当收到这首Big Steve的歌词时，大概浏览了一下歌词，试着去理解歌词大意，发现歌词的英文里面很多意思不是很懂，但看着歌词同时听着这首歌，仿佛瞬间看到了Big Steve这个艺人的在酒吧卖艺和演绎的生活写照，仿佛想象到Big Steve在卖艺的那个场景，每一个动作，每一个表情以及对生活的态度，简单而朴素。也许他背后还有这许许多多的故事。
突然很感动，更加爱上这首歌。
最后，感谢Eric Brace,你们的音乐很棒。
歌词和视频如下：
BIG STEVE
Big Steve stands at the door and says
Five dollars please
He’s six foot eight so people rarely disagree
He smiles at all the socialites out on the town
Says thank you very much Now y’all can go sit down
Big Steve has a beard, it hangs down to his chest
He works nights so every day’s a day of rest
Ain’t no use in asking, he wont cut a deal
That money’s for the band and it’s a sin to steal
CHORUS
Maybe you came for the music
At the end of the night you will leave
When they play the last song, the crowd will move on
And the music goes home with big steve
Big Steve holds the door when it’s time to go
Says y’all come back, tomorrow night’s another show
Counts the fives and tens and twenties carefully
Administrates the great neon economy
The owner checks to make sure all the doors are locked
The waitress has a drink now that she’s off the clock
The singer and the band are headed somewhere else
Big Steve waits on the bus, singing to himself
CHORUS/CHORUS
Then…
When they play the last song, and the crowd is all gone
The music goes home with Big Steve
