滬江英樂：這首《Long Way To Go》是老牌鄉(xiāng)村音樂歌手Alan Jackson專輯《Thirty Miles West》中的主打歌，該專輯已與2012年6月5日正式發(fā)行，并以黑馬之勢位居Billboard 200第二名之位，僅次于Adele的《21》。其實這首《Long Way Tto Go》已于2011年6月發(fā)行，今年只是收錄于新專輯中，新專輯再次演繹其樸實自然的唱功，并且也是一如既往蘊含深意，讓聽眾不免在享受聽覺盛宴的同時也備受啟發(fā)。

Alan Jackson是繼Garth Brooks之后，90年代最著名的鄉(xiāng)村音樂男歌手，他完整的繼承了80年代的新傳統(tǒng)主義運動。這位倍受歌迷喜愛的鄉(xiāng)村男歌手謙虛而樸實，他擅長自己創(chuàng)作并演唱歌曲，至今已售出將近6000萬張唱片，35次位居鄉(xiāng)村音樂單曲榜首，還有著50首前十熱曲。

Well, I drove down to the ocean
Left my heartache way behind
But the rain won't leave, and the pain won't ease
And the sun don't wanna shine

So I ordered me up a killer
Found a view out across the sea
I sat down in the sand, a drink in my hand
And the glass lookin' back at me

I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go
Yeah, I got a long, long way to go

Well, I met an ol' boy from Georgia
His woman done knocked him down
I asked him how he's doin', he stared at me confused
And said, "Hey, ain't you look around?"

He said "The rain won't leave, and the pain won't ease
"And the sun don't wanna shine
"And there's somethin' in the bottom of this drink I've
just got
"And it don't look like a worm to me

"I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go
Yeah, I got a long, long way to go"

So we put our drinks together, and toasted rainy weather
And the women that had done us wrong
Then we threw back margaritas, the bugs just made it sweeter
And we both sang a happy song

I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad luck won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I got a long, long way to go
Yeah, I got a long, long way to go
