Elizabeth 伊丽莎白

That thundercloud is creeping up the Empire Hill 这雷云是攀升帝国山

There's shadows on the overpass 有阴影的立交桥

And puddles in the old dirt path 而在旧土路积水

   

Peoria 皮奥里亚

Lay silent still in the belly of the overgrown 默默地躺在那里仍然是杂草丛生的肚子

All quiet on the open plain 在开阔的平原都安静

Footprints to the family plot 脚印积家

   

Where evermore will restless sorrow sleep 凡永会坐立不安的悲哀睡眠

In a broken heap 在一个破碎的堆

   

Cemetery Guns go bang bang bang 公墓枪去砰砰砰

Shooting all the sky full of holes 所有拍摄天空千疮百孔

Twenty-one times in row 在连续二十​​一倍

For the blue war widow in the gray raincoat 在灰色的雨衣蓝色战寡妇

On the green grass down below 在绿色的草地上向下跌破

   

Elizabeth 伊丽莎白

Our fathers came and settled where the ground was flat 我们的祖先就定居在那里的地面是平的

Drew water from the Indian wells 从印第安维尔斯打水

Cut timber from the rolling fells 从滚动丘陵砍伐

   

Grandaddy-o Grandaddy -O

Bled hearth and home for oiling the company gears 布莱德的炉火与家庭的注油公司齿轮

No rest for the errant ones 没有休息的那些大侠

Godspeed their reckless sons 一帆风顺的鲁莽的儿子

   

Who evermore play their forefathers' hands 永中谁发挥他们的祖先的手

On the foreign sands 在国外沙滩

   

Cemetery Guns go bang bang bang 公墓枪去砰砰砰

Shooting all the sky full of holes 所有拍摄天空千疮百孔

Twenty-one times in row 在连续二十​​一倍

For the blue war widow in the gray raincoat 在灰色的雨衣蓝色战寡妇

On the green grass down below 在绿色的草地上向下跌破
