歌词
My little sister's in the front seat with an ice cream cone
我妹妹坐在前座,手里拿着冰淇淋蛋筒
My ma's in the backseat sittin' all alone
我妈一个人坐在后座
As my pa steers her slow out of the lot for a test drive down Michigan Avenue
我爸爸慢慢地开着车驶出停车场,沿着密歇根大道试驾
Now my ma she fingers her wedding band
现在我妈用手指拨弄着她的结婚戒指
And watches the salesman stare at my old man's hands
看着那个销售员盯着我老爸的手
He's tellin' us all 'bout the break he'd give us if he could but he just can't
他告诉我们,如果可能的话,他会给我们机会,但他就是做不到
Well if I could I swear I know just what I'd do
如果可以的话,我发誓我知道该怎么做
Now mister the day the lottery I win I ain't ever gonna ride in no used car again
先生,等我中了彩票我就再也不坐二手车了
Now the neighbors come from near and far
邻居们从四面八方赶来
As we pull up in our brand new used car
当我们开着崭新的二手车停下时
I wish he'd just hit the gas and let out a cry and tell 'em all they can kiss our asses goodbye
我真希望他能踩下油门,大哭一场,然后告诉所有的人,让他们滚蛋
My dad he sweats the same job from morning to mornning
我爸爸每天早上都干着同样的工作
Me I walk home on the same dirty streets where I was born
而我,我走在我出生的那条肮脏的街道上回家
Up the block I can hear my little sister in the front seat blowin' that horn
我可以听到我的小妹妹在前面的座位吹喇叭
The sounds echo'in all down Michigan Avenue
这声音回荡在整个密歇根大街
Now mister the day my number comes in I ain't ever gonna ride in no used car again
先生,等我的幸运号码到手的那天,我再也不坐二手车了
