Homecoming - Single Version

Heimkehr - Single Version

I guess I should've written, dad

Ich schätze, ich hätte schreiben sollen, Papa

To let you know that I was coming home

Um dich wissen zu lassen, dass ich nach Hause komme

I've been gone so many years

Ich war so viele Jahre weg

I didn't realize you had a phone

Mir war nicht klar, dass du ein Telefon hast

I saw your cattle coming in,

Ich sah dein Vieh hereinkommen,

Boy they're looking mighty fat and slick

Mensch, die sehen mächtig fett und glatt aus

I saw fred at the service station

Ich traf Fred an der Tankstelle

Told me that his wife is awful sick

Er erzählte mir, dass seine Frau furchtbar krank ist

You heard my record on the radio

Du hast meine Platte im Radio gehört

Oh, well it's just another song

Ach, naja, es ist nur ein weiteres Lied

But I've got a hit recorded

Aber ich habe einen Hit aufgenommen

And it'll be out on the market 'fore too long

Und er kommt bald auf den Markt

I got this ring in mexico

Diesen Ring habe ich aus Mexiko

No, it didn't cost me quite a bunch

Nein, er hat mich nicht sehr viel gekostet

When you're in the business that I'm in

Wenn man in dem Geschäft ist, in dem ich bin

The people call it puttin' up a front

Nennen die Leute das Fassade aufbauen

I know I've lost a little weight

Ich weiß, ich habe etwas abgenommen

I guess I am looking kind of pale

Ich schätze, ich sehe etwas blass aus

If you didn't know me better, dad

Wenn du mich nicht besser kennen würdest, Papa

You'd think that I'd just gotten out of jail

Würdest du denken, ich wäre gerade aus dem Gefängnis gekommen

No, we don't ever call them beer joints

Nein, wir nennen sie niemals Bierkneipen

Night clubs...

Nachtclubs...
