Long Time Gone
The Chicks
Long Time Gone 歌詞
Daddy sits on a' front porch swinging
爸爸坐在門廊的鞦韆上
Looking out on a vacant field
看著那些空曠的田野
Used to be filled with burley tobacca
那裡曾種植著煙草
Now he knows it never will
他現在知道,永遠不會這樣了
My Brothers found work in Indiana
我的哥哥在印第安納找了份工作
My Sisters a nurse at the old folks home
我的姐姐是個老家的護士
Mama still cooking too much for supper
媽媽的晚飯仍舊做的很多
And me I've been a long time gone
而我已經離家很久
Been a long time gone
離開很久
No, I ain't hoed a row since I don't know when
不,我還未找到方向,我已經
Long time gone
離開很久
And it ain't coming back again
而那些失去的都不會再回來了
達莉亞彈奏著教堂的老鋼琴
Deliah plays that old church piano
坐在她爸爸的農場裡
Sitting out on her daddy's farm
她總是在想我們會在一起
She always thought that we'd be together
上帝,我從未想過要傷害她
Lord I never meant to do her harm
說她能聽見我在合唱團裡唱歌
Said she could hear me singin' in the choir
我聽到了另一首歌
Me, I heard another song
我隨著風在路上奔跑著
I caught wind and hit the road runnin'
上帝,我已經離開這裡很久了
And Lord, I've been a long time gone
離開很久
Been a long time gone
上帝,不知何時開始我就從未祈禱過了
Lord, I ain't had a prayer since I don't know when
離開很久
Long time gone
它們也不會回來了
And it ain' t comin' back again
現在我去往納什維爾
試著去做筆大生意
Now me, I went to Nashville,
在百老匯玩耍
Tryin' to beat the big deal
用最困難的方式到達那裡
Playin' down on Broadway
在小屋裡蝸居
Gettin' there the hard way
睡在汽車裡
Living from a tip jar
抱著我的吉他
Sleeping in my car
耶,我會成為明星的
Hocking my guitar
現在我和達莉亞每個週日都會唱歌
Yeah I'm gonna be a star
看著孩子們和植物慢慢成長
Now, me and Deliah singing every Sunday
我們聽著收音機裡的音樂
Watching the children and the garden grow
但音樂不能沒有靈魂
We listen to the radio to hear what's cookin'
現在他們聽起來很疲憊,但並不憔悴
But the music ain't got no soul
他們有錢,但沒有現金
Now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard
他們有青春,但並不強壯
They've got money but they don't have Cash
我想,我想,我想
They got Junior but they don't have Hank
剩下的時間會很長
I think, I think, I think
不,曾幾何時我就不知道天高地厚了
The rest is a long time gone
離開很久
No, I ain't hit the roof since I don't know when
不會回來的
Long time gone
我說我已離開很久
And it ain't coming back
我已經很久沒按過喇叭了
I said a long time gone
離開很久
No, I ain't honked the horn since I don't know when
而那些失去的都不會再回來了
Long time gone
我說我已離開很久,離開很久
And it ain't coming back again
已經很長時間了
離開很久,離開很久
I said a long time, long time, long time gone
哦,我已經離開很久了
Well it's been a long time
離開很久,離開很久
Long time, long time, long time gone
Oh, it's been a long time gone
Long time, long time, long time gone
Yeah yeah
