那时我大概七-八岁,
爸爸说他上高中时有美国人来学校考大家
如果哪个孩子能够背出美国二十个以上州的名字就可以去那里读书。。
记得父亲说着说着就读起了“ MA-SSA-CHU-SE-TTS”................
现在每每听到这首歌总是想起父亲。。。。。
Feel Im goin back to massachusetts,
Somethings telling me I must go home.
And the lights all went out in massachusetts
The day I left her standing on her own.
Tried to hitch a ride to san francisco,
Gotta do the things I wanna do.
And the lights all went out in massachusetts
They brought me back to see my way with you.
Talk about the life in massachusetts,
Speak about the people I have seen,
And the lights all went out in massachusetts
And massachusetts is one place I have seen.
I will remember massachusetts...
感觉中我仿佛回到了马萨诸塞州,
一些事情似在召唤我,我一定要回家。
在马萨诸塞州,所有的灯火都已熄灭,
记得我离去的那天,她独自站在那里。
曾经试着搭乘去旧金山(圣佛郎西斯科),
去那做自己想做的事。
在马萨诸塞州,所有的灯火都已熄灭,
这些灯火曾带我回来,回到你身边。
谈起我在马萨诸塞州的岁月,谈起在那里见过的人们。
在马萨诸塞州,所有的灯火都已熄灭,
马萨诸塞州,这一个我曾见过的地方呀,
我永远记得,在马萨诸塞州.
