※ 引述《loveyourself (I Still Believe)》之銘言:
: 07.Jamey Johnson - The Dollar
Jamey Johnson的小自傳前面有稍稍提到(完整的還是去他的官網看了~~)
The Dollar的歌詞寫得相當平易近人,沒什麼特別難的詞彙。也因為聽這首歌
比較沒有太多的隔閡。
描敘的內容很多家庭都可能經歷過,一個為家庭努力工作的父親、一個持家的
母親和一個天真無邪的小孩。小朋友總是會提出無數的問題,得到答案後通常
也會自己古錐的解讀方法;就像這首歌詞所寫的,『媽媽告訴她的小寶貝,爸
爸因為花時間、精力工作才會拿到錢。』,小孩便想著如果他能夠存點錢,那
麼爸爸是不是就能夠花點時間陪陪他呢?
看似可愛的歌詞卻是有那麼點無奈、感傷。最後一段寫著:
mama takes her little man
sets him on her lap
and starts dialing up some numbers on the phone
she says daddy come home early
you don’t have to chase that dollar
cause your little man has got one here at home
聽到時有點鼻酸~這段寫得很樸實動人。

The Dollar
Daddy hugs his little man
says son I’ve got to go
and he pulls out of the drive and disappears
as they walk back in the house
the young boy asks his mama
where does daddy go when he leaves here
mama tells her little man
your daddy’s got a job
and when he goes to work they pay him for his time
well the young boy gets to thinking
and he heads up to his bedroom
and comes running back with a quarter and four dimes
(chorus:)
and says mama how much time will this buy me
is it enough to take me fishing or throw a football in the street
if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need
to spend some time with me
the young boy tells his mama
now I know daddy’s busy
cause most times when he gets home it’s dark outside
but tell him I’ve got me some pennies
saved up from the tooth fairy
and I keep ‘em in my piggy bank and I believe there’s thirty-five
(chorus:)
and mama how much time will that buy me
is it enough to take me camping in a tent down by the creek
if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need
to spend some time with me
mama how much time will this buy me
is it enough for just an afternoon a day or a whole week
if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need
to spend some time with me
mama takes her little man
sets him on her lap
and starts dialing up some numbers on the phone
she says daddy come home early
you don’t have to chase that dollar
cause your little man has got one here at home
