Hard Times in New York Town (纽约城的艰难岁月) - Bob Dylan (鲍勃·迪伦)[00:00:00]
Written by:Dylan Bob[00:00:09]
Come you ladies and you gentlemen a listen to my song[00:00:19]
Sing it to you right but you might think it's wrong[00:00:22]
Just a little glimpse of a story I'll tell[00:00:24]
'Bout an east coast city that you all know well[00:00:26]
It's hard times in the country[00:00:29]
Livin' down in New York town[00:00:31]
Old New York city is a friendly old town[00:00:36]
From Washington Heights to Harlem on down[00:00:39]
There's a mighty many people all millin' all around[00:00:41]
They'll kick you when you're up and knock you when you're down[00:00:43]
It's hard times in the country[00:00:46]
Livin' down in New York town[00:00:48]
Well the weekend is strong and the rich and the poor[00:00:54]
Get there together in roof an' no more[00:00:57]
Crowdin' up 'bove and crowdin' down below[00:00:59]
And someone disappears you never even know[00:01:01]
And it's hard times from the country[00:01:03]
Livin' down in New York town[00:01:05]
It's a mighty long ways from the Golden Gate[00:01:09]
To Rockefeller Plaza 'n' the Empire State[00:01:11]
Mister Empire sets up as high as a bird[00:01:13]
Old Mister Rockefeller never says a word[00:01:16]
It's hard times from the country[00:01:18]
Living down in New York town[00:01:20]
Well it's up in the morning' trying' to find a job of work[00:01:24]
Stand in one place till your feet begin to hurt[00:01:26]
If you got a lot o' money you can make yourself merry[00:01:28]
If you only got a nickel it's the Staten Island Ferry[00:01:31]
And it's hard times in the country[00:01:33]
Living down in New York town[00:01:35]
I'll take all the smog in Californeay[00:01:38]
'N' every bit of dust in the Oklahoma plains[00:01:41]
'N' the dirt in the caves of the Rocky Mountain mines[00:01:43]
It's all much cleaner than the New York kind[00:01:45]
And it's hard times in the country[00:01:47]
Living down in New York town[00:01:49]
Mister Hudson come a sailing down the stream[00:01:52]
And old Mister Minuet paid for his dream[00:01:55]
Bought your city on a one way track[00:01:57]
'F I had my way I'd sell it right back[00:01:59]
And it's hard times in the country[00:02:01]
Living down in New York town[00:02:03]
So all you newsy people spread the news around[00:02:07]
You can listen to m' story listen to m' song[00:02:09]
You can step on my name you can try 'n' get me beat[00:02:11]
When I leave New York I'll be standing on my feet[00:02:14]
And it's hard times in the country[00:02:16]
Living down in New York town[00:02:18]
