Heaven Is A Honky Tonk

歌词
All my heroes are going to Heaven
我的英雄们都终归要去天堂
All the junkies and the liars and the fools
那些瘾君子、骗子和愚人们
All good-timin' men will leave their voices on the wind
他们的歌声却继续随风飘扬四方(此处缅怀已经去世的乡村歌手们)
It's a kindness we cannot repay to them
这是我们无法报答的恩惠
There's a choir singin' in a southern accent, a fiddle in the band
带着南方口音合唱,这些乐队总是有提琴
There's a "Hallelujah!" on the lips of every dying man
口中总是唱着“哈利路亚”
Mama, don't you cry when they're dead and gone
妈妈,当他们故去的时候,你不要哭泣
Jesus, he loves his sinners and Heaven is a honky-tonk
耶稣喜欢他的罪人们,天堂是一座乡村酒馆
I won't say their names
我不会提及他们的名字
They've been said enough in vain
因为已经徒劳地说了太多遍
Just the memory and the thousand years of smiles
充满无数欢声笑语的美好回忆
The lines around your eyes
你眼角的皱纹
Tell me you're not far behind
告诉我你并不是与世隔绝的隐士
But I can see that livin' free was worth the while
但我能看出来洒脱的乡村生活是值得的
There's a choir singin' in a southern accent, a fiddle in the band
带着南方口音合唱,这些乐队总是有提琴
There's a "Hallelujah!" on the lips of every dying man
口中总是唱着“哈利路亚”
Mama, don't you cry when they're dead and gone
妈妈,当他们故去的时候,你不要哭泣
Jesus, he loves his sinners and Heaven is a honky-tonk
耶稣喜欢他的罪人们,天堂是一座乡村酒馆
Happiness, they say, is a jukebox that always plays
幸福,他们说是台一直播放的自动唱机
And a lonesome heart ain't lonely anymore
一颗孤单的心不再寂寞
Every soul that dared passed on is now covered in neon
那些过世的灵魂现在身披霓虹彩灯
They dance with silver wings on wooden floors
张开天使的翅膀在木地板上起舞
There's a choir singin' in a southern accent, a fiddle in the band
带着南方口音合唱,这些乐队总是有提琴
There's a "Hallelujah!" on the lips of every dying man
口中总是唱着“哈利路亚”
Mama, don't you cry when they're dead and gone
妈妈,当他们故去的时候,你不要哭泣
Jesus, he loves his sinners and Heaven is a honky-tonk
