Old Man Tell Me - David Allan Coe[00:00:00]

//[00:00:13]

I've seen the old man sitting 'round[00:00:13]

我看到一个老人坐在附近[00:00:18]

The courthouse square back home in town[00:00:18]

城镇的法院广场在他家后面[00:00:22]

Talkin' about the big war back in 1943[00:00:22]

他谈论着1943年的大战[00:00:32]

Saying how much good it's done[00:00:32]

说这场战争打得多好[00:00:36]

Medals gleaming in the sun[00:00:36]

他的勋章在太阳的照射下闪闪发光[00:00:40]

Cussing at my long hair[00:00:40]

他批评我的头发太长[00:00:43]

And my talk of being free[00:00:43]

和我自由地谈论[00:00:48]

Their vision like their battle scars[00:00:48]

他们的反应就像战争给他们留下的伤疤[00:00:53]

Of other wars has faded[00:00:53]

那些疤痕已经变淡[00:00:56]

Like the colors on the ribbons[00:00:56]

像丝带上的颜色[00:01:00]

From the battles that they've won[00:01:00]

他们赢了那场战争[00:01:04]

If there's one thing I've learned it's this[00:01:04]

我学到了一点 那就是[00:01:08]

You just can't shake hands with a fist[00:01:08]

你无法用紧握的拳头握手[00:01:12]

And I once did my talkin' with a gun[00:01:12]

我曾用武力解决了我的谈话[00:01:19]

And old man I know what you've seen[00:01:19]

老家伙 我知道你看到发生了什么[00:01:23]

But yours is not the only dream[00:01:23]

但是你的梦想不是唯一的梦想[00:01:27]

I have to believe in something[00:01:27]

我必须坚信一些事[00:01:31]

More than yesterday[00:01:31]

比昨天更有信念[00:01:36]

Let it die just like the past[00:01:36]

让这一切都像往事一样过去吧[00:01:40]

I believe there's hope at last[00:01:40]

我相信终有希望[00:01:44]

Old man did you ever have to pray [00:01:44]

老人 你曾经也不得不祈祷吗[00:01:51]

Old man can you show me the way [00:01:51]

你能告诉我怎样祈祷吗[00:02:03]

Shakes his head from time to time[00:02:03]

他不停地摇着他的头[00:02:07]

And rambles somewhere in his mind[00:02:07]

他陷入了沉思[00:02:11]

Mumbling 'bout the civil war[00:02:11]

对南北战争喃喃自语[00:02:14]

And how we should have won[00:02:14]

怎么做我们才能赢[00:02:20]

Setting up his battle plans[00:02:20]

制定好他的作战计划[00:02:23]

On checker boards at his command[00:02:23]

一切都听他指挥准备就绪[00:02:28]

Watching all his gallant kings[00:02:28]

观看着所有英勇的王者们[00:02:31]

Go fallin' one by one[00:02:31]

一个一个地向前冲[00:02:38]

And son he'd say "There's not much time[00:02:38]

他说 孩子们 时间不多了[00:02:42]

For you to straighten out your mind[00:02:42]

你们要快点想好[00:02:46]

But you never listen to the things I try to say"[00:02:46]

但是你们从不听我的话[00:02:55]

And I just turn my head and cry[00:02:55]

我只能转过头偷偷地哭泣[00:02:59]

Never understanding why[00:02:59]

我从来都不理解为什么[00:03:03]

He'd set up that checker board[00:03:03]

他已经准备就绪[00:03:07]

When he knew I couldn't play[00:03:07]

当他知道我不能参与的时候[00:03:12]
