Where I Grew Up - Kenny Chesney

Artist: Kenny Chesney

Song: Where I Grew Up

There's still marks on the pantry door of that little house
小房子储藏室的门上依然留有多年以前的标记
Where Mama used to measure us
那是妈妈给我们标记身高留下的刻度
I'm proud to say that's my home where I was raised
我可以骄傲的说 那就是我小时候生活的地方
But that ain't where I grew up
但却不是我成长的地方
See I gained a little on Father Time
时光老人总是不留情面
The summer my Granddaddy died
外公去世的那个夏天
The first time I saw Mama cry
我第一次看到妈妈哭泣
Man that sure was tough
这悲伤太过沉重
Felt like I put on a few years
多年都未曾消散
Watching Daddy wipe her tears
看到爸爸给妈妈抹去泪水
In my little coat and tie standing in that cemetery mud
我穿着小小的外套 站在墓地旁的泥土上
That's where I grew up
那里是我成长的地方
My senior year a case of beer out on the river bank
年龄渐长 我坐在河边饮着啤酒
Getting a head start on twenty one
在二十一岁开始新的人生
That's the place that made me feel just like a man
那里是使我转变成男子汉的地方
But that ain't where I grew up
但却不是我成长的地方
See I gained a little on Father Time
时光老人总是不留情面
That night I crossed that center line
在那一夜我越过了中心线
I bet I rolled a dozen times
我曾跌倒过无数次
Next thing I knew I was waking up upside down
心情起起伏伏
Praying God just get me out
向上帝祈祷将我带走
Then I hit my knees beside what was left of my truck
在前进的路上跌倒在地
Hey that's where I grew up
那里是我成长的地方
You learn as you go that's how you grow
成长就是不停地学习
See I gained a little on Father Time
时光老人总是不留情面
When me and her had our first big fight
当我和她第一次争吵时
I said some things I made her cry
我说了一些话 使她哭泣不止
She packed all her stuff
她收拾了所有的行李
The boy in me said let her go
我非常幼稚地说着 随她去吧
But the man in me said pull her close
但是作为男人告诉我要抓住她
It was time to find out which one I was
是时候给自己找准定位了
Standing in a doorway holding on to love
站在通往爱情的路上
That's where I grew up
那里是我成长的地方
Oh that's where I grew up
那里是我成长的地方
