Trouble In The Fields (Album Version) - Nanci Griffith

Baby I know that we've got trouble in the fields
宝贝我知道 我们一直处于麻烦之中
When the bankers swarm like locust out there
当银行家如同蝗虫般袭卷而来
Turning away our yield
他们拿走我们的劳动成果
The trains roll by our silos
我们的梦想在滚筒中旋转
Silver in the rain
即使在雨中也闪着银光
They leave our pockets full of nothing
这样一来 我们口袋空空
But our dreams and the golden grain
我们的梦想存在于黄金谷物之中
Have you seen the folks
你可曾见到那些
In line downtown at the station
在市区的车站旁排队等候的人们
They're all buying their ticket out
他们都是为了买票
And talking the great depression
但是他们都收获了很大的失望
Our parents had their hard times fifty years ago
五十年前 我们的父辈曾经受苦难
When they stood out in these empty fields
当他们屹立在这些荒芜的大地上
In dust as deep as snow
在那些尘土如雪花般厚重的大地上
And all this trouble in our fields
我们一直处于麻烦之中
If this rain can fall
如果可以下雨
These wounds can heal
如果伤口可以愈合
They'll never take our native soil
他们永远不会带走我们的土地
But if we sell that new John Deere
如果我们出售新的约翰迪尔
And then we'll work these crops
我们将在汗水与泪水中
With sweat and tears
运作这片农场
You'll be the mule I'll be the plow
如果你是骡子 我将是犁
Come harvest time we'll work it out
当收获的季节来临 那将妙不可言
There's still a lot of love
我们这个世界依然有爱
Here in these troubled fields
我们一直处于麻烦之中
There's a book up on the shelf
有一本书放在书架上
About the dust bowl days
讲的是有关沙尘侵袭的天气
And there's a little bit of you
有关你
And a little bit of me
与我的照片
In the photos on every page
总会在每张书页中所占据
Now our children live in the city
如今我们的孩子生存在这个城市
And they rest upon our shoulders
他们依靠在我们的肩膀上
They never want the rain to fall
他们不想要下雨
Or the weather to get colder
也不想要寒冷的天气
And all this trouble in our fields
我们一直处于麻烦之中
If this rain can fall
如果可以下雨
These wounds can heal
如果伤口可以愈合
They'll never take our native soil
他们永远不会带走我们的黄土
But if we sell that new John Deere
如果我们出售新的约翰迪尔
And then we'll work these crops
我们将在汗水与泪水中
With sweat and tears
运作这片农场
You'll be the mule I'll be the plow
如果你是骡子 我将是犁
Come harvest time we'll work it out
当收获的季节来临 那将妙不可言
There's still a lot of love
我们这个世界依然有爱
Here in these troubled fields
我们一直处于麻烦之中
You'll be the mule I'll be the plow
如果你是骡子 我将是犁
Come harvest time we'll work it out
当收获的季节来临 那将妙不可言
There's still a lot of love
我们这个世界依然有爱
Here in these troubled fields
我们一直处于麻烦之中
