《I’ve Been Down That Road Before》歌词

[00:00:00] I've Been Down That Road Before - Hank Williams Snr.

[00:00:08] Now friends if you'll just listen to me

[00:00:12] You'll get some good hard earned advice

[00:00:15] I don't aim to meddle in your business

[00:00:18] I'm just trying to save you an awful price

[00:00:21] You see these teeth that I ain't got

[00:00:24] And these knots on my bald head

[00:00:28] I'll guaranty you boys I never get them

[00:00:30] There a lyin' home in bed

[00:00:34] Now take the smart aleck in any town

[00:00:37] Of him folks want no part

[00:00:41] He acts like his head was only

[00:00:43] Made to hold his ears apart

[00:00:47] Now he might not like what I'm about to say

[00:00:50] And my words might make him sore

[00:00:53] But I'm just trying to be helpful

[00:00:56] Cause I been down that road before

[00:01:00] Now to bully folks and play mean tricks

[00:01:03] Was once my pride and joy

[00:01:06] Till one day I was toted home

[00:01:10] And mama didn't know her little boy

[00:01:13] My head was swelled up so dog gone big

[00:01:15] I couldn't get it through my front door

[00:01:19] Now I ain't just talkin' to hear myself

[00:01:23] I been down that road before

[00:01:26] A little fella about my size

[00:01:29] Got tired of bein' pushed about

[00:01:32] So he went to work and when he got through

[00:01:35] What he'd knocked everyone of my teeth out

[00:01:39] One time too many I rubbed him wrong

[00:01:42] And he should end up the score

[00:01:46] Now that's what happens

[00:01:47] When you get too big for your britches

[00:01:50] Oh I been down that road before

[00:01:54] Now when you get to thinking your really smart

[00:01:58] Well there's somebody smarter than you

[00:02:01] And no matter how much you boast and brag

[00:02:04] You can still learn a thing or two

[00:02:07] Go get you some treatments just like I've had

[00:02:11] And you won't hanker for more

[00:02:14] Cause I've really learned the meaning of living and loving

[00:02:17] Cause I've been down that road before

[00:02:22] Now the man that walks this rocky road

[00:02:25] Usually gets just what he deserves

[00:02:29] Cause he's just a helpless servant

[00:02:31] To a master that he servers

[00:02:36] Now I've learned to slow my temper down

[00:02:39] And not to pick no scraps no more

[00:02:42] Boys its a lot easier on the head and the eyes

[00:02:46] Cause I've been down that road before
