Written by：John Hiatt

When the sun comes up
当晨光初现
And you stare your cup of coffee yup
你凝视着咖啡杯 目光穿透
Right through the kitchen floor
厨房的地板
You feel like hell
感觉糟透了
So you might as well get out and sell
索性出门推销
Your smart ass door to door
你那套小聪明
And the Mrs wears her robe slightly undone
太太的睡袍半敞着
As your daughter dumps her oatmeal on your son
女儿把麦片倒在儿子头上
And you keep it hid
你将心事深藏
Just like your dad did
如同父亲当年一样
Just like your dad did
如同父亲当年一样
So you go to work just to watch some jerk
你每日上班只为看那混蛋
Pick up the perks
坐享你应得的待遇
You were in line to get
那些本该属于你的机会
And the guy that hired you just got fired
而当初录用你的人已被解雇
Your job's expired
你的工作也岌岌可危
They just ain't told you yet
只是他们还没告诉你真相
So you go and buy a brand new set of wheels
于是你买了辆崭新的车
Just to show your family just how great you feel
只为向家人炫耀你的得意
Acting like a kid
表现得像个孩子
Just like your dad did
如同父亲当年一样
Just like your dad did
如同父亲当年一样
And you're a chip off the old block
你简直就是父亲的翻版
Why does it come as such a shock
为何这让你如此震惊
That every road up which you rock
每一条你走过的崎岖道路
Your dad already did
你父亲早已踏遍
Yeah you've seen the old man's ghost
是的 你看见老父亲的幽灵
Come back as creamed chipped beef on toast
化作吐司上的奶油肉末重现
Now if you don't get your slice of the roast
若你分不到应得的那份晚餐
You're gonna flip your lid
你定会暴跳如雷
Just like your dad did
如同父亲当年一样
Just like your dad did
如同父亲当年一样
Well the day was long now supper's on
漫长的一天结束 晚餐已备好
The thrill is gone
激情早已褪去
But something's taking place
但某些变化正在发生
Yeah the food is cold and your wife feels old
饭菜已凉 妻子容颜渐老
But all hands fold
但全家人仍虔诚低头
As the two year old says grace
听两岁孩童做餐前祷告
She says help the starving children to get well
她说"请帮助饥饿的孩子们康复"
But let my brother's hamster burn in hell
却诅咒"让弟弟的仓鼠下地狱吧"
You love your wife and kids
你深爱着妻儿
Just like your dad did
如同父亲当年一样
Just like your dad did yeah
就像你父亲当年那样啊
Just like your dad did
如同父亲当年一样
Just like your dad did
如同父亲当年一样
