- James Last Washington Square 歌詞
- James Last
- From Cape Cod Light to the Mississip, to San Francisco Bay,
從科德角燈塔到密西西比，到舊金山海灣
Theyre talkin bout this famous place, down Greenwich Village way.
他們談論著格林威治村（也叫西區，紐約藝術聖地）沿路的風景名勝
An so I got my banjo out, jes sittin, catchin dust,
所以我拿出我的班卓琴，坐在那兒，滿身風塵
An painted right across the case: 'Greenwich Village or Bust!'
在箱子上塗鴉“去格林威治區或者化為塵埃”
My folks were sad to see me go, but I got no meanin there.
我們夥伴們為我的離去傷感，但我在這兒毫無意義
So I said, 'Goodbye, Kansas, Mo. And hello, Washington Square!'
所以我說，“再見，堪薩斯城。你好，華盛頓廣場（紐約西區藝術家集中地）！”
Near Tennessee, I met a guy who played 12-string guitar.
在田納西附近，我遇見一個人彈十二弦琴的人
He also had a mighty voice, not to mention a car.
他還有一副雄渾的嗓子，更別說他還有輛車了
Each time he hit those bluegrass chords, you sure smelled mountain air,
每次他彈起那些藍草音樂（鄉村音樂一個分支）的和弦，你彷彿呼吸到了山間清新的空氣
I said, 'Dont waste it on the wind. Cmon to Washington Square.'
我說，“別浪費天賦了，來吧，我們去華盛頓廣場。”
She sang for all humanity, this gal with raven hair.
有著烏黑頭髮的女孩，她為全人類而唱
I said, 'Its for the world to hear, Cmon to Washington Square.'
我說，“應該讓讓全世界聽見，來吧，我們去華盛頓廣場。 ”
We cannonballed into New York on good old US 1,
沿著國道一號，我們像砲彈一樣直奔紐約
Till up ahead we saw the arch, a-gleamin bright in the sun.
直到我們看見了拱門（華盛頓廣場拱門），在陽光下閃閃發光
Say hows about a freedom song, or the ole 'Rock Island Line'!
談論著一首關於自由的歌，或者那首最棒的“石島航線（上世紀美國著名鄉村音樂）”
Or hows about the dust-bowl crop, or men who work in a mine?
或者沙塵暴裡的農田，或者礦井裡的工人
