Papa Loved Mama
Papa drove a truck nearly all his life
You know it drove mama crazy being a trucker's wife
The part she couldn't handle was the being alone
I guess she needed more to hold than just a telephone
Papa called Mama each and every night
Just to ask her how she was and if us kids were alright
Mama would wait for that call to come in
When Daddy'd hang up she was gone again.
Mama was a looker
Lord, how she shined
Papa was a good'n
But the jealous kind
Papa loved Mama
Mama loved men
Mama's in the graveyard
Papa's in the pen.
Well, it was bound to happen and one night it did
Papa came home and it was just us kids
He had a dozen roses and a bottle of wine
If he was lookin' to surprise us, she was doin' fine
I heard him cry for Mama up and down the hall
Then I heard a bottle break against the bedroom wall
That old diesel engine made an eerie sound
When Papa fired it up and headed into town.
Well, the picture in the paper showed the scene real well
Papa's rig was buried in the local motel
The desk clerk said he saw it all real clear
He never hit the brakes and he was shifting gears.
Mama was a looker
Lord, how she shined
Papa was a good'n
But the jealous kind
Papa loved Mama
Mama loved men
Mama's in the graveyard
Papa's in the pen.

爸爸爱妈妈


爸爸一生以开卡车为业
做卡车司机的妻子
让妈妈发疯
妈妈不知道怎么打发
那些孤独的时光
除了电话外
她想拥有更多
每天晚上爸爸打来电话
问候妈妈和我们是否平安
妈妈会等待这个电话的到来
而爸爸的电话一挂
妈妈就又出了家门
妈妈是个美人
上帝,她漂亮极了
爸爸是个好人
但是爱吃醋
爸爸爱妈妈
妈妈爱男人
妈妈进了坟墓
爸爸进了监狱
这是注定的结局
一天夜晚爸爸回来
只有我们孩子们在家
爸爸带回一瓶酒和玫瑰花
他想让我们大吃一惊
我听他楼上楼下喊妈妈
随后我听到酒瓶打碎在墙上的声音
旧马达发出恐怖的声音
爸爸开着车冲进城里
报上的图片说明了其真实性
爸爸的遗体埋在了当地的殡仪馆
接待员说他看得很清楚
他从不踩刹车闸
并把车速放到最大档

经典赏析:Garth Brooks (上)

这首颇具争议的《爸爸爱妈妈》本来是典型的乡村主题,但其中浓烈的布鲁斯摇滚却似乎是来自摇滚致富的工人阶级子弟布鲁斯·斯普林斯延。也好,工农结合嘛,布鲁斯吉他和乡村提琴共舞,摇滚节奏猛然引出纯粹的乡村副歌,无论如何,这首歌作为根源摇滚,称得上是乡村与布鲁斯携手闯天涯的最好例证。而真正令人心跳的还是歌词部分,紧张的切分音和急促的节奏展开了悲剧,那冰冷的,或者灼热的故事。“妈妈是个美人,上帝,她漂亮极了,爸爸是个好人,但是爱吃醋。爸爸爱妈妈,妈妈爱男人,妈妈进了坟墓,爸爸进了监狱。”就是这样,一个卡车司机的儿子所知道的全部,就是爸爸总得出门,他每晚打来电话,但妈妈需要的是拥抱,而不是“你怎么样?孩子们好吗?”当爸爸带着玫瑰和酒回来......一切,就是那样发生的。
