Simple Things

We got the biggest dog you ever saw
我得到了你所見過的最大的狗
Sprawled on the porch, coolin' off
它四肢伸開躺在門廊上，涼快著
Down at our place
在我們家
His name is Ace
它名字叫艾斯
We got the hummingbirds comin' in
我們讓蜂鳥進來了
Hittin' those sugar water feeders and buzzin' off again
那些糖水餵食器又嗡嗡叫起來了
Floatin' in the wind
在風中飄蕩
Then the sunset melts into a line of pines
然後夕陽融化成一排松樹
Life is slow out here but it just suits me fine
這裡的生活節奏很緩慢，但很適合我

正是這些簡單的事情在撥弄著我的琴弦
It's the simple things that strum my strings
嬰兒啼哭，媽媽唱歌哄他入睡
Baby cries, and momma sings him back to sleep
哦,這歌聲聽起來如此甜美
Oh it sounds so sweet
乾了一天的辛苦工作
It's puttin' in a hard day's work
回到家，穿上一件乾淨的t卹
Comin' home and puttin' on a clean t-shirt
朋友和家人聚在一起
It's friends and family gathering
摟著脖子，講著笑話，端上一道菜
A neck to hug, a joke to tell and a dish to bring
這是簡單且美好的事
It's the simple things, yeah
星期天帶我的孩子去河邊

捕捉蝌蚪和印第安人的錢
It's takin' my boy to the river on Sunday
當他的人字拖濺起水花時，我開心得大笑
Huntin' tadpoles and Indian money
然後我們噴上噴霧，因為我們不想得沙蝨
And I just laugh while his flipflops splash
我們用雞肝做魚餌
Then we spray on the Off! 'cause we don't wan't chiggers
去釣黃色的鯰魚
Baitin' our hooks with chicken livers
小貓舔了舔嘴
Goin' yellow catfishin'
我喜歡他說“爸爸，給我五個”
A little whisker lick grippin'
看著他搖搖擺擺地走進來，嘴裡嘟囔著，咧著嘴笑著
I love it when he says 'Daddy give me five'
在魚線的那頭
And watchin' him grunt and grin as he's reelin' in
正是這些簡單的事情在撥弄著我的琴弦
That flathead on his line
嬰兒啼哭，媽媽唱歌哄他入睡

哦,這歌聲聽起來如此甜美
It's the simple things that strummy strings
乾了一天的辛苦工作
Baby cries, and momma sings him back to sleep
回到家，穿上一件乾淨的t卹
Oh it sounds so sweet
朋友和家人聚在一起
It's puttin' in a hard day's work
摟著脖子，講著笑話，端上一道菜
Comin' home and puttin' on a clean t-shirt
這是簡單且美好的事
It's friends and family gathering
這是最簡單美好的事
A neck to hug, a joke to tell and a dish to bring
我很感激擁有這一切
Yeah it's the simple things
It's the simple things

It's feelin' thankful
