Henry, come on
歌词:
[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
...

语法:
-
Do you think I'd really choose it
➔ 条件句 (第二类型): 假设情况。
➔ 使用过去虚拟语气 ('I'd choose') 来表达一种假设的选择。暗示说话者实际上并没有选择'它'。
-
If you did nothin' wrong
➔ 双重否定 (非标准): "nothin' wrong" 代替 "anything wrong"。
➔ 这是一种口语化/非正式的说话方式。在标准英语中，应该是 "If you didn't do anything wrong"。双重否定强调了没有不当行为。
-
Tell him that his cowgirl is gone
➔ 间接引语。
➔ 这句话报告了某人应该告诉“他”的内容。“that”在非正式口语中是可选的。
-
We turn it but say it was fun
➔ 使用 'but' 来对比两个动作。
➔ 虽然描述的动作是消极的 (“turn it”)，但说话者声称结果仍然是积极的。这突出了歌手的反叛性格。
-
It's not her fault you're leavin'
➔ 从句中省略 'that'。
➔ 'that' 是可以理解的，但被省略了: "It's not her fault *that* you're leaving." 在非正式口语和写作中很常见。
-
You were born to be the one To hold the hand of the man Who flies too close to the sun
➔ 关系子句 (who, to)
➔ "Who flies too close to the sun" 是一个关系子句，修饰 'the man'，添加关于他的更多信息。'to hold' 中的 'to' 是不定式动词短语的一部分，表示目的。
-
Doesn't really make for the past
➔ 短语动词 'make for' 意思是 '有助于' 或 '创造'。
➔ 这句话表达了所描述的场景（乡村歌手孤独的旅程）无助于或创造出一种“过去”的感觉（也许是浪漫化或期望的过去）。
