歌词
Gather round you people and a story i will tell
我会讲个故事给聚集在儿的人听
About a brave young indian you should remember well
有关一个你们应该牢牢记住的印第安人
From the tribe of pima indians, a proud and a peaceful band
他来自一个祥和的pima印第安部落
They farmed the phoenix valley in arizona land
他们在亚利桑那州土地上耕种凤凰谷
Down their ditches for a thousand years the sparkling water rushed
喝着从一千年前开凿的沟渠中流过的水
Till their white man stole their water rights and the running water hushed
直到白人抢走了他们的饮水权，水开始不再流动
Now ira's folks were hungry and their farms wene crops of ****s
现在ira的家人都饥肠辘辘，家中的农场杂草丛生
But when war came he volunteers and forgot, the white man's greed
但是当战场来临时他没有退缩，忘却了白人对他们的所作所为
Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
大家叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
Yes, call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
是的，叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
有250人参加了硫磺岛战役
They started up iwo jima hill, 250 men
但活下来的只有27人
But only 27 lived to walk back down that hill again
当战斗结束，昔日的荣耀再现
And when the fight was over and the old glory raised
其中一位被人们高高举起的印第安人，就是Ira Hayes
One of the men who held it high was the indian ira hayes
叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
现在的Ira成为了一名英雄，人们到处为他欢呼
他被人们所环绕，人人都想与他握手
Now ira returned a hero, celebrated throughout the land
但是他只是一位来自pima部落的印第安人，没有钱也没有庄稼，更没有出人头地的机会
He was wined and speeched and honored, everybody shook his hand
当他回到家中没人关心他的所作所为，当风吹过这位印第安人
But he was just a pima indian, no money crops, no chance
他便开始跳舞
And at home nobody cared what ira had done and the wind did the indian's
叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
Dance
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
Ira开始被酒精所麻痹，监狱经常成为他的归宿
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
他们让他在那升降旗帜，就像给狗一块骨头一样容易
一天早上他死于醉酒，独自一人在他曾经拯救过的土地上
And ira started drinking hard, jail was often his home
Ira Hayes的坟墓在沟渠中只有两英尺深
They let him raise the flag there and lower it like you'd throw a dog a bone
叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
He died drunk early one morning, alone in the land he'd fought to save
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
Two inches of water in a lonely ditch was the grave for ira hayes
是的，叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
是的，叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
Yes, call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
他的灵魂躺在只有两英尺深的坟墓中
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
Yes, call him, drunken ira hayes, but his land is still as dry
是的，叫他酒鬼Ira Hayes，但他已经醉的不省人事
And his ghost is lying thirsty in the ditch where ira died
不是喝着威士忌的印第安人或是参加战斗的海军
Call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war
Yes, call him, drunken ira hayes, he won't answer anymore
Not the whiskey-drinking indian or the marine who went to war.
