My Home Town - The Hit Co.
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I was eight years old
那年我八岁
And running with
攥着一枚硬币
A dime in my hand
在小巷里奔跑
Into the bus stop to pick
奔向公交站
Up a paper for my old man
为父亲买份报纸
I'd sit on his lap
我常坐在他膝上
In that big old Buick
在那辆老别克车里
Steer as we drove through town
假装驾驶穿过小镇
Tousle my hair
轻抚我的发梢
And say son take
说着 孩子你要
A good look around
好好看清这一切
This is your hometown
这是你的故乡
This is your hometown
这是你的故乡
This is your hometown
这是你的故乡
This is your hometown
这是你的故乡
In '65 tension was running high
六五年时 冲突一触即发
At my high school
在我高中时代
There was a lot of fights
冲突不断上演
Between the black and white
黑白种族之间
There was nothing you could do
谁都无力改变
Two cars at a light
两车停靠路口
On a Saturday night
某个周六夜晚
In the back seat there was a gun
后座藏着枪械
Words were passed
恶语相向时刻
In a shotgun blast
枪声骤然响起
Troubled times had come to my hometown
动荡岁月降临我故乡
My hometown
我的故乡啊
My hometown
我的故乡啊
To my hometown
回到我故乡
Now Main Street's whitewashed windows and vacant stores
主街橱窗粉刷如新 店铺却已人去楼空
Seems like there ain't nobody
仿佛再没有人
Wants to come down here no more
愿意在此驻足停留
They're closing down the textile mill
纺织厂的大门正在关闭
Across the railroad tracks
就在铁路轨道的那端
Foreman says these jobs are going boys
工头说这些工作机会就要消失
And they ain't coming back
它们再也不会回来
To your hometown
回到你的家乡
Your hometown
你的家乡
To your hometown
回到你的家乡
To your hometown
回到你的家乡
Last night me and Kate we laid in bed
昨夜我与凯特躺在床上
Talking about getting out
商量着离开这个地方
Packing up our bags maybe heading south
收拾行囊或许南下远方
I'm thirty-five we got a boy of our own now
三十五岁的我们已有了自己的儿郎
Last night I sat him up behind the wheel
昨晚我让他坐在方向盘前
And said son take a good look around
对他说孩子好好看看这方
This is your hometown
这是你的故乡
