你可認識保羅·佩蒂？
was a good old man
他是一個善良的老人
如果你和他見個面握個手
You felt a little better
你會覺得好一些
when he shook your hand
讓我來和你說說吧
說說他的經歷然後你就會明白了
Let me tell you a little
為什麼保羅·佩蒂
about him and you'll understand
是個善良的老人？
他在經濟大蕭條中長大
Why Paul Brown Petty
青年時期應徵入伍參加戰爭
was a good old man
他在外人面前
從未多談這些往事（二戰諾曼底登陸）
He grew up in the depression
但是他穿著軍裝
and he fought in the war
卻著實英姿颯爽
曾今44連的佩蒂長官就是他
He never talked too much
但是你可能會說：“嘿！
about the other shore
這有什麼了不起的，
聽起來就是個普通人嘛。“
But he was real good-looking
他雖然不富有也沒有名氣
in his uniform
但對我來說，他卻很偉大
解甲歸田，他結了婚
Officer Petty in 44
姑娘就住在小街的那頭
他為她在小溪邊蓋了棟房子
And you might say, hey,
生了一個女孩，兩個男孩
what's so great
支撐起了五口之家的生計
Sounds like a simple man
保羅·佩蒂建立起了自己的家庭
他在廣場邊開了一間理髮店
He wasn't rich or famous but
他會安排你坐在
To me, he sure was grand
他的理髮椅上
剪個清涼的夏日板寸
He married a girl
或者把你的鬍鬚刮得很光
from down the street
把你打理的服帖妥當後
才會送你上路
Built her a house down by a creek
但是你可能會說：“嘿！
這還是沒什麼了不起的啊，
One girl, two boys,
聽起來就是個普通人嘛。“
five mouths to feed
他雖然不富有也沒有名氣
但對我來說，他卻很偉大
Paul Brown Petty built a family
他是坎伯蘭郡的教會長老派成員
91歲時他離開了人間，去了天堂
He opened a shop down on the square
有時候當我談起他的時候
我會很傷心
He'd set you on up
因為，保羅·佩蒂
in his barber chair
他是我的爺爺
他的勇氣流淌在我的血液裡
Get a summertime buzz
他的美德在我的眼裡閃現
or a real close shave
如果你看到了我的男性的品質
他就是賜予我這些的人
Get you all cleaned up,
保羅·佩蒂
send you on your way
他是一個善良的老人
如果你和他見個面握個手
And you might say, hey,
你會覺得好一些
what's so great
如果你了解他的話
Sounds like a simple man
你就會理解
為什麼保羅·佩蒂
He wasn't rich or famous but
他是一個善良的老人
To me, he sure was grand
He was a Cumberland Presbyterian
He went up to meet his Maker in 91
Sometimes when I talk about him,
I get sad
You see, Paul Brown Petty
was my granddad
His courage runs down in my blood
His kindness in my eyes
If you can see a man in me
He's the reason why
Paul Brown Petty
was a good old man
You felt a little better
when he shook your hand
And if you could've known him,
you'd understand
Why Paul Brown Petty
was a good old man
