(是什么让美国出名？) (LP版) - Harry Chapin [00:00:03] Written by：Harry Chapin/Sandy Chapin [00:00:14] It was the town that made America famous [00:00:20] The churches full and the kids all gone to hell [00:00:26] Six traffic lights and seven cops and all the streets kept clean [00:00:32] The supermarket and the drug store and the bars all doing well [00:00:40] Now they were the folks that made America famous [00:00:47] The local fire department stocked with shorthaired volunteers [00:00:53] And on Saturday night while America boozes [00:00:56] The fire department showed dirty movies [00:00:59] The lawyer and the grocer seeing their dreams [00:01:02] Come to life on the movie screens [00:01:05] While the plumber hopes that he won't be seen [00:01:09] As he tries to hide his fears and he wipes away his tears [00:01:17] But something's burning somewhere [00:01:20] Does anybody care [00:01:28] We were the kids that made America famous [00:01:34] The kind of kids that long since drove our parents to dispair [00:01:40] We were lazy long hairs dropping our [00:01:44] Lost confused and copping out [00:01:47] Convinced our futures were in doubt and trying not to care [00:01:55] We lived in the house that made America famous [00:02:01] It was a rundown slum the shame [00:02:03] Of all the decent folks in town [00:02:07] We hippies and some welfare cases [00:02:10] Croweded families of coal black faces [00:02:13] Cramped inside some cracked old boards [00:02:16] The best that we all could afford [00:02:19] But still to nice for the rich landlord [00:02:22] To tear it down and we could hear the sound [00:02:29] Of something burning somewhere [00:02:32] Is anybody there [00:02:40] We all lived the life that made America famous [00:02:46] Our cops would make a point to shadow us around our town [00:02:52] And we love children put a swastika [00:02:55] On the bright red firehouse door [00:02:59] America the beautiful it makes a body proud [00:03:10] And then came the night that made America famous [00:03:16] Was it carelessness or someone's sick idea of a joke [00:03:22] In the tinder box trap that we hippies [00:03:24] Lived in someone struck a spark [00:03:28] At first I thought I was dreaming [00:03:32] Then I saw the first flames gleaming [00:03:35] And heard the sound of children screaming [00:03:38] Coming through the smoke [00:03:42] And something's burning somewhere [00:03:46] Does anybody care [00:03:53] It was the fire that made America famous [00:03:59] The sirens wailed and the firemen [00:04:01] Stumbled sleepy from their homes [00:04:05] And the plumber yelled Come on let's go [00:04:08] But they saw what was burning and said Take it slow [00:04:11] Let 'em sweat a little they'll never know [00:04:14] And besides we just cleaned the chrome [00:04:18] Said the plumber I'm going alone [00:04:25] He rolled on up in the fire truck [00:04:28] And raised the ladder to the ledge [00:04:31] Where me and my girl and a couple of kids [00:04:34] Were clinging like bats to the edge [00:04:38] We staggered to salvation [00:04:42] Collapsed on the street [00:04:44] And I never thought that a fat man's face [00:04:47] Would ever look so sweet [00:04:56] I shook his hand in the scene that made America famous [00:05:04] And a smile from the heart that made America great [00:05:11] You see we spent the rest of that night in the home of a man [00:05:15] I'd never known before [00:05:19] It's funny when you get that close it's kind of hard to hate [00:05:31] I went to sleep with the hope that made America famous [00:05:38] I had the kind of a dream that maybe [00:05:40] They're still trying to teach in school [00:05:44] Of the America that made America famous [00:05:51] And of the people who just might understand [00:05:55] That how together yes we can [00:05:58] Create a country better than [00:06:01] The one we have made of this land [00:06:05] We have a choice to make each man [00:06:08] Who dares to dream reaching out his hand [00:06:11] A prophet or just a crazy God d**n [00:06:15] Dreamer of a fool yes a crazy fool 404
