Victim Of Life's Circumstances

Vince Gill

Transposer:

It?s 6:05 AM on Sunday morning I was supposed to leave for Memphis late last night But I stopped at one of those highway places Cause I did I’m sleepin’ in Tarrant County jail tonight Well I started tonight with good intentions But I ended up getting sideways drink’n wine Well the last thing I remembered we was rollin? Till something hit my head and knocked me From my conscious mind And I’m a victim of life’s circumstances Well I was raised around bar rooms and Friday night dances Singing them old country songs And half the time endin? up some place I don’t belong I said jailer hey what you’ll got me charged with He looked at me and halfway closed one eye Well he said to me you say you don’t remember Cuttin’ up some fool with that long handle knife Chorus

La chanson raconte l’histoire d’un homme qui, après une soirée où il avait de bonnes intentions, se retrouve dans une situation regrettable à cause de l'alcool. Au lieu de se rendre à Memphis comme prévu, il finit par passer la nuit en prison après avoir perdu le contrôle et causé des dommages. Il évoque son passé, marqué par les bars et les danses, illustrant comment son environnement l’a façonné et l’a souvent conduit à des situations où il se sent hors de place. Au final, il se considère comme une victime des circonstances de la vie, soulignant la fragilité de ses choix.
