City of New Orleans - The Hit Co.
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Riding on the City of New Orleans
乘坐着新奥尔良城市号列车
Illinois Central Monday morning rail
伊利诺伊中央铁路的周一清晨
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
十五节车厢载着十五位不安的旅客
Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail
三位列车员和二十五袋邮件
All along the southbound odyssey
沿着南行的漫长旅途
The train pulls out at Kankakee
列车缓缓驶离坎卡基
And rolls along past houses, farms and fields
穿过房屋、农场和田野
Passin' trains that have no names
与无名列车擦肩而过
And freight yards full of old black men
货运场里满是年迈的黑人身影
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles
废弃汽车的坟场锈迹斑斑
Good morning America how are you?
早安啊美国 你可安好?
See, don't you know me I'm your native son
看啊 我是你土生土长的孩子
I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans
人们叫我"新奥尔良城市"号列车
And I'll be gone five hundred miles
当白昼逝去时
When the day is done
我已驶过五百英里
Dealin' card games with the old men in the club car
在俱乐部车厢与老人们玩着纸牌
Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score
赌注虽小却无人计较输赢
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
还有火车司机的后代们
Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel
乘着父辈钢铁铸就的魔法飞毯
Mothers with their babes asleep
母亲怀抱着熟睡的婴孩
Are rockin' to the gentle beat
随着轻柔的节拍轻轻摇晃
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel
铁轨的节奏是他们唯一的感受
Good morning America how are you?
早安啊美国 你可安好?
See, don't you know me I'm your native son
看啊 我是你土生土长的孩子
I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans
人们叫我"新奥尔良城市"号列车
I'll be gone five hundred miles
当白昼结束时
When the day is done
我已驶过五百英里
Nighttime on The City of New Orleans
夜幕笼罩着"新奥尔良城市"号列车
Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee
在田纳西州孟菲斯换乘车厢
Half way home, we'll be there by morning
归途过半 黎明时分终将抵达
Through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea
穿越密西西比的黑夜 奔向海洋
But all the towns and people
但沿途城镇与人们
Seem to fade into a bad dream
都渐渐隐入噩梦般的幻影
And the steel rails still ain't heard the news
钢铁轨道仍未听闻这消息
The conductor sings his song again,
列车长再次唱起他的歌谣
The passengers will please refrain
乘客们请保持安静
This train's got the disappearing railroad blues
这列火车载着消逝的铁路蓝调
Good morning America how are you?
早安啊美国 你可安好?
See, don't you know me I'm your native son
看啊 我是你土生土长的孩子
I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans
人们叫我"新奥尔良城市"号列车
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
当夜幕降临 我已驶过五百英里
