Homeboy
You were too bad for a little square town
當你帶著嘻哈帽穿著鬆散的長褲,
With your hip-hop hat and your pants on the ground
你就注定不能在小鎮安定下來
Heard you cussed out mama, pushed daddy around
從你砸爛你父親的車開始,
before you tore off in his car
我就知道你對你父母非常不滿
Here you are running these dirty old streets
現在你在這髒亂的老街上逃離抓捕,
Tattoo on your neck, fake gold on your teeth
脖子上刻著紋身,還鑲了顆假金牙
Got the 'hood here snowed, but you can't fool me
你用面罩蒙住面孔,但你騙不了我
We both know who you are
我們都知道你是什麼樣的人
Homeboy, you're gonna wish one day
伙計,有一天你會幻想著
That you were sittin' on a gate of a truck by the lake
坐在卡車上欣賞湖景享受著,
With your high school flame on one side, ice cold beer on the other
一旁是高中同學,另一旁是冰啤酒
Ain't no shame in a blue collar forty
就算拿著低薪,養著小孩,住著矮屋,
little house, little kid, little small town story
你也不會埋怨這種藍領生活
If you don't ever do anything else for me, just do this for me brother,
如果你什麼都不想做,但看在我的份上,請你照顧好自己
Come on home, boy
加油啊,伙計
I was haulin' this hay to Uncle Joe's farm
我開著拖車拉著乾草往Joe的農場走去
Thought of us barefoot kids in the yard
想到我們以前光腳玩耍的時光
Man, it seems we were just catchin snakes in the barn
伙計,我還依稀記得我們在糧倉裡捉蛇
Now you're caught up in this mess
現在你卻惹上了麻煩
I could use a little help unloading these bales
但我會盡量幫你解決那些苦差,
I could keep you pretty busy with a hammer and nails
我還可以幫你找到工作
Ain't a glamorous life but it will keep you outta jail
這顯然不會是一個很富裕的生活,但你至少不會進監獄,
Not worry us all to death
不用太擔心身後事了
Homeboy, you're gonna wish one day
伙計,有一天你會幻想著
That you were sittin' on a gateof a truck by the lake
坐在卡車上欣賞湖景享受著,
With your high school flame on one side, ice cold beer on the other
一旁是高中同學,另一旁是冰啤酒
Ain't no shame in a blue collar forty
就算拿著低薪,養著小孩,住著矮屋,
little house, little kid, little small town story
你也不會埋怨這種藍領生活
If you don't ever do anything else for me, just do this for me brother
如果你什麼都不想做,但看在我的份上,請你照顧好自己
come on home, boy
加油啊,伙計
Come on home, boy
加油啊,伙計
You cant 'hold back the hands of time
你無法讓時光倒流,
Mama's goin' grey, and so is daddy's mind
父母終究會老去
I Wish you'd come on back and make it all right
我希望你趕緊浪子回頭,
Before they're called home, boy
不要等著他們去世了才反悔,伙計
Homeboy
伙計啊!
Come on home, boy
回來吧,伙計
