rock n roll (IGA VE youth E best years of my life)
Mac Davis
rock n roll (IGA VE youth E best years of my life) 歌詞
Oh, I can still remember
哦我仍然能想起
When I bought my first guitar
當我買我的第一把吉他時
Remember walking from the shop
我從商店走出來
To put it proudly in my car
得意地將它放進我的車裡
And my family listened fifty times
我的家人聽過了無數次
To my two song repertoire
我全部的兩首歌曲
我告訴媽媽她唯一的兒子
I told my mom her only son
將會成為一位明星
Was gonna be a star
我買了披頭士所有的唱片
Well, I bought all the Beatles records
聽起來就像保羅在我身邊
Sounded just like Paul
我買了查克·貝里所有的老唱片
I bought all the old Chuck Berrys
包括78年的和其他所有
78s and all
我坐在我的電唱機旁
彈奏他們所演奏過的每一個音符
And I sat by my record player
我在電視上看他們所有的節目
Playing every note they played
並且模仿他們做的每一個動作
I watched them all on TV
哦,搖滾,我把我生命中所有
And copied every move they made
最好的年華都獻給了你
Aw, rock and roll, I gave you all
所有夢幻的、陽光明媚的星期天
The best years of my life
所有月色皎潔的夏夜
All the dreamy sunny Sundays
我是多麼忙碌地在後屋
All the moonlit summer nights
為你譜寫愛的歌曲
I was so busy in the backroom
當你一直在改變著你的發展趨勢時
Writing love songs to you
而你甚至永遠不會知道
While you were changing your direction
我總是與你僅有一步之遙
And you never even knew
好像在1966那一年
That I was always just one step behind you
我真的去了某個地方
Well, '66 seemed like the year
我生活在聖弗朗西斯科
I was really going somewhere
頭上插著鮮花
I was living in San Francisco
唱著友好的歌
Wearing flowers in my hair
於是這個世界會理解
Singing songs of kindness
我和我的伙伴們
So the world would understand
不僅僅是另一支樂隊
The guys and me thought we were more
哦,搖滾,我把我生命中所有
Than just another band
最好的年華都獻給了你
Aw, rock and roll, I gave you all
所有瘋狂的、懶散的、青春的日子
The best years of my life
所有夜空中魔幻的月亮
All the crazy, lazy, young days
我是那麼忙碌地在路上
All the magic moon at nights
為你唱著愛的歌曲
I was so busy on the road
當你一直在改變著你的發展趨勢時
Singing love songs to you
而你甚至永遠不會知道
While you were changing your direction
我總是與你僅有一步之遙
1971那一年我十分孤獨
And you never even knew
那時我遇到了莎拉·簡
That I was always just one step behind you
我正在努力嘗試
Well, '71, I was all alone
去另一支樂隊獨奏
When I met Sarah Jan
她輕柔地向我走來
I was trying to go it solo
牽我的手帶著我走
With someone elses band
她傾聽著我的問題
And she came up to me softly
並且她似乎有所理解
And she took me by the hand
後來她跟著我去了倫敦
She listened to my problems
我們輾轉了成百上千的旅館
And she seemed to understand
走過了許多唱片公司
And she followed me to London
他們都不喜歡我的樂音
To a hundred hotel rooms
她跟著我回到了田納西
Through a hundred record companies
在這裡她最終使我明白
Who didn' t like my tunes
我只是一個樸實無華的鄉村老男孩
She followed me back to Tennessee
我也永遠只能是這樣
Where she finally made me see
哦,搖滾,我把我生命中所有
I'm just a plain old country boy
最好的年華都獻給了你
That's all I'll ever be
所有夢幻的、陽光明媚的星期天
Aw, rock and roll, I gave you
所有月色皎潔的夏夜
All the best years of my life
儘管我永遠不會知道
All the dreamy, sunny Sundays
和你一起創造音樂的魔力
All the moonlit summer nights
我正在和我的鄉村音樂和睦相處
And though I never knew
做著我天生就該做的事
The magic of making it with you
但我總是和你僅有一步之遙
I'm getting along with my country songs
哦,搖滾,我把我生命中所有
Doing what I was born to do
最好的年華都獻給了你
But I always was just one step behind you
所有夢幻的、陽光明媚的星期天
Aw, rock and roll, I gave you
所有月色皎潔的夏夜
All the best years of my life
All the dreamy sunny Sundays,
all the moon-lit summer nights,
