My Hometown (Wo De Jia Xiang) - Neil Young (尼尔·杨)[00:00:00]
I was eight years old[00:00:04]
And running with a dime in my hand[00:00:06]
Into the busstop[00:00:12]
To pick up a paper for my old man[00:00:14]
I'd sit on his lap in that big old Buick[00:00:20]
And steer as we drove through town[00:00:24]
He'd tousle my hair[00:00:28]
And say son take a good look around[00:00:30]
This is your hometown[00:00:35]
Your hometown[00:00:40]
This is your hometown[00:00:43]
This is your hometown[00:00:47]
In '65 tension was running high [00:00:56]
At my high school[00:00:59]
There was a lot of fights[00:01:03]
Between the black and white[00:01:05]
There was nothing you could do[00:01:07]
Two cars at a light on a Saturday night [00:01:11]
In the back seat there was a gun[00:01:15]
Words were passed in a shotgun blast[00:01:20]
Troubled times had come to my hometown[00:01:23]
My hometown[00:01:31]
My hometown[00:01:35]
My hometown[00:01:39]
Now Main Street's white washed windows[00:02:03]
And vacant stores[00:02:06]
Seems like there ain't nobody[00:02:10]
Wants to come down here no more[00:02:14]
They're closing down the textile mill[00:02:18]
Across the railroad tracks[00:02:22]
Foreman says these jobs are going boys[00:02:26]
And they ain't coming back to your hometown[00:02:30]
Your hometown[00:02:38]
Your hometown[00:02:42]
Your hometown[00:02:46]
Last night me and Kate we laid in bed[00:02:54]
Talking about getting out[00:02:58]
Packing up our bags maybe heading south[00:03:02]
I'm 35 we got a boy of our own now[00:03:10]
Last night I sat him up [00:03:18]
Behind the wheel and said son[00:03:21]
Take a good look around [00:03:23]
This is your hometown[00:03:26]
