[00:00.00]Measure Of A Man(Complete version originally performed by Jack Ingram) - Various Artists (欧美群星)
[00:17.99]When I was fifteen I left home young
[00:22.63]Tore up the tracks and then some
[00:26.76]Me and my dad didn't see eye to eye
[00:30.81]I never took to him he never took the time
[00:35.83]Bullet proof more than tough
[00:40.35]Smarter than he ever was
[00:43.54]Well I burned those wheels down the highway
[00:47.77]And I learned what I learned the hard way
[00:52.18]Do the best you can do love many trust few
[00:56.64]Work hard for the money in your hands
[01:02.15]That's the measure of a man
[01:06.70]Yeah the measure of a man
[01:13.12]Anger burns love cools it down
[01:17.17]Pretty young woman turned my head around
[01:21.39]The world through her eyes looked so different
[01:25.63]She lives on faith and she looks for forgiveness
[01:30.66]Fool proof it ain't easy
[01:34.45]I need her she needs me
[01:38.27]And she stole my heart on this highway
[01:42.84]She taught me to love through the hard days
[01:47.02]Yeah she's cool when I'm not
[01:49.23]She's as steady as a rock
[01:51.44]She's as solid as the ring on my hand
[01:56.85]That's the measure of a man
[02:01.27]Yeah the measure of a man
[02:16.65]Last night she handed me a son of my own
[02:20.35]It killed me to do it but I picked up the phone
[02:26.39]Hey dad I burned ten years down this highway
[02:30.87]And I learned what I learned the hard way
[02:35.29]Truth is I need you we'll cry if we need to
[02:39.65]And I'll swallow my pride if you can
[02:45.14]That's the measure of a man
[02:48.50]Oh yeah the measure of a man
