《The Brothers》歌词

[00:00:00] The Brothers - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)/George Jones (乔治·琼斯)

[00:00:14] Several years ago

[00:00:17] He gave up everything that mattered

[00:00:20] And rambled off to Nashville Tennessee

[00:00:27] With a pocket full of country songs

[00:00:31] And his old guitar

[00:00:34] He thought that's where he was supposed to be

[00:00:41] But the family stood here waiting and his songs

[00:00:46] Are getting faded

[00:00:49] There's probably not a nickel in his jeans

[00:00:56] But if he don't get good enough

[00:00:59] Sing his way back home

[00:01:02] He knows that he can always count on me

[00:01:11] Mama is Joe still driving

[00:01:13] Them old nails out in colorado

[00:01:17] Lord I always thought a lot of him

[00:01:23] You know maybe someday

[00:01:25] Me and this old guitar

[00:01:27] Just might happen to get lucky

[00:01:31] And I'll get a chance to go back

[00:01:32] And visit my old friends

[00:01:38] Did sonny get that ranch he always wanted

[00:01:42] Now boulder

[00:01:44] Lord I used to want to be cowboy too

[00:01:51] But I'm still stuck here in Nashville

[00:01:54] Writing songs and getting older

[00:01:58] And mostly I always think about you

[00:02:16] I wonder where he'd be right now

[00:02:19] If he was not a dreamer

[00:02:22] And if he was just

[00:02:24] A little more like me

[00:02:30] He wouldn't be in Nashville

[00:02:33] Reaching for the stars

[00:02:37] And wishing things were like they used to be

[00:02:44] Mom is Joe still driving

[00:02:46] Them old nails in colorado

[00:02:51] I always thought a lot of him

[00:02:58] Maybe someday

[00:02:58] Me and this old guitar

[00:03:01] Is gonna happen to get lucky

[00:03:04] And I'll come back and visit my old friends

[00:03:11] Mom did sonny get that ranch that he always wanted

[00:03:16] Down by boulder

[00:03:18] I used to want to be cowboy too

[00:03:25] Mom I'm stuck here in Nashville

[00:03:28] Writing songs and getting older

[00:03:32] But mostly I been thinking about you
