I was just out of the service[00:00:05]
我刚退伍[00:00:07]
Thumbing through the classifieds[00:00:07]
浏览着分类广告[00:00:10]
When an ad that said Old Chevy[00:00:10]
当一个广告上写着破旧的雪佛兰[00:00:12]
Somehow caught my eye[00:00:12]
不知怎的引起了我的注意[00:00:15]
The lady didn't know the year or even if it ran[00:00:15]
这位女士不知道是哪年甚至不知道它是否运行[00:00:20]
But I had that thousand dollars in my hand[00:00:20]
可我手里拿着一千块[00:00:25]
It was way back in the corner of this old ramshackle barn[00:00:25]
那是很久以前在一个破旧谷仓的角落里[00:00:30]
With thirty years of dust and[00:00:30]
三十年的风风雨雨[00:00:32]
Dirt on that green army tarp[00:00:32]
绿色军布上沾满尘土[00:00:35]
And when I pulled the cover off[00:00:35]
当我打开盖子[00:00:38]
It took away my breath[00:00:38]
让我无法呼吸[00:00:41]
What she called a Chevy was a sixty-six Corvette[00:00:41]
她所谓的雪佛兰其实是66年产的雪佛兰科尔维特[00:00:47]
And I felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills[00:00:47]
数着账单我感觉有点罪恶[00:00:52]
But what a thrill I got when[00:00:52]
但当我发现[00:00:54]
I sat behind the wheel[00:00:54]
我坐在方向盘后面[00:00:58]
I opened up the glove box[00:00:58]
我打开杂物箱[00:01:00]
And that's when I found the note[00:01:00]
就在那时我发现了一张纸条[00:01:03]
The date was 1966[00:01:03]
[00:01:06]
And this is what he wrote[00:01:06]
这就是他写的[00:01:09]
He said My name is Private Andrew Malone[00:01:09]
他说我是二等兵安德鲁·马龙[00:01:14]
And if you're reading this[00:01:14]
如果你在读这封信[00:01:17]
Then I didn't make it home[00:01:17]
我没有回家[00:01:21]
But for every dream that's shattered[00:01:21]

Of mine now it belongs to you[00:01:28]

And make her your own[00:01:34]

You'll always be riding with Private Malone[00:01:38]

And I put the rag top down[00:02:00]
我放下车篷[00:02:03]
All the pretty girls would stop[00:02:03]
所有漂亮女孩都会停下脚步[00:02:05]
And stare as I drove her through town[00:02:05]
凝望着我载着她穿过小镇[00:02:10]
The buttons on the radio[00:02:10]
收音机的按钮[00:02:12]
Didn't seem to work quite right[00:02:12]
