《Soliloquy (Parts 1 & 2)(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Soliloquy (parts 1 & 2) - Frank Sinatra

[00:00:08] I wonder what think he'll of me

[00:00:12] I guess he'll call me the "old man"

[00:00:16] I guess he'll think I can lick

[00:00:18] Every other feller's father

[00:00:21] Well, I can!

[00:00:26] I bet that he'll turn out to be

[00:00:30] The spitting image of his dad

[00:00:34] But he'll have more common sense

[00:00:36] Than his puddin-headed father ever had

[00:00:43] I'll teach him to wrassle

[00:00:45] And dive through a wave

[00:00:46] When we go in the morning for our swim

[00:00:49] His mother can teach him

[00:00:51] The way to behave

[00:00:52] But she won't make a sissy out o' him

[00:00:56] Not him! Not my boy! Not Bill!

[00:01:09] My boy , Bill. I will see that

[00:01:12] He is named after me, I will.

[00:01:18] My boy, Bill! He'll be tall

[00:01:21] And tough as a tree, will Bill!

[00:01:26] Like a tree he'll grow

[00:01:28] With his head held high

[00:01:30] And his feet planted firm on the ground

[00:01:34] And you won't see nobody dare to try

[00:01:39] To boss or toss him around!

[00:01:42] No pot-bellied,

[00:01:44] Baggy-eyed bully'll toss him around

[00:01:52] Don't give I a damn what he does

[00:01:54] As long as he does what he likes!

[00:01:57] He can sit on his tail

[00:01:58] Or work on a rail

[00:01:59] A hammer, With hammering spikes!

[00:02:02] He can ferry a boat on a river

[00:02:05] Or peddle a pack on his back

[00:02:07] Or work up and down

[00:02:08] The streets of a town

[00:02:09] With a whip and a horse and a hack

[00:02:12] He can haul a scow along a canal

[00:02:16] Run a cow around a corral

[00:02:20] Or even bark for a carousel

[00:02:25] Of course it takes talent to do that well

[00:02:30] He might be a champ of theheavyweights

[00:02:33] Or a feller that sells you glue

[00:02:35] Or President of the United States

[00:02:41] That'd be all right, too

[00:02:45] His mother would like that

[00:02:47] But he wouldn't be President unless he wanted to be

[00:02:49] Not Bill!

[00:02:53] My boy, Bill! He'll be tall

[00:02:55] And as tough as a tree, Bill will

[00:03:00] Like a tree he'll grow

[00:03:02] With his head held high

[00:03:04] And his feet planted firm on the ground

[00:03:08] And you won't see nobody dare to try

[00:03:13] To boss or toss him around!

[00:03:16] No fat-bottomed, flabby-faced, pot-bellied,

[00:03:20] Boss him around

[00:03:27] And I'll be damned if he'll marry the boss's daughter

[00:03:31] A skinny-lipped virgin with blood like water

[00:03:34] Who'll give him a peck

[00:03:35] And call it a kiss

[00:03:37] And look in his eyes through a lorgnet

[00:03:42] Say, why am I talking on like this?

[00:03:46] My kid ain't even been born yet

[00:03:50] I can see him when he's seventeen or so

[00:03:56] And starting to go with a girl

[00:04:02] I can give him lots of pointers, very sound

[00:04:07] On the way to get around any girl

[00:04:13] I can tell him ...

[00:04:17] Wait a minute!

[00:04:19] Could it be?

[00:04:21] What the hell!

[00:04:24] What if he is a girl?

[00:04:33] What would I do with her?

[00:04:36] What could I do for her?

[00:04:38] A bum with no money!

[00:04:41] You can have fun with a son

[00:04:45] But you got to be a father to a girl

[00:04:54] She mighn't be so bad at that

[00:04:59] A kid with ribbons in her hair!

[00:05:03] A kind o' neat and petite

[00:05:07] Little tin-type of her mother!

[00:05:09] What a pair!

[00:05:17] My little girl

[00:05:56] Pink and white

[00:05:58] As peaches and cream is she

[00:06:04] My little girl

[00:06:06] Is half again as bright

[00:06:11] As girls are meant to be!

[00:06:18] Dozens of boys pursue her

[00:06:23] Many a likely lad does what he can to woo her

[00:06:34] From her faithful dad

[00:06:39] She has a few

[00:06:42] Pink and white young fellers of two and three

[00:06:49] But my little girl

[00:06:51] Gets hungry every night

[00:06:56] And she come home to me!

[00:07:05] I got to get ready before she comes!

[00:07:10] I got to make certain that she

[00:07:14] Won't be dragged up in slums

[00:07:17] With a lot o' bums like me

[00:07:24] She's got to be sheltered

[00:07:26] And be dressed in the best money can buy!

[00:07:32] I never knew how to get money

[00:07:36] But, I'll try, by God! I'll try!

[00:07:42] I'll go out and make it or steal it

[00:07:47] Or take it or die!
