专辑简介：
之前说的都是Alan的嗓音非常棒，非常适合演绎Country Music，其实他的歌词也写得很出色，一点也不逊色于他的旋律和他的声音。Alan出道很晚，1990年，他已经32岁时才发了他的第一张个人专辑《Here in the Real World》。之前他做过汽车销售员、建筑工人和铲车司机这样的工作，生活是比较艰辛的。这段经历让他的歌词中更增添了一份深刻。认真品味Alan的歌词，我们会发现很多让我们感动的东西，因为他是将自己的生活和自己的感情注入他的歌曲中。
这张专辑中的许多歌旋律依然很美，比如Too Much Of A Good Thing，There Ya Go，Strong Enough……但是To Do What I Do，这首歌是我最想推荐的一首。这首歌其实是一首很励志的曲子，歌词写的几乎就是他自己在音乐道路上的奋斗过程。他经历了很多艰辛，但是仍然坚持自己对音乐的信仰，To do what I do，最终获得了成功。（下附歌词）
I've been a waiter, a roofer, a clerk
I've shoveled manure till my pride hurt.
When you're starting out, it's all part of the work
To do what I do.
I've been evicted for not making rent
Made my Daddy wonder where my good sense went.
For the price of a dream, my years have been spent
To do what I do.
So I stand here tonight with this six string guitar
To be something I've always been in my heart.
Just for the chance to play you my song
The thrill when I hear you singing along.
It's been worth everything I've been through
To do what I do.
I've played for empty tables and chairs
The drunks that don't listen, the crowds that don't care.
Been told countless times Boy you ain't goin' nowhere
To do what I do.
So I hope the critics and skeptics alike
All bought a ticket to this show tonight.
And they'll see firsthand that I have survived
And what doesn't kill you makes you more alive.
And I'm one of the fortunate few
To do what I do.
There's so much joy this music can bring
So I count my blessings when I step up to sing.
Cause they're so many people who would give anything
To do what I do.
And I Thank You......
I can do what I do!
