Allentown (Live At Santander Arena, Reading, PA / May 18, 2017) - Eric Church (艾瑞克·乔治)[00:00:00]
Written by:Billy Joel[00:00:03]
Well we're living here in Allentown[00:00:14]
And they're closing all the factories down[00:00:18]
Out in Bethlehem they're killing time[00:00:22]
Filling out forms[00:00:26]
Standing in line[00:00:28]
Well our fathers fought the Second World War[00:00:31]
Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore[00:00:35]
Met our mothers at the USO[00:00:39]
Asked them to dance[00:00:43]
Danced with them slow[00:00:45]
And we're living here in Allentown[00:00:48]
But the restlessness was handed down[00:00:52]
And it's getting very hard to stay[00:00:56]
Well we're waiting here in Allentown[00:01:11]
For the Pennsylvania we never found[00:01:15]
For the promises our teachers gave[00:01:19]
If we worked hard[00:01:23]
If we behaved[00:01:25]
So the graduations hang on the wall[00:01:27]
But they never really helped us at all[00:01:32]
No they never taught us what was real[00:01:36]
Iron and coke[00:01:40]
And chromium steel[00:01:42]
And we're waiting here in Allentown[00:01:44]
But they've taken all the coal from the ground[00:01:49]
And the union people crawled away[00:01:53]
Every child had a pretty good shot[00:02:08]
To get at least as far as their old man got[00:02:11]
But something happened on the way to that place[00:02:15]
They threw an American flag in our face[00:02:19]
Well I'm living here in Allentown[00:02:34]
And it's hard to keep a good man down[00:02:38]
But I won't be getting up today[00:02:42]
And it's getting very hard to stay[00:03:21]
And we're living here in Allentown[00:03:32]
And we're living here in Allentown[00:04:05]
