeking after truth
一切都變得不一樣了起來
And Daddy got my grandpa's eyes
自從她們來到這個世界以後
Carolina Blues
名譽和財富對我來說
Carolina Blues
是不切實際的空求
我寧願去了解我女兒眼中的世界
Now I am a father
看著她們漸漸長大
I 've got three little girls
我們都知道
And everything is different
時間飛逝
Since they came into the world
上帝指引著我成了一個男人
Fame and fortune seems to me
一個堅持到底的男人
The empty air's pursue
說到做到
I'd rather know my daughter's world
永遠這樣
And see them grow up too
我希望我可以給她們留下
留下一筆財富
We all know how time can
但你知道我是一個寫歌的窮歌手
Slip away from you
所以這筆財富也僅是癡人說夢
So God help me to be a man
我能做到的也將是我的祖父和父親一直做的
That always follow through
永遠追尋真相成為一個誠實的人
I wanna do what I say
當我看向鏡子的時候
I'll do
我可以看到那個美麗的藍色眼睛
祖父，它讓我想起了你
And I should hope I leave them
這藍色的雙眸
Money they can spend
我希望我的女兒們也擁有著這美麗的顏色
But you know that I am a song writer
你和爸爸還有我一樣擁有的
So the money is in the wind
屬於我們家族的美麗的藍色
Like my daddy and grandpa
Seeking after truth
And when I look into the mirror
I see Carolina Blues
Grandpa, it makes me think of you
These Carolina Blues
You know I want my daughters got them too
Carolina
Carolina Blues
