[推荐]My Old Man 我的老爹 ！！！
My Old Man 我的老爹
艺人：Rodney Atkins
歌曲：My Old Man
专辑∶Honesty
翻译：Flora Zheng
中文歌词：
我有一张照片，他赤足站在泥泞中
在他的祖父犁后另有两头大毛驴
那时53年5月8日，他十岁
他出生于田纳西州沃什本一个奉信上帝的家庭
视鲍伯叔叔如父亲
唯一的梦想就是加入小联盟棒球队
这小男孩有双蓝色的大眼睛和结满茧的手
后来他成我的老爹
她是一个肯塔基女孩，生于情人节
是我外婆尤拉.梅五个孩中的四闰女
日落般灿烂的金发，绿宝石似的明眸，美丽中蕴藏羞怯
外公当一辈子的煤矿工
在我看来，爹一直是我生命中的圣人
但是圣人也需要有天使来为他们引路
约37年前，他向玛格里特.林求婚
然后天使嫁给我老爹
我一直抗拒乡亲们所说的真相
然而现在我很高兴，他们常让我清醒过来
当我远眺，乡亲就象山
越靠近，越觉得高大
光阴如梭，然而离重逢的佳节尚远
没有别的办法而电话又不能真正表达我的情感
唯有此歌才能略表
我对双亲的无比感恩之心
英文歌词：
I got a picture of him, barefoot in the mud.
Behind his grandpa’s plow an’ two great mules.
When he turned ten years old, on May 8, ’53.
He grew up fearin’ God in Washburn, Tennessee.
The closest thing he had to a Dad was his Uncle Bob.
An’ he could only dream of things like little league baseball.
An’ that little boy, with big blue eyes and calloused hands,
Huh, became my old man.
Well she was a Kentucky girl, born on Valentine’s Day.
The fourth child of five to my Grandma, Eula May.
So shy and beautiful with sunset hair and emerald eyes.
Her Daddy spent his life workin’ in the coal mines.
Now in my eyes, all my life, my Daddy’s been a Saint.
But even Saints need Angels to show them the way.
And over thirty-seven years ago, he asked for Margaret Lynn’s hand.
And that Angel married my old man.
And there were times I tried to buck, the truthful things they said.
But now I’m glad that, more than once, they rattled my stubborn head.
’Cause my folks are just like mountains, I looked at from afar.
But now the closer I get to them, the bigger they are.
The time seems to fly anymore, and the holidays are so far apart.
There’s no way a ’phone call could express what’s in my heart.
So this is just a song to say how greatful I am.
For Mamma and my old man.
