Red Dirt Road

I was raised off of old Route 3
我在3號公路旁長大
Out past where the blacktop ends
過了柏油路的地方

我們每週日早上去教堂禮拜
We'd walked to church on Sunday morning
光腳跑回強森的小院

在那裡我第一次見到Mary
Race barefoot back to the Johnson's fence
在路邊摘黑莓

那個夏天我的心來了個急轉彎
That's where I first saw Mary
在那條紅土路

在那裡我第一次喝酒
On that roadside pickin' blackberries
在那裡我找到耶穌

在那裡我第一次當了馬路殺手
That summer I turned a corner in my soul
把車撞得稀碎

我明白了
Down that red dirt road
去天堂的路上充滿了好人和壞人

明白了
It's where I drank my first beer
快樂不僅僅屬於高成就者

我明白了
It's where I found Jesus
那條紅土路教會我

生活不是一個死胡同
Where I wrecked my first car
她（Mary）的爸爸不咋喜歡我
I tore it all to pieces
和我的破GTO（車）

我會半夜偷偷去她家
I learned the path to heaven is full of
用石頭砸她臥室窗戶
sinners and believers
我們關掉車燈

頂著月光行駛
Learned that happiness on earth
暢想未來的樣子

在那條紅土路上飛馳
ain't just for high achievers
在那裡我第一次喝酒

在那裡我找到耶穌
I've learned I've come to know
在那裡我第一次當了馬路殺手
There's life at both ends
把車撞得稀碎
Of that red dirt road
在那裡我明白了

去天堂的路上充滿了好人和壞人
Her daddy didn't like me much
明白了

快樂不僅僅屬於高成就者
With my shackled up GTO
我明白了

那條紅土路教會我
I'd sneak out in the middle of the night
生活不是一個死胡同
Throw rocks at her bedroom window
我出去闖蕩，我又回來了

我失去了Mary,我又找回了她
We 'd turn out the headlights
今晚開車在那條路上感覺像

與一個老朋友重逢
Drive by the moonlight
在這裡我第一次喝酒

在這裡我找到耶穌
Talk about what the future might hold
在這裡我第一次當了馬路殺手

把車撞得稀碎
Down a red dirt road
在這裡我明白了

去天堂的路上充滿了好人和壞人
It's where I drank my first beer
明白了

快樂不僅僅屬於高成就者
It's where I found Jesus
我終於明白了

生活不是一個死胡同
Where I wrecked my first car
像這條紅土路，有始有終
I tore it all to pieces
我終於明白了

生活不是一個死胡同
I learned the path to heaven is full of
像這條紅土路，有始有終
sinners and believers

Learned that happiness on earth

ain't just for high achievers

I've learned I've come to know

There's life at both ends

Of that red dirt road

I went out into the world, and I came back in

I lost Mary, oh I got her back again

And driving home tonight feels like
I 've found a long lost friend

It's where I drank my first beer

It's where I found Jesus

Where I wrecked my first car
I tore it all to pieces

I learned the path to heaven is full of
sinners and believers

Learned that happiness on earth

ain't just for high achievers

I've learned I've come to know

There's life at both ends

Of that red dirt road

I've learned I've come to know

There's life at both ends
Of that red dirt road
