Riding on the city of New Orleans
乘着新奥尔良市号列车前行
Illinois Central Monday morning rail
伊利诺伊中央铁路 周一的清晨
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
十五节车厢载着十五位不安的旅人
Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail
三位列车员与二十五袋邮件
All along the southbound odyssey
沿着南行的漫长旅程
The train pulled out at Kankakee
列车驶离坎卡基站
And rolls along past houses farms and fields
掠过房屋 农场与田野
Passin' trains that have no names
与无数无名列车擦肩而过
And freight yards full of old black men
货场里满是年迈的黑人身影
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles
废车场堆砌着锈蚀的钢铁残骸
Good morning America
早安啊 美利坚
How are you
你可安好
Say don't you know me
难道认不出我吗
I'm your native son
我是你土生土长的孩子
I'm the train they call the city of New Orleans
我是那列名为新奥尔良市的火车
And I'll be gone five hundred miles
即将穿越五百英里的苍茫
When the day is done
当白昼消逝
Dealin' card games with the old men in the club car
在车厢里与老人们玩着纸牌游戏
Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score
一分钱一局 无人计较输赢
Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
传递着装着酒瓶的纸袋
Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor
感受车轮在脚下隆隆作响
And the sons of Pullman Porters
那些普尔曼列车员的儿子们
And the sons of engineers
那些工程师的后代们
Ride their father's magic carpet made of steel
乘着父辈们钢铁铸就的魔毯
Mothers with their babes asleep
母亲怀抱着熟睡的婴孩
Are rockin' to the gentle beat
随着轻柔的节奏轻轻摇摆
And the rhythm of the rail is all they feel
铁轨的韵律就是她们的全部世界
Good morning America
早安啊 美利坚
How are you
你可安好
Say don't you know me
难道认不出我吗
I'm your native son
我是你土生土长的孩子
I'm the train they call the city of New Orleans
我是那列名为新奥尔良市的火车
I'll be gone five hundred miles
我将远行五百里
When the day is done
当白昼消逝
Nighttime on the city of New Orleans
新奥尔良市的夜色中
Changing cars in Memphis Tennessee
在孟菲斯换乘车厢
Half way home we'll be there by morning
拂晓前就能抵达故乡
Through the Mississippi darkness
穿越密西西比的黑夜
Rolling down to the sea
向着大海奔涌而去
But all the towns and people seem
但所有城镇与人们仿佛
To fade into a bad dream
渐渐沉入噩梦之中
And the steel rails still ain't heard the news
钢铁轨道仍未听闻世事变迁
The conductor sings his songs again
列车长再次哼起他的歌谣
The passengers will please refrain
乘客们请保持安静
This train has got the disappearing railroad blues
这趟列车载着消逝的铁路蓝调
Good night America
晚安了 美利坚
How are you
你可安好
Say don't you know me
难道认不出我吗
I'm your native son
我是你土生土长的孩子
I'm the train they call the city of New Orleans
我是那列名为新奥尔良市的火车
I'll be gone five hundred miles
我将远行五百里
When the day is done
当白昼消逝
