ZZ Top是一支来自美国德克萨斯州休斯敦的摇滚乐队，成立于1969年，由比利·吉伯斯（Billy Gibbons）、德斯蒙德·海尔（Dusty Hill）和弗兰克·贝尔（Frank Beard）组成，他们被称为“至尊芝加哥小组”（The Best Little Band from Texas）。其中，吉伯斯和海尔同时也是乐队的主唱。 《Rough Boy》是ZZ Top的一首单曲，收录在他们1985年的专辑《Afterburner》中。该曲的吉他谱一经推出，即受到广大吉他手的追捧，并被誉为摇滚吉他的经典之作。 据悉，《Rough Boy》的创作背景来源于吉伯斯在洛杉矶一个寂静的深夜踩车沿街而过时，看到了一名身着皮革衣、长发披肩的女子，从而获得了这首歌曲的灵感。歌曲的旋律和歌词在传达浪漫和时尚的同时，也充满了“乡土”的味道。 以下是《Rough Boy》的歌词，其中表达了对那位俊俏男子的祈求和渴望： What in the world's come over me? Seems like I'm losing my mind It's gettin' hard to be around you There's so much I can't define Wish I could be what you are If I could find a way Wish I could be close to you But you're so far away So far away Flyin' high in your silver phase With diamonds and everlasting grace A ship of fools in your reckless ways Goin' nowhere, oh so fast Wish I could be what you are If I could find a way Wish I could be close to you But you're so far away So far away Too many nights I've turned to stone In your arms I'm far away And in my mind I curse the hold Just the price I've got to pay And still I can't escape your gaze Still I find it so amazing At times I can't see straight Pity the fool that stands in your way 歌词表达了对那位“粗犷男孩”的渴望和向往，但却又表明了相互之间的距离和无法跨越的天堑。这首歌发扬了ZZ Top一贯的摇滚精神，将甜蜜和苦涩的情感融于一体，蕴含着深刻的内涵和意义。
