Trace Adkins - One Nightstand [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Well it ain't home
But it will have to do for a while
Got a fold down bed
Two windows on the parking lot
Three plates in the kitchenette
A table and chair where i can eat
A little black-and-white TV
A shower stall and a bathroom sink
And one two-drawer nightstand
Barely enough room to be a man

[Chorus]
And on the nightstand
Sits a photograph
Of my wife and kids
Reminding me of how good it was
And right now, how bad it is
Beside it there's a coffee cup
Where I keep my wedding ring and stuff
And some nights it still keeps me up
How I got where I am
Funny how a man's life can be reduced
To one nightstand

[Verse 2]
On the fifth of last November
On a business trip in strangers
Alone for the night
She said "hi I'm Angie
And I'm from Boston
Would you drink a beer with me
If I bought them?"
So I hit the hotel bar with her
Figured, what would it hurt?

[Chorus]
Sitting on the bed
Leaning against the wall
With a bible and a gun
One of them was going to save me
The only question was which one
So I got down on my shaking knees
Asked the Lord forgive me please
Dropped the gun and grabbed my keys
That picture and my wedding band
Funny how a man's life can all come down
To one nightstand

[Outro]
One nightstand [x2]
