歌词
I got my first real six-string
我拥有了人生第一把六弦琴
Bought it at the five-and-dime
在"Five and Dime"商店里买到(五六十年代美国商店)
Played it 'till my fingers bled
爱不释手 弹到四指流血
Was the summer of 69
那是1969的浪漫夏日
Me and some guys from school
我和学校的几个哥们儿
Had a band and we tried real hard
组建了一个乐队 我们都蛮拼的
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
但是Jimmy退出了 Jody结婚了
Shoulda known we'd never get far
早该知道我们走不远
现在当我回忆往事
Oh when I look back now
那个夏天仿佛还是会持续到永远
That summer seemed to last forever
若我有选择的机会
And if I had the choice
是啊 我想永远停留在那时
Yeah - I'd always wanna be there
那是我人生的黄金时光
Those were the best days of my life
你也无法有所怨言
Ain't no use in complainin'
当你有了工作去做
When you got a job to do
每晚在露天电影院工作
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
也就是那时我遇见了你
And that's when I met you yeah
你站在妈妈家的门廊
Standin' on your Mama's porch
你告诉我会永远等待
You told me that you'd wait forever
当你轻握我手
Oh and when you held my hand
我清楚 那是绝佳时机
I knew that it was now or never
那是我人生的黄金时光
Those were the best days of my life
回到1969的浪漫夏日
Back in the summer of 69
那时我们肆意挥霍青春
Man we were killin' time
我们意气风发 一刻也不消停
We were young and restless
我们渴望自由不羁
We needed to unwind
而现在明白没有什么可以长久
I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no, yeah
如今时过境迁
And now the times are changin'
遍览世事无常 来去不定
Look at everything that's come and gone
而有时当我再次弹起那把旧吉他
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
我会想起你 疑惑那时究竟是谁的错
I think about you, wonder what went wrong
你站在妈妈家的门廊
Standin' on your Mama's porch
你告诉我会永远等待
You told me that it'd last forever
当你轻握我手
Oh when you held my hand
我清楚 那是绝佳时机
I knew that it was now or never
那是我人生的黄金时光
Those were the best days of my life, oh yeah
回到1969的浪漫夏日
Back in the summer of 69, uh-huh
那是1969的浪漫夏日 我与年少的恋人缠绵不休
It was the summer of 69, o yeah, me n my baby in 69
那是1969的浪漫夏日
It was the summer, the summer, summer of 69
