Eight-Hour Day
Pete Seeger
Eight-Hour Day 歌詞
We're brave and gallant miner boys, who work in underground
我們是勤勞勇敢的礦工,地下的工作者
For courage and good nature, no finer can be found
沒有什麼人像我們這樣善良和勇敢
We work both late and early, and get but little pay
我們起早貪黑的工作,得到很少的薪水
To support our wives and children, in free Americay
以養活家人,在自由的美利堅
If Satan took the blacklegs, I'm sure t'would bid no sin
如果工賊(出賣工人利益的人)被魔鬼抓走,魔鬼不會判他有罪
What peace and happiness t'would be, for us poor workin' men
但像我們這種可憐的勞工,又能奢望什麼快樂和安寧
Eight hours we'd have for workin', eight hours we 'd have for play
不過是8小時工作,8小時放鬆
Eight hours we'd have for sleeping, in free Americay
8小時睡覺,在自由的美利堅
