〈喬伊快跑〉(Run Joey Run) -大衛蓋茲(David Geddes)詞曲演唱


Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
老爸請別這樣,這不是他的錯,他對我情深意重
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married...just you wait and see.
老爸請別這樣,我和他將結成連理...你等著瞧吧


Every night, the same old dream. I hate to close my eyes
每晚做著同樣的夢,我不願闔上雙眼
I can't erase the memory. The sound of Julie's cry
我無法抹去這段記憶,還有朱莉哭喊的聲音


She called me up, late last night, she said Joe, don't come over
昨夜深更,她打電話給我,她說喬,不要過來
My dad and I just had a fight, and he stormed out the door
我爸和我起了爭執,他破門而入
I've never seen him act his this way, my God, he's going crazy
我從未見過他這樣的行為,我的老天,他已抓狂
He says he's gonna make you pay, for what we've done, he's got a gun, so
他說,他要你為我們所做的付出代價,他拿著槍,所以
Run Joey Run Joey Run
喬伊快跑,喬伊快跑


Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
老爸請別這樣,這不是他的錯,他對我情深意重
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married...just you wait and see.
老爸請別這樣,我和他將結成連理...你等著瞧吧


I got in my car and I drove like mad, till I reached Julie's place
我坐上我的車,一路狂飆,直抵朱莉的家
She ran to me, with tears in her eyes, and bruises on her face
她噙著淚水跑向我,滿臉淤傷
All at once, I saw him there, sneaking up behind me, WATCH OUT!
瞬間,我看到他在那裡,偷偷地跟著我,「小心」
Then Julie yelled, he's got a gun, and she stepped in front of me
朱莉喊著,他有槍,她快步擋在我身前
Suddenly, a shot rang out, and I saw Julie falling
霎時,槍聲響起,我看見朱莉倒下
I ran to her, I held her close, when I looked down, my hands were red,
我跑向她,緊擁著她,當我低頭,我的雙手嫣紅
and here's the last words Julie said...
朱莉臨終遺言這麼說著


Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
老爸請別這樣,這不是他的錯,他對我情深意重
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married...aaahhh...ahhhh…
老爸請別這樣,我和他將結成連理啊呦啊呦
Run Joey run Joey run Joey run Joey run Joey run
喬伊快跑,喬伊快跑,喬伊快跑,喬伊快跑

這首〈喬伊快跑〉(Run Joey Run)描繪父親無意間發現女兒朱莉與男孩喬伊的姦情後,兩造間的衝突悲劇,透過朱莉與喬伊之口交錯娓娓道出這齣人倫慘劇。


1975年,大衛蓋茲(David Geddes)創作演唱的〈喬伊快跑〉(Run Joey Run)是首懺情悲歌,比1960年雷彼得森(Ray Peterson)所唱紅的〈告訴蘿拉我愛她〉(Tell Laura I love her)更加濫情。距青少年輓歌鼎盛時期約有十年之久,大衛蓋茲重彈此風,1975該曲曾高居排行榜的第4名。兩首曲子共通之處,就是男主角都未聽從女友的勸告,而造成悲劇。兩曲亦均有世代間的衝突,喬伊未獲朱莉老爸接納,湯米則想贏得獎金,讓未來的丈母娘刮目相看。朱莉老爸為何不接受喬伊與女兒的戀情,在〈喬伊快跑〉歌中並未交代。或許朱莉老爸發現了女兒的避孕藥,或是朱莉懷孕小腹隆起,也可能是朱莉與喬伊的親密拍立得合照被老爸無意中發現。但無論如何,戀情與親情的衝突,在父權高漲又擁槍自重的衝動下,悲劇已不可避免。


雖然此曲情節比〈告訴蘿拉我愛她〉還要濫情灑狗血,不過大衛蓋茲(David Geddes)的敘事技巧仍頗不凡。主要敘述者為小男友喬伊,但在開頭朱莉與父親的對話,每段尾聲與歌曲結尾都穿插著亡者朱莉的吶喊:「喬伊快跑,喬伊快跑‧‧‧


當年神鷹唱片盜版的〈喬伊快跑〉這張黑膠唱片早已聽爛丟棄了,但獨特的漫畫式唱片封面還特別保留起來,可惜一場納莉風災,隨著所有黑膠唱片付諸流水。


大衛蓋茲(David Geddes)可是美國抒情歌曲界響噹噹的人物,他是麵包合唱團(Bread)的主唱及吉他手,他1971年創作的〈如果〉(If)1972年的〈吉他手〉(Guitar man),還有後來的再見女郎(Goodbye Girl)都是抒情雋永的傳世之作。


這首〈喬伊快跑〉還成為免費線上遊戲的名字:
