The American Dream - Andy Lee Lang
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Well the sun's settin' on the veranda
夕阳正洒落在游廊上
As the ceilin' fan stirs the air
吊扇轻摇 搅动微凉
I pour me another what I've been drinkin'
我为自己再斟一杯酒
Sit back in my wicker chair
闲适地窝进柳条椅中
She's still in that big house in Houston
她仍困在休斯顿的豪宅里
Where we tried to find happiness
那儿曾是我们追寻幸福的地方
Somehow I know she would not understand
我深知她永远无法理解
If she could see me like this
若看见我此刻的模样
There's no lawn to mow 'cause the grass doesn't grow
无需修剪草坪 因为青草不再生长
People get high every day
人们每日悠然自得
It's a little bit hotter ya can't drink the water
这里更炎热 饮水需谨慎
A dollar still goes a long way
一美元仍能走很远
Tequila is sweet senoritas are neat
龙舌兰甜美 姑娘们可人
And peace of mind is free
心灵平静无需代价
Yeah two hundred miles south of the border
就在边境以南两百英里处
I found the American dream
我找到了美国梦
We thought we'd found it in Houston
我们曾以为在休斯顿找到了归宿
With the house and the cars and the pool
豪宅香车与泳池相伴
Sometimes people own things sometimes things own you
有时是人占有物质 有时是物质囚禁人
I won't even bother to write her
我甚至懒得给她写信
She'd hate it down here anyhow
反正她定会厌恶这南方小镇
She can have all the things we had together
那些共同拥有的浮华都留给她吧
I won't be needin' them now
如今我已不再需要
There's no lawn to mow 'cause the grass doesn't grow
无需修剪草坪 因为青草不再生长
People get high every day
人们每日悠然自得
It's a little bit hot
这里有点炎热
Tequila is sweet senoritas are neat
龙舌兰甜美 姑娘们可人
And peace of mind is free
心灵平静无需代价
Yeah two hundred miles south of the border
就在边境以南两百英里处
I found the American dream
我找到了美国梦
Yeah two hundred miles south of the border
就在边境以南两百英里处
I found the American dream
我找到了美国梦
