Us In The USA – 英语/中文 双语歌词

• 作者: Tom MacDonald

歌词与翻译

[中文]

我们依然不相信新闻头条，但这没关系

我们觉得他们想让我们进坟墓

我们竭尽全力，祈祷着改变会到来

我们每天都让USA中充满“我们”

我们定义了USA中的“我们”

我们是州际公路上奔跑的柴油卡车

在孩子嬉戏的院子里飘扬着旗帜

有星条旗，有响尾蛇

是我，是你，是红、白、蓝三色

伴随着美国梦和税单

我们赢得了二战，我们将人类送上月球

当然，这取决于你问谁

我们定义了USA中的“我们” (USA, USA, USA)

我们定义了USA中的“我们” (USA, USA, USA)

我们定义了USA中的“我们” (USA, USA, USA)

我们定义了USA中的“我们” (USA, USA, USA)

我们依然不相信政府推卸责任的说法

媒体说这个国家很安全，但事实并非如此

我们竭尽全力，祈祷着改变会到来

我们每天都让USA中充满“我们”

我们定义了USA中的“我们”

我们才是美国伟大的原因

这里是自由之家，我们挥舞着旗帜

所有的星条旗和响尾蛇

是我，是你，是红、白、蓝三色

伴随着美国梦和税单

我们赢得了二战，我们将人类送上月球

当然，这取决于你问谁

我们定义了USA中的“我们” (USA, USA, USA)

我们定义了USA中的“我们” (USA, USA, USA)

我们定义了USA中的“我们” (USA, USA, USA)

我们定义了USA中的“我们” (USA, USA, USA)

[英语]

We still don't trust what the headlines say, that's okay

We think that they want us to be laid in a grave

We do our best, we pray and we pray for a change

We put the "us" in the USA everyday

We put the "us" in the USA

We're the diesel trucks on the interstate

Flags in our yards, where our children play

Stars and stripes and rattlesnakes

And it's me, and it's you, and it's red, white, and blue

With American dreams and taxes

Wе won World War II, we put man on the moon

Well, dеpending who you asking

We put the "us" in the USA (USA, USA, USA)

We put the "us" in the USA (USA, USA, USA)

We put the "us" in the USA (USA, USA, USA)

We put the "us" in the USA (USA, USA, USA)

We still don't trust what the government claims is the blame

And the media says the country is safe, but it ain't

We do our best, we pray and we pray for a change

We put the "us" in the USA everyday

We put the "us" in the USA

We're the reason why America's great

It's the home of the free and the flags we wave

All the stars and stripes and rattlesnakes

And it's me, and it's you, and it's red, white, and blue

With American dreams and taxes

We won World War II, we put man on the moon

Well, depending who you asking

We put the "us" in the USA (USA, USA, USA)

We put the "us" in the USA (USA, USA, USA)

We put the "us" in the USA (USA, USA, USA)

We put the "us" in the USA (USA, USA, USA)
