歌词
Folks, we finally got our headline
伙计们,我们如愿以偿上了头版
"Newsies Crushed as Bulls Attack"“
报童惨遭镇压,溃不成军”
Crutchie's calling me
小拐喊着我救命
Dumb crip's just too damn slow
瘸子腿脚坏跑得太慢
Guys are fightin', bleedin' falling
兄弟们英勇抵抗,却落得头破血流
Thanks to good ole' Captain Jack
多亏了英明的“杰克队长”
Captain Jack just wants to close his eyes and go“
杰克队长”现在只想闭上眼睛,逃离这里
Let me go
让我走
Far away
走得远远的
Somewhere they won't ever find me, and tomorrow won't remind me of today
去一个他们找不到我的地方,一觉醒来就能够忘记今天
And the city's finally sleeping
这座城市已经入睡
And the moon looks old and grey
今夜月色清冷泛灰
I get on a train thats bound for Santa Fe
让我跳上火车,前往圣达菲
And I'm gone
我要离开了
And I'm done
一切都结束了
No more running. No more lying
再也没有逃亡,再也没有谎言
No more fat old man denying me my pay
也没有可恶的胖老头不付我工钱
Just a moon so big and yellow, it turns night right into day
只有一轮皎洁的明月,伴我从黑夜走到白天
Dreams come true. Yeah they do. In Santa Fe
梦想一定可以成真,对,就在圣达菲
Where does it say you gotta live and die here?
谁说我这一辈子就要耗在这里?
Where does it say a guy can't catch a break?
谁说我一定要工作到死不能休息?
Why should you only take what you're given?
为什么我一定要在他们的施舍中苟活?
Why should you spend your whole life living trapped where there ain't no future?
为什么我的一生都要困在这里,没有希望,没有寄托?
Even at 17
我才十七岁啊!
Breaking your back for someone else's sake
为什么要为那些人做牛做马?
If the life don't seem to suit you, how about a change of scene?
如果生活不合你意,为什么不去别处换个风景?
Far from the lousy headlines and the deadlines in between
远离烦人的新闻,远离夹缝中求生
Santa Fe, my old friend
圣达菲,我的老朋友
I can't spend my whole life dreaming
我不能再把时间花在白日梦上
Though I know thats all I seem inclined to do
虽然我知道我经常会这样
I ain't getting any younger
我已经不再年轻
And I wanna start brand new
我只想要一个崭新的开始
I need space
全新的天地
And fresh air
清新的空气
Let 'em laugh in my face
不管别人怎么笑我
I don't care
我都不在乎
Save my place
替我留好位置
I'll be there
我就要去到那里
Just be real is all I'm asking
我别无他求,只要这个真实存在的地方
Not some painting in my head
而不是我画中的想象
Cause I'm dead if I can't count on you today
这是我如今活下去唯一的机会
I got nothing if I ain't got Santa Fe
我已一无所有,只有圣达菲
