歌词
I'm Jeremiah Dixon
I am a Geordie boy
我是Jeremiah Dixon
我是个煤船工人
A glass of wine with you' sir
和先生您喝一杯
And the ladies I'll enjoy
还有您，可爱的小姐
Durham和Northumberland的每一寸土地
All Durham and Northumberland
由我双手丈量而来
我生来的宿命
Is measured up by my own hand
就是把我的记号刻到地球上
他叫我Charlie Mason
It was my fate from birth
一个观星者
似乎我生来
To make my mark upon the earth...
就是为了绘制夜晚的星图
他们觉得我会去烤面包
He calls me Charlie Mason
但我有其他梦想
这个西方国家来的面包师的儿子
A stargazer am I
将会加入皇家学会
我们驶向费城
It seems that I was born
一个远离coaly Tyne的世界
To chart the evening sky
驶向费城
去划那条线
They'd cut me out for baking bread
那条Mason-Dixon线
是，你是个好的测量师
But I had other dreams instead
但我对天发誓，你快要把我逼疯了
老家的人们会把我们都杀掉
This baker's boy from the west country
你这个容易上当的运煤小伙儿
你说到自由
Would join the Royal Society...
美国怎么会有自由？
一个运煤工和一个面包师的儿子
We are sailing to Philadelphia
在Iroquois部落的森林中。。。
抬起你的头来，Mason
A world away from the coaly Tyne
看，美国就在那儿
早潮升起了
Sailing to Philadelphia
Delaware海角
上来晒晒太阳吧
To draw the line
一个新的早晨开始了
有一天我们会明白
The Mason-Dixon line
为什么你的星星把我们引导到这里
我们驶向费城
Now you're a good surveyor' Dixon
一个远离coaly Tyne的世界
But I swear you'll make me mad
驶向费城
去划那条线
The West will kill us both
那条Mason-Dixon线
You gullible Geordie lad
You talk of liberty
How can America be free
A Geordie and a baker's boy
In the forest of the Iroquois...
Now hold your head up' Mason
See America lies there
The morning tide has raised
The capes of Delaware
Come up and feel the sun
A new morning is begun
Another day will make it clear
Why your stars should guide us here...
We are sailing to Philadelphia
A world away from the coaly Tyne
Sailing to Philadelphia
To draw the line
The Mason-Dixon line
