And an 'ND' look at me what's that say

Then the weatherman stood

With his head hung in shame

He took off his big belt put it down turned away

And he knew it was his

Heart that made my friend great

Not his muscles his money

His job or his name or his fame

See my friend isn't famous

He is just a good person who grows what he eats

And if you have a mouth then he will try to feed you
若你饥饿 他必尽力喂养
And if you are cold he'll put wood in the stove
若你寒冷 他会添柴生火
Grab a quilt and some warm flannel sheets
为你准备棉被和温暖的绒毯
So the Grand Champion called up Sam Champion

See I don't do what I do for the glory

I do because it's a good story"

And a hunger created by corporate greed

See there's a surplus of food in this country

And nobody should ever go to sleep hungry
但没人该饿着肚子入睡
But that food is kept under lock and key
可那些粮食却被紧锁
Considered a privilege for people with money"
成了有钱人的特权
Then the weatherman dropped
这时气象员放下了...
To his hands and his knees
他屈膝跪地
With the tear in his eye and unable to speak
眼中噙泪 哽咽难言
He was driven to action by only compassion

He dug in the dirt and he planted some beans
他躬身掘土 种下豆苗
Planted some beans planted some beans
种下希望 播撒生机
Planted some beans planted some beans
种下希望 播撒生机
Grandma said to me
祖母曾对我说
"If you only have one bean
"若你仅剩一粒豆
And you meet someone with no bean
遇见饥肠辘辘的人
You should give them half your bean
请分他半粒温存
'Cause you will be less hungry
因半粒豆的饱腹
If you eat just half a bean
胜过独自吞咽时
Than if you eat a whole bean in
面对那双空碗的
Front of somebody with no bean"
灼灼目光的拷问"
