- Don McLean American Pie 歌詞
- Don McLean
- A long long time ago
我依然記得從前那段時光
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
音樂總使我臉上泛起微笑
And I knew if I had my chance
而我知道假如我有機會
That I could make those people dance
讓那些人翩翩起舞
And maybe theyd be happy for a while.
或許他們會開心一陣子
But February made me shiver
但二月讓我不停顫抖
With every paper Id deliver
伴隨我送出的每份報紙
Bad news on the doorstep
壞消息躺在門口
I couldnt take one more step
我動彈不得
I cant remember if I cried
我記不起自己是否哭過
When I read about his widowed bride
在我得知他遺孀的消息時
But something touched me deep inside
但有些事深深觸動了我
The day the music died
那一天音樂已死去
那麼再見吧美國派小姐
So Bye-bye Miss American Pie
開著我的雪弗蘭前往堤岸
Drove my chevy to the levee
然而堤岸早就乾涸
But the levee was dry
那些老男孩喝著黑麥威士忌
And them good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
唱著：有朝一日我將逝去
Singin thisll be the day that I die
有朝一日我將逝去
Thisll be the day that I die
愛之書是你寫的嗎
Did you write the Book of Love
假如聖經告訴你這些
And do you have faith in God above
你會信仰上帝嗎
If the Bible tells you so
你會相信搖滾嗎
Do you believe in rock n roll
音樂能拯救你終將死去的靈魂嗎
Can music save your mortal soul
你能教我怎麼慢慢舞蹈嗎
And can you teach me how to dance real slow
好吧我知道你已經愛上了他
Well I know that youre in love with him
因為我看到你們在健身房雙雙起舞
Cause I saw you dancin in the gym
還踢掉了你們的舞鞋
You both kicked off your shoes
哥們我終於搞懂了節奏藍調
Man I dig those rhythm and blues
我曾是個孤獨少年
I was a lonely teenage broncin buck
伴著一朵粉色康乃馨和一輛皮卡車
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
但我知道自己不夠幸運
But I knew I was out of luck
那一天音樂已死去
The day the music died
我開始歌唱
I started singin
再見吧美國派小姐
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
開著我的雪弗蘭前往堤岸
Drove my chevy to the levee
然而堤岸早就乾涸
But the levee was dry
那些老男孩喝著黑麥威士忌
And them good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
唱著：有朝一日我將逝去
Singin thisll be the day that I die
有朝一日我將逝去
Thisll be the day that I die
十年後的現在屬於我們
滾石上生長著苔蘚
Now for ten years weve been on our own
但已不是當年的樣子
And moss grows fat on a rollin stone
當那小丑向國王與王后獻唱時
But thats not how it used to be
他穿著向詹姆斯迪恩借來的外套
When the jester sang for the King and Queen
聲音卻來自你我之間
In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
哦，當國王點頭之時
And a voice that came from you and me
那小丑盜走了他的荊棘王冠
法庭休庭了
Oh and while the King was looking down
沒有判決返還
The jester stole his thorny crown
當列儂讀馬克思時
The courtroom was adjourned
四重奏在公園上演
No verdict was returned
我們於黑暗之中唱起輓歌
And while Lennon read a book of Marx
在音樂死去的那天
The quartet practiced in the park
我們唱著
And we sang dirges in the dark
再見吧美國派小姐
The day the music died
開著我的雪弗蘭前往堤岸
然而堤岸早已乾涸
We were singing
那些老男孩喝著黑麥威士忌
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
唱著：有朝一日我將逝去
Drove my chevy to the levee
有朝一日我將逝去
But the levee was dry
殺人王曼森在炎炎夏日出沒
And them good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
飛鳥樂隊飛過沉降物掩蔽所
Singin thisll be the day that I die
從八英里高的地方急速墜下
Thisll be the day that I die
最終落在草地上
球員們試著傳球前進
Helter Skelter in a summer swelter
場邊坐著那個小丑
The Byrds flew off with a fallout shelter
中場休息時的空氣又香又甜
Eight miles high and falling fast
此時中士吹響了進行曲
It landed foul out on the grass
我們都起身跳舞
The players tried for a forward pass
哦，但我們再無機會了
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
因為球員即將上場
Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
軍樂隊拒絕讓步
While the Sergeants played a marching tune
你是否會想起什麼？
We all got up to dance
那一天音樂已死去
Oh but we never got the chance
我們開始唱著
Cause the players tried to take the field
再見吧美國派小姐
The marching band refused to yield
開著我的雪弗蘭前往堤岸
Do you recall what was revealed
然而堤岸早已乾涸
The day the music died
那些老男孩喝著黑麥威士忌
We started singing
唱著：有朝一日我將逝去
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
有朝一日我將逝去
Drove my chevy to the levee
哦，我們曾聚在一處
But the levee was dry
在太空中迷失的一代
And them good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
已沒有時間重來
Singin thisll be the day that I die
所以加油啊傑克快點兒再快點兒
Thisll be the day that I die
傑克弗萊士坐在燭台上
因為火焰是魔鬼唯一的朋友
Oh and there we were all in one place
哦，當我看到他在舞台上
A generation Lost in Space
我雙手憤怒地握緊拳頭
With no time left to start again
沒有天使生於地獄
So come on Jack be nimble Jack be quick
怎能打碎撒旦的詛咒
Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
火焰升到夜空中
Cause fire is the Devils only friend
照亮了整個祭祀儀式
Oh and as I watched him on the stage
我看見撒旦得意的笑
My hands were clenched in fistsof rage
那一天音樂已死去
No angel born in hell
他唱著
Could break that Satans spell
再見吧美國派小姐
And as the flames climbed high into the night
開著我的雪弗蘭前往堤岸
To light the sacrifical rite
然而堤岸早已乾涸
I saw Satan laughing with delight
那些老男孩喝著黑麥威士忌
The day the music died
唱著：有朝一日我將逝去
有朝一日我將逝去
He was singing
我遇見一個唱藍調的姑娘
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
我問她是否有好消息
Drove my chevy to the levee
而她只是笑著轉身離去
But the levee was dry
我又走到那家唱片店
And them good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
多年前我曾在這兒聽過音樂
Singin thisll be the day that I die
但那兒的人告訴我音樂再也不會播放
Thisll be the day that I die
在街上孩子們高聲尖叫著
情侶們哭泣著而詩人們做著夢
I met a girl who sang the blues
卻都一言不發
And I asked her for some happy news
教堂的鐘都被打破
But she just smiled and turned away
而我最欣賞三個人
I went down to the sacred store
聖父聖子和聖靈
Where Id heard the music years before
他們趕上了前往海岸的最後一班列車
But the man there said the music wouldnt play
那一天音樂已死去
他們唱著
And in the streets the children screamed
再見吧美國派小姐
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
開著我的雪弗蘭前往堤岸
But not a word was spoken
然而堤岸早已乾涸
The church bells all were broken
那些老男孩喝著黑麥威士忌
And the three men I admire most
唱著有朝一日我將逝去
The Father Son and the Holy Ghost
有朝一日我將逝去
They caught the last train for the coast
他們唱著：再見吧美國派小姐
The day the music died
開著我的雪弗蘭前往堤岸
And they were singing
然而堤岸早已乾涸
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
那些老男孩喝著黑麥威士忌
Drove my chevy to the levee
唱著：有朝一日我將逝去
But the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
Singin thisll be the day that I die
Thisll be the day that I die
They were singing bye-bye Miss American Pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singin thisll be the day that I die
