Where I'm From - Oklahoma Sky
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
A On three hour flight from Memphis to LA
从孟菲斯飞往洛杉矶的三小时航程
I was silently celebrating my first class upgrade
我暗自庆幸升舱至头等席位
Laughing at my jeans and my boots
低头看着牛仔裤与旧皮靴发笑
Beside those high dollar shoes and Armani suits
周围尽是锃亮皮鞋与阿玛尼西装
When the gentleman next to me said the drinks up here are free
邻座绅士说这里的酒水免费供应
So if you'd like the first one can be on me
若你愿意 第一杯就让我来请
He said i'm headin back from business in New York and Rome
他说刚结束纽约罗马的商务旅程
Tell me son Where do you call
孩子 说说你的家乡在何方
I said I'm from the front pew of a wooden white church
我说我来自那座白木教堂的前排长椅
The courthouse clock it still don't work
法院的钟楼时钟依然停摆
Where a man's word means everything
在那里 男人的承诺重若千钧
Where moms and dads were high school flings
在那里 父母曾是校园恋人
Gave their children grandmothers maiden name
孩子们随了外祖母的姓氏
Yes it may not sound like much
或许听起来平淡无奇
But it's where I'm from
但那就是我的根
So we drank that round and then another
我们一杯接一杯对饮
There wasn't a topic in this world we did not cover
这世上没有我们未曾谈及的话题
He said I headed out west when I was barely 19
他说他十九岁就只身西行
Just a kid chasing my dreams
那时还是个追梦少年
And I said I'm flying out here to pick up my big brother
我说我此行是为接回兄长
He's been fighting the cancer they discovered
他正与突如其来的病魔抗争
But he called last night and said I think this is the end
昨夜来电说他已到生命尽头
So come take me home to my family and my friends
求我带他回到亲友身旁
Where the quarterback dates the homecoming queen
四分卫与返校节女王相恋的地方
The truck's a ford and the tractor's green
卡车是福特 拖拉机漆成绿装
And Amazing Grace is what we sing
我们总爱唱《奇异恩典》这首圣诗
Well there's a county fair every fall
每年秋天都举办郡集市场
And your friends are there every time you call
每通电话都能唤来好友相帮
Yeah it may not sound like much but it's
或许听起来平淡无奇 但这就是
Where I'm from
我生长的地方
And as we stood to claim the bags we checked
当我们起身认领托运的行李箱
He said I'll pray for your brother and did I mention that
他说我会为你兄弟祈祷 还有件事忘了提
Italian suits haven't always been my style
意大利西装并非一直是我的风格
See I was quarterback of my high school team
要知道我曾是高中校队四分卫
We took state back in '63
我们在63年赢得州冠军
And my wife she's still my homecoming queen
我的妻子至今仍是返校节女王
Cause I'm from the front pew of a wooden white church
因为我来自白色木教堂的第一排长椅
A courthouse clock that still don't work
市政厅的钟表至今仍停摆
Where a man's word means everything
在那里 男人的承诺重若千钧
Where moms and dads wear high school flings
那里的父母都穿着高中时代的旧衣裳
Gave their children grandmothers maiden name
孩子们随了外祖母的姓氏
Yes it may not sound like much
或许听起来平淡无奇
I said it may not sound like much but it's where i'm from
我说这或许微不足道 但这就是我的故乡
It's where i'm from
这就是我的根
It's where I'm from
这就是我的来处
