將手伸出車窗外
今天我們又有新的旅程
媽媽正在一旁調著鬆弛的吉他弦
而爸爸仍固執的擦拭著牛仔帽上沾惹的油漬
我們將在前方不遠處的加油站落腳
如果火星上從有石油的蹤跡
我們的卡車亦必會在那留下痕跡
隨著車輪轉動揚起的塵沙
是我們唯一的註腳
因此在你親吻我之前
你必須瞭解
我的爸爸是個Rodeo
PAPA WAS A RODEO
I like your twisted point of view, Mike
I like your questioning eyebrows
You've made it pretty clear what you like
It's only fair to tell you now
that I leave early in the morning
and I won't be back till next year
I see that kiss-me pucker forming
but maybe you should plug it with a beer
cause Papa was a rodeo Mama was a rock'n'roll band
I could play guitar and rope a steer
before I learned to stand
Home was anywhere with diesel gas
Love was a trucker's hand
Never stuck around long enough for a one-night stand
Before you kiss me you should know
Papa was a rodeo
The light reflecting off the mirror ball
looks like a thousand swirling eyes
They make me think I shouldn't be here at all
You know, every minute someone dies
What are we doing in this dive bar
How can you live in a place like this
Why don't you just get into my car
and I'll take you away
I'll take that kiss now, but...
And now it's 55 years later
We've had the romance of the century
After all these years wrestling gators
I still feel like crying
when I think of what you said to me...
What a coincidence, your
Papa was a rodeo too
