- Jim Croce Railroad Song 歌词
- Jim Croce
- When I was a boy
当我还是个男孩时
in the days of the train
在有火车驶过的日子里
I'd sit by the tracks
我常坐在铁轨边
on a long summer day
在漫长的夏日里
And I'd wave to the brakeman
我还常向火车制动员挥手致意
And he'd wave back at me
他也常常向我挥手回应
While the thunderclouds rolled
那时雷雨云滚滚
out of East Tennessee
飘过东田纳西
But the dreams of a boy
但是男孩的梦想啊
disappear when you're grown
在你长大后就会逝去
And though I may dream
尽管我的梦可能还没有逝去
the railroads are gone
铁路却已消失了
The ties they are rotten
枕木它们腐烂了
and the tracks shot to hell
铁轨它们被炸飞
Along with my dreams
一同消失的，还有我的梦想
and the old railroad bell
以及铁路边老旧的铃铛
In my dreams I ride
在我的梦中
the rails to California
我乘着火车前去加利福尼亚
Workin' diners and farms along the way
一路上在铁路边的小饭店和农场工作
Or I'd hop to ride to
或者跳到马上
hide across the border
骑着马一路躲藏穿过边境
With a black eyed girl
有一位黑瞳孔的女孩
beside me all the way
一路上陪伴着我
Now the mountains are silent
现在，群山寂静
and the railroads are gone
铁路已经消失
And the coal towns no longer
产煤的小镇再也不能
hear the miners at dawn
在黎明时分听见矿工们的声音
But the train whistle shrills
火车汽笛呼啸着
out her memories to me
把我从她的记忆里抹去
While the thunderclouds rolled
那时雷雨云滚滚
out of East Tennessee
飘过东田纳西
In my dreams I ride the
在我的梦中
rails to California
我乘着火车前去加利福尼亚
Workin' diners and farms
沿途在铁路边的
along the way
小饭店和农场工作
Or I'd hop a ride to

hide across the border
一路躲藏穿过边境
With a black eyed girl

beside me all the way

Now the mountains are silent

and the railroads are gone

But the train whistle shrills

out her memories to me

While the thunderclouds roll
