The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down

Virgil Caine is my name and I drove on the Danville train
我叫作維吉爾·凱恩正坐在去丹維爾的火車上
Till Stonewall's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again
但'石牆'傑克遜的騎兵一到前面的鐵軌就又被拆了
In the winter of 'sixty-five, we were hungry, just barely alive
這是1865年的冬天我們瀕臨餓死
I took the train to Richmond that fell
我又上了去里士滿的火車
It was a time I remember, oh, so well
只記得那是哦頂好的一段時光
The night they drove old Dixie down
把南方佬打跑的那晚
And all the bells were ringin';
到處迴盪著鈴聲
The night they drove old Dixie down
把南方佬打跑的那晚
And all the people were singin'; they went:
到處迴盪著歌聲那歌聲唱著：
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
啦啦啦啦啦啦啦
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦
Back with my wife in Tennessee
回田納西找我的老婆
And one day she said to me
有一天她這樣對我說
Virgil, quick come see
維吉爾快來看看呀
There goes the Robert E. Lee
羅伯特·愛德華·李將軍總算走了
Now I don't mind chopping wood
讓我劈柴沒問題
And I don't care if the money's no good
營生不好也無所謂
Just take what you need and leave the rest
他們要什麼就拿什麼吧
But they should never have taken the very best
但掠奪一空絕對是不可饒恕的啊
The night they drove old Dixie down
把南方佬打跑的那晚
And all the bells were ringin';
到處迴盪著鈴聲
The night they drove old Dixie down
把南方佬打跑的那晚
And all the people were singin'; they went:
到處迴盪著歌聲那歌聲唱著：
La, la , la, la, la, la, la
啦啦啦啦啦啦啦
La, la, la, la, la, la，la, la, la
啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦
Like my father before me, I'm a working man
跟我老爹一樣我是個手藝人
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand
跟我老兄一樣我是個叛逆人
Oh, he was just 18, proud and brave
哦那時他才18歲意氣風發英勇無畏
But a yankee laid him in his grave
但被一個北佬送進了墳墓
I swear by the blood below my feet
我以祖宗之名向你保證
You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat
一旦凱恩家族的人被挫敗你再無法讓他回頭
The night they drove old Dixie down
把南方佬打跑的那晚
And all the bells were ringin';
到處迴盪著鈴聲
The night they drove old Dixie down
把南方佬打跑的那晚
And all the people were singin'; they went:
到處迴盪著歌聲那歌聲唱著：
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
啦啦啦啦啦啦啦
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦啦
