Henry, come on
歌詞:
[English]
I mean, Henry, come on
Do you think I'd really choose it
All this off and on
Henry, come on
I mean, baby, come on
Do you think I'd really lose it on ya
If you did nothin' wrong
Henry, come on
Last call, hey, y'all
Hang his hat up on the wall
Tell him that his cowgirl is gone
Go on and giddy up
Soft leather, blue jeans
Call us into void's dreams
We turn it but say it was fun
And it's not because of you
That I turned out so dangerous
Yesterday, I heard God say, "It's in your blood"
And it struck me just like lightning
I've been fightin', I've been strivin'
Yesterday, I heard God say, "You were born to be the one
To hold the hand of the man
Who flies too close to the sun"
I'll still be nice to your mom
It's not her fault you're leavin'
Some people come and they're gone
They just fly away
Take your ass to the house
Don't even bother explainin'
There's no workin' it out
No way
His last call, hey, y'all
Hang his hat up on the wall
Tell him that his cowgirl is gone
Come on and giddy up
Soft leather, blue jeans
Don't you get it? That's the thing
You can't chase a ghost when it's gone
And it's not because of you
That I turned out so dangerous
Yesterday, I heard God say, "It's in your blood"
And it's not because of you
That I turned out so dangerous
Yesterday, I heard God say, "It's in your blood"
And it struck me just like lightning
I've been fightin', I've been strivin'
But yesterday, I heard God say, "You were born to be the one
To hold the hand of the man
Who flies too close to the sun"
All these country singers
And their lonely rides to Houston
Doesn't really make for the past
You know, settle down, darling
His last call, "Hey, y'all"
Hang his hat up on the wall
Tell him that his cowgirl is gone
Go on and giddy up
Last call, "Hey, y'all"
Hang his hat up on the wall
Tell him that his cowgirl is gone
Go on and giddy up
Go on and giddy up
Go on and giddy up
Hey

文法:
-
Do you think I'd really choose it
➔ 仮定法 (タイプ2): 仮定の状況。
➔ 過去仮定形 ('I'd choose') を使って、仮定の選択を表現します。話者は実際には「それ」を選ばないことを意味します。
-
If you did nothin' wrong
➔ 二重否定 (非標準): "nothin' wrong" は "anything wrong" の代わりに使用されています。
➔ これは口語的/非公式な言い方です。標準英語では、"If you didn't do anything wrong" となります。二重否定は、不正行為がないことを強調します。
-
Tell him that his cowgirl is gone
➔ 間接話法。
➔ この文は、誰かが「彼」に伝えるべきことを伝えています。「that」は口語では省略可能です。
-
We turn it but say it was fun
➔ 'but' を使って、2つの行動を対比させています。
➔ 記述されている行動は否定的 (「turn it」) ですが、話者は結果は依然として肯定的であったと主張しています。これは、歌手の反抗的な性質を強調しています。
-
It's not her fault you're leavin'
➔ 節における 'that' の省略。
➔ 'that' は理解できますが、省略されています: "It's not her fault *that* you're leaving." 口語や非公式な文章でよく見られます。
-
You were born to be the one To hold the hand of the man Who flies too close to the sun
➔ 関係詞 (who, to)
➔ "Who flies too close to the sun" は 'the man' を修飾する関係詞で、彼に関する情報を追加しています。'to hold' の 'to' は不定詞句の一部で、目的を示しています。
-
Doesn't really make for the past
➔ 句動詞 'make for' は '貢献する' または '作り出す' を意味します。
➔ この文は、説明されているシナリオ (カントリー歌手の孤独な旅) が、「過去」(おそらくロマンチック化または望ましい過去) の感覚に貢献したり作り出したりしないことを表現しています。
