Written by：John Prine

When I was a child my family would travel
当我还是个孩子 常随家人远行
Down to western kentucky where my parents were born
前往肯塔基西部 父母的故乡
And theres a backwards old town thats often remembered
有个古老的小镇 总被反复追忆
So many times that my memries are worn
回忆太多次 已渐渐模糊
And daddy won't you take me back to muhlenberg County
爸爸能否带我回穆伦伯格县
Down by the green river where paradise lay
去绿河畔的天堂之地
Well i'm sorry my son but you're too late in asking
抱歉孩子 你的请求来得太迟
Mister peabodys coal train has hauled it away
皮博迪的运煤车已带走一切
Well sometimes wed travel right down the green river
有时我们会沿着绿河顺流而下
To the abandoned old prison down by adrie hill
来到阿德里山旁那座废弃的旧监狱
Where the air smelled like snakes and wed shoot with our pistols
空气中弥漫着蛇的气息 我们举着手枪射击
But empty pop bottles was all we would kill
却只能打碎几个空汽水瓶
And daddy won't you take me back to muhlenberg County
爸爸能否带我回穆伦伯格县
Down by the green river where paradise lay
去绿河畔的天堂之地
Well i'm sorry my son but you're too late in asking
抱歉孩子 你的请求来得太迟
Mister peabodys coal train has hauled it away
皮博迪的运煤车已带走一切
And the coal company came with the worlds largest shovel
煤矿公司带着巨型铲车闯入这片土地
And they tortured the timber and stripped all the land
他们肆意砍伐林木 将大地剥蚀殆尽
Well they dug for their coal till the land was forsaken
疯狂采掘煤炭 直到这片土地被彻底遗弃
Then they wrote it all down as the progress of man
却将这一切记录为人类的进步
And daddy won't you take me back to muhlenberg County
爸爸能否带我回穆伦伯格县
Down by the green river where paradise lay
去绿河畔的天堂之地
Well i'm sorry my son but you're too late in asking
抱歉孩子 你的请求来得太迟
Mister peabodys coal train has hauled it away
皮博迪的运煤车已带走一切
Daddy won't you take me back to muhlenberg County
爸爸 带我回到穆伦伯格郡吧
Down by the green river where paradise lay
去绿河畔的天堂之地
Well i'm sorry my son but you're too late in asking
抱歉孩子 你的请求来得太迟
Mister peabodys coal train has hauled it away
皮博迪的运煤车已带走一切
