歌词
Little kid in a small town
小镇上长大的孩子
I did my best just to fit in
我用尽全力融入这个世界
Broke my heart on the playground
在操场上 他们说我跟别人不一样
When they said I was different
这伤了我的心
Oh now, now I’m all grown up and nothing has changed
现在,现在的我已长大,而什么都未曾改变
Yeah, it’s still the same
是的,一切照旧
It’s a hard life on easy street
在这片富裕的土地上 我过着艰难的生活
Just white painted picket fences far as you can see
目及之处只有白漆的尖桩篱笆
If you think we live in the land of the free
假如你认为我们生活在自由的国度
You should try to be black like me
你应该试试看过我的生活
My daddy worked day and night
我的父亲夜以继日地工作
For an old house and a used car
就为了一处老旧的房屋和一辆旧车
Just to live that good life
就为了更美好的生活
It shouldn’t be twice as hard
为什么要这样艰难
Oh now, now I’m all grown up and nothing has changed
而今,而今我已不再年少,一切都没改变
Yeah, it’s still the same
是的,一切仍然照旧
It’s a hard life on easy street
在这片富饶的土地上 我拥有艰难的生活
Just white painted picket fences far as you can see
目及之处只有白漆的尖桩篱笆
If you think we live in the land of the free
假如你认为我们生活在自由的国度
You should try to be, oh black like me
你应该试试看过我的生活
Oh I know I’m not the only one, oh yeah
我明白这样的命运不止降临我一人
Who feels like I, I don’t belong
谁能体会我的心境,我不属于这里
It’s a hard life on easy street
在这片富饶的土地上过着艰难的生活
Just white painted picket fences far as you can see
目及之处只有白漆的尖桩篱笆
And if you think we live in the land of the free
假如你认为我们生活在自由的国度
Then you should try to be, oh black like me
那你就应该试试看过我的生活
Oh, and someday we’ll all be free
终有一天我们都会获得自由
And I’m proud to be, oh black like me
而我将为自己是黑人无比骄傲
And I’m proud to be black like me
而我将为自己是黑人无比骄傲
Proud to be black like me
而我将为自己是黑人无比骄傲
Black like me
而我将为自己是黑人无比骄傲
