Lyrics
Not ready to make nice by Dixie Chicks
Forgive, sounds good.
Forget, I'm not sure I could.
They say time heals everything,
But I'm still waiting.
I'm through with doubt,
There's nothing left for me to figure out.
I've paid a price,
And I'll keep paying.
I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down ,
I'm still mad as hell,
And I don't have time,
To go round and round and round.
It's too late to make it right.
I probably wouldn't if I could,
Cause I'm mad as hell,
Can't bring myself to do what it is,
You think I should.
I know you said,
Why can't you just get over it.
It turned my whole world around,
And I kind of like it.
I made my bed, and I sleep like a baby,
With no regrets and I don't mind saying,
It's a sad sad story,
When a mother will teach her daughter,
That she ought to hate a perfect stranger.
And how in the world,
Can the words that I said,
Send somebody so over the edge,
That they'd write me a letter,
Saying that I better shut up and sing,
Or my life will be over.
I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell,
And I don't have time,
To go round and round and round.
It's too late to make it right.
I probably wouldn't if I could,
Cause I'm mad as hell,
Can't bring myself to do what it is,
You think I should.
I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell,
And I don't have time,
To go round and round and round.
It's too late to make it right.
I probably wouldn't if I could,
Cause I'm mad as hell,
Can't bring myself to do what it is,
You think I should.
What it is,
You think I should.
Forgive, sounds good.
Forget, I'm not sure I could.
They say time heals everything,
But I'm still waiting.
Words and phrases
1. Dixie Chicks：美国乡村女子乐队“南方小鸡”，又称“狄克西女子合唱团”。
美国俚语中，“chick”表示“少女或少妇”，由此，“Dixie Chicks”有时也被称为“南方妞儿”。
“Dixie”常用来指代美国南部各州，因19世纪末一首颇为流行的歌曲“I wish I was in Dixie”被大众广泛接受。词源上，有观点认为，dixie源于法语词“dix”（10）。此外，新奥尔良地方银行发行的10美元钞票上也曾一度出现过“dix”字样。
2. be through with：结束、与…不再有联系
都说现在分手率、离婚率奇高，短语“be through with”这时似乎也可大派用场，如：I'm through with him.（我已经同他分手了。）
