Good mornin', Dearly Beloved
We are gathered here today
To watch two people we know make a big mistake
They'll stand up at the alter
And solemnly swear I Do
They'll be together forever
'Til they find somebody new
Her daddy's in the front row
Mutterin' oh no, here we go again
We had a couple dates
Now she's three months late
And it's twenty buck a plate i spent, oh...
Good mornin' dearly beloved
I'd like to welcome ya'll
To see the side-effects of * and alcohol
Please bow your heads and join me
In a prayer for these two
Who'll be together forever
'Til they find somebody new
The bride is a flirt and the groom is worse
As he's putting the ring on her
He's checkin' out the bridesmaids
Thinkin' that he might take
The maid of honor's honor...oh
Welcome, dearly beloved
We are here this afternoon
To throw rice as these two
Drive down the road to ruin
With cans tied to the bumper
And a dragging muffler, too
They'll be together forever
'Til they find somebody new
So raise your glass and join me
Here's to the bride and groom
They'll be together foreeeverrr...
'Til they find somebody new [/COLOR]
这是一张Faith Hill回归自我的专辑,首支主打歌《Mississippi Girl》从其歌名就可以感受到这一点,但这也并非是一张守成专辑,Faith Hill还是不时的在自己的音乐中揉杂一些新尝试,比如有些节奏性的元素穿插体现在编曲中。而且歌曲的内容上也照顾了目前流行音乐人最为关注的方面,比如,关于战争与美国的《We’ve Got Nothing But Love To Prove》,在“情比金坚”式的歌名之后是关于儿童的关怀,反战的词句,以及对美国的理想,甚至作者在对歌词的创作中还明显的受到约翰·列侬经典《Imagine》的影响——“I KNOW THAT I, I’M JUST A DREAMER”。但是这些东西并没有冲淡专辑的乡村特色,专辑中最优秀的单曲之一的《Dearly Beloved》就带有浓浓的乡村情调
