Driving West out on I'm 40
驱车西行在40号州际公路上
On my way to taste some California wine
前往加州品尝美酒的旅程中
Broke down family flagged me down
一个陷入困境的家庭挥手拦下了我
Near the Arizona line
就在亚利桑那州界附近
Their whole world was in a pickup
他们的全部家当都在那辆皮卡里
I guess it couldn't pull the load
我猜它已经不堪重负
It was just our vacation
这不过是我们的一次度假
But to them it was desperation road
但对他们来说，却是绝望之路
The lines on their faces
他们脸上的皱纹
Told the story of the places that they'd been
诉说着他们曾经到过的地方
Now their home is a highway
如今他们的家就是一条高速公路
That never seems to end
似乎永远没有尽头
Empty dreams and empty pockets
空空的梦想和空空的口袋
Sure can make a heavy load
确实会成为沉重的负担
To some of us it's just a highway
对我们有些人来说，这只是一条高速公路
But to others it's desperation road
但对其他人来说，这是一条绝望之路
Their eyes had a sadness
他们的眼中带着忧伤
From another place in time
仿佛来自另一个时空
A silent reminder that the grapes of wrath
沉默的提醒着愤怒的葡萄
Still make bitter wine
依然酿成苦涩的酒
And it sure makes you wonder
这不禁让人深思
'Bout all the seeds our country sows
关于我们国家播下的种子
Which of us will be the next
我们中谁会成为下一个
To travel down desperation road
踏上绝望之路的人
I helped them start their pickup
我帮助他们启动了他们的皮卡
And watched them as they faded out of sight
目送他们消失在视线之外
Guess the last thing I remember
我想我最后记得的
Is the faces of the children in my lights
是我车灯下孩子们的面孔
That night in a motel room
那天晚上在汽车旅馆的房间里
I have a dream that made my blood run cold
我做了一个让我血液凝固的梦
I saw my own wife and family
我看到了自己的妻子和家人
Standing out on desperation road
站在绝望之路上
And their eyes had a sadness
他们的眼中流露出深深的悲伤
From another place in time
仿佛来自另一个时空
A silent reminder that the grapes of wrath
沉默的提醒着愤怒的葡萄
Still make bitter wine
依然酿成苦涩的酒
And it sure makes you wonder
这不禁让人深思
'Bout all the seeds our country sows
关于我们国家播下的种子
Which of us will be the next
我们中谁会成为下一个
To travel down desperation road
踏上绝望之路的人
Could be your own wife and family
或许那是你的妻子和家人
Standing out on desperation road
站在绝望之路上
