Family reunion, 4th of July
七月四日的家庭团聚
It's been three years since I've seen it
我已经三年没看到了
Now I remember why
现在我想起来了
Aunt Charlotte's at the door
夏洛特阿姨来了
Big smile on her face
她脸上挂着灿烂的笑容
The first thing she says to me:
她对我说的第一句话是:
"Looks like you've gained some weight"
"看起来你长胖了"
You only get that kind of honesty
这样的诚实
From family
只有从家人那里得到
乔叔叔喝醉了
Uncle Joe's getting plastered
玛瑞丝姑妈要生气了
Aunt Marthe's getting mad
我的堂兄道格
Same old cousin Doug
还是讲述着他的老笑话
Same old jokes, same old bad
妈妈一直提醒我
Mama has to keep reminding me
儿子,他们是一家人
Son, they're family
一些新的婴儿,同样的老疯子
我从小就认识他们
A few new babies, the same old crazies
但他们仍然让我吃惊
I've known 'em my whole life
我从没有选择他们
And they still amaze me
但我不想失去他们
I didn't choose 'em
因为你必须爱他们
But I'd hate to lose 'em
他们是你的家人
Cause you gotta love 'em
表姐琳达出现了
They're family
带着她的新欢
我忍不住笑了,爸爸小声说
Cousin Linda showed up
这可能是咒语时
With her new sweetheart
还有个兄弟莱斯特
I had to laugh when daddy whispered
在城里,刚飞来
Fifth time might be the charm
从很远的地方
And there's a brother Lester
我们对他还不太确定
In the city, just flew in
虽然我们不同
All the way from way out (?)
但能和家人在一起真好
We're still not sure about him
一些新的婴儿,同样的老疯子
But different as we are it's good to be
我从小就认识他们
In family
但他们仍然让我吃惊
我从没有选择他们
A few new babies, the same old crazies
但我不想失去他们
I've known 'em my whole life
因为你必须爱他们
And they still amaze me
他们是你的家人
I didn't choose 'em
妈妈说了祝福的话
Wouldn't wanna lose 'em
她强忍住泪水
Cause you gotta love 'em
因为上次我们在一起的时候
Man, they're family
爷爷在这里
她知道他会感到自豪
When mama said the blessings
他会多么想见到她
She was fightin' back the tears
一些新的婴儿,同样的老疯子
Cause the last time we were all together
我从小就认识他们
Grandpa was here
但他们仍然让我吃惊
She knew how proud he'd be
我从没有选择他们
And how much he'd love to see
但我不想失去他们
一定要爱他们
A few new babies, the same old crazies
因为他们是一家人
I've known 'em my whole life
七月四日的家庭团聚
And they still amaze me
我已经三年没看到了
Don't get to choose 'em
现在我想起来了
But you hate to lose 'em
You gotta love 'em
Cause they're family
Family reunion, 4th of July
It's been three years since I've seen it
Now I remember why
