As the snow flies 作为雪中飞

On a cold and grey Chicago morn 在一个寒冷的灰色芝加哥的早晨

A poor little baby child is born in the ghetto 一个可怜的小宝贝儿出生在贫民窟

   

And his mama cries 和他妈妈的哭声

Cause there's one thing that she don't need 因为有一件事，她不需要

Is another little hungry mouth to feed in the ghetto 另一种是有点饿嘴在贫民窟喂

   

Oh people don't you understand 哦，人你难道不明白

This child needs a helping hand 这孩子需要援手

He's gonna grow to be an angry young man some day 他会成长为一个愤怒的年轻人有一天

Take a look at you and me 看看你和我

Are we that blind to see? 难道我们是盲目看？

Do we simply turn our heads and look the other way? 难道我们只是把我们的头，看看其他的办法吗？

   

And the world turns 与世界变成

And the hungry little boy with the runny nose 和饥饿的小男孩，流鼻涕

Plays in the streets as the cold wind blows in the ghetto 在街头扮演的冷风吹在贫民窟

And his hunger burns 和他的饥饿烧伤

So he starts to roam the streets at night 于是，他开始在街上游荡，晚上

And he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight in the ghetto 他学会了偷窃，他学会了如何在贫民窟打

   

Then one night in desperation 在绝望中，然后一个晚上

The young man breaks away 年轻人打破了

He buys a gun and steals a car 他买了枪，并偷了一辆车

He tries to run but he don't get far 他尝试运行，但他没有得到远

And his mama cries 和他妈妈的哭声

A crowd gathers round an angry young man 一群人围着一个愤怒的年轻人

Face down in the street with a gun in his hand in the ghetto 在街上面朝下，手里拿着枪在贫民窟

   

Oh people don't you understand 哦，人你难道不明白

He's gonna grow to be an angry young man some day 他会成长为一个愤怒的年轻人有一天

Take a look at you and me 看看你和我
