歌词
It's a long, long way from Canada
这里与加拿大相隔千山万水
A long way from snow chains
我们带着防滑链才开到这里
Donkey vendors slicing coconut
驴贩子正切开椰子
No parkas to their name
他们可没有属于自己的派克大衣
Black babies covered in baking flour
浑身裹着低筋面粉的黑人娃娃
The cook's got a carnival song
厨师有一首自创的嘉年华颂歌
We're going to lay down someplace shady
我们该找一个阴凉的地方躺下
With dreamland coming on
然后等待梦境前来
Dreamland, dreamland
梦境，是梦境
Dreamland, dreamland
梦境，是梦境
雷利和哥伦布
Walter Raleigh and Chris Columbus
从海面上走来
Come marching out of the waves
并索要海滩和所有的特许权
And claim the beach and all concessions
以这些晒黑的奴隶为名
In the name of the suntan slave
我把那面旗帜裹在身上
I wrapped that flag around me
如同多萝西·拉莫尔扮演的莎笼女皇
Like a Dorothy Lamour sarong
随之我放下了对于这个国民的思考
And I lay down thinking national
等待着梦境前来
With dreamland coming on
梦境，是梦境
Dreamland, dreamland
梦境，是梦境
Dreamland, dreamland
玩得愉快 玛丽和一个赏金猎人
两人都盛装出发跟随鼓声
Goodtime Mary and a fortune hunter
玛丽套着一个羽绒呼啦圈
All dressed up to follow the drums
幸运女郎的大猎枪上插着一朵玫瑰
Mary in a feather hula-hoop
所有的圣人和罪人都散发着光芒
Miss Fortune with a rose on her big game gun
整夜留心着那些喇叭
伴随着桑巴舞的节奏
All saints, all sinners shining
等待进入梦境
Heed those trumpets all night long
梦境，是梦境
Propped up on a samba beat
梦境，是梦境
With dreamland coming on
黑人娃娃和伟大的白人奇迹
Dreamland, dreamland
喝着朗姆酒聊天
Dreamland, dreamland
认识到即将要发生的事情
Tar baby and the Great White Wonder
我们怒火中烧
Talking over a glass of rum
外面的露台上会展开赌局
Burning on the inside
以及午夜时分的草坪漫步
With the knowledge of things to come
它们都会将你带向那诱惑
等待着梦境前来
There's gambling out on the terrace
梦境，是梦境
And midnight ramblin' on the lawn
梦境，是梦境
As they lead toward temptation
在一架飞回冬季的飞机上
With dreamland coming on
一位鞋子里满是热带沙粒
Dreamland, dreamland
裹着异国旗帜的女士
Dreamland, dreamland
正挽着她那爱抽万宝路的男人
In a plane flying back to winter
老鹰在纽约上空嚎叫
In shoes full of tropic sand
种满桃金娘的草坪上堆积着六英尺高的雪
A lady in a foreign flag
他们按下了躺椅的倾斜按钮
On the arm of her Marlboro Man
等待着梦境的到来
The hawk howls in New York City
梦境，是梦境
Six foot drifts on Myrtle's lawn
梦境，是梦境
As they push the recline buttons down
啦，啦……
With dreamland coming on
信风中的非洲沙砾
Dreamland, dreamland
亚马逊河上的朝阳
Dreamland, dreamland
他们按下了倾斜按钮
等待着那梦境的到来
La, La ...
梦境，是梦境
African sand on the trade winds
梦境，是梦境
And the sun on the Amazon
As they push the reline buttons down
With dreamland coming on
Dreamland, dreamland
Dreamland, dreamland
