Readjustment Blues - John Denver (约翰·丹佛)
Just out of the infantry this morning
今早刚离开步兵团
I had to pay my dues across the sea
我就要远隔重洋去服役了
But no one back in boot camp ever warned me
但是从来没有人提醒过我
What the readjustment blues would do to me
会对我做什么调整
"Welcome to Havannah" said the pilot
欢迎来到哈瓦那，领航员说
"We must have made a wrong turn on the way "
我们一定是走错路了
"Let's buy some cigars and keep it quiet
让我们抽支雪茄平静一下
If they don't know we're here we'll get away "
如果他们不知道我们在哪儿，我们就会逃跑
Just as I had realized he was joking
我刚反应过来他是开玩笑的
I saw we were in Washington D C
我想象我们在华盛顿
'Cause there was all the patriotic buildings
因为那里有爱国者的建筑
Just like I had seen them on T V
就像我在电视上看到的一样
It must have been a holiday
那一定是假期的时光
'Cause there was this parade
因为那就是天堂
People carried signs I couldn't read that they had made
人们拿着我看不懂的标志
'Till I got closer and my heart fell to my socks;
直到我离得更近，我的心碎了
There was a battle raging and
一场战争正在酝酿
The air was filled with teargas and rocks
空气中弥漫着催泪瓦斯和灰尘
There was the flag I'd fought against so often
我将会为那面旗帜而奋斗
The one I fought for hanging upside down
在外面升升降降的那面旗帜
The wind was blowing hard the dirt was flying
狂风怒吼，卷起尘土飞扬
It made the city sky look dark and brown
天空看起来又黑又暗
I saw a girl she could have been my sister
我看见一个女孩，她可能是我的妹妹
Except her hair was long and in her face
除了长头发和她脸上的表情
She explained this was a demonstration
她解释说这将是一场灾难
Against the war and for the human race
反对战争，为人类进步而奋斗
Now I've seen a lot of strange things in my travels
在我的旅途中，已经见过了很多奇怪的东西
Cannibals yes and aliens galore
有食人族，是的，还有很多外星人
But I never thought I'd see so many people
我从没想过我会见这么多人
Saying we don't want your + + + war
呼喊着，我们拒绝战争
The troops all had on uniforms
军队穿着整齐的制服
Just like the one I'd worn
就像我曾经穿过的一样
But they were all domestic and my duty chose war
他们都是国民，这是我的战争使命
They carried guns just like the ones across the sea
他们带着枪，就像穿越海洋时一样
Except this time I was the citizen
而我现在只是一个市民
And they were pointing their guns at me
他们用枪指着我
Yes I was just a citizen and
是的，我只是一个市民
I was walking down the street
在街上走着
And it was just then that the Readjustment Blues
这就是对我的调整
Got through to me
这难倒我了
