The USA Begins With US
Let's do this! You guys just follow me, alright? I got it
我们开始下一首歌吧!你们按我的节奏进好吗?收到。
You know, the Hot Country Knights have played shows in all forty-eight states...
HCK的巡演已经走遍了北美48个州——
We've played for every kind of American and even a few Canadians...
我们给各地的美国人都表演过,其中也有些加拿大人——
But this song is not for them!
但这首歌,不是写给他们的!
Alright! When we look out every night at our sold-out crowds just like right here tonight in...anyway...
好啦!每场演出门票都售罄了,我们每次看到观众席下的你们——就像今晚一样——
We don't see, black, white or brown...no!
我们看不到黑人白人黄种人——
In fact we don't see colors...we only see red, white and blue!
我们不会看到人种的分别——我们眼里看到的,只有美国国旗的红白蓝
That's right..now these days...hang on...
对啦——这些天啊——等一下——
These days there's a lot of people that want to divide us.
这些天总有很多人试图分裂我们。
Well, I'm no math genius like all those smarty dudes in D.C..
我不是华盛顿那种聪明的家伙,不是什么数学天才。
But I know that division is the exact same thing as subtraction...am I right?
但我知道这样的分裂(除法)和削减(减法)我们是一回事儿。我说的对吗?
And the Knights are not about subtraction! We're all about addition!HCK
可不接受这种减法!我们只会为国家做加法!
In fact...an American probably invented addition.
事实上,加法说不准还是美国人发明的。
The U...hang on.
再等一下——
Now this morning I was checking the tag on my underwear to make sure it was mine...it was...
今天早上我检查我内裤上的标签,确定那条内裤是我的——没错是我的——
There's a little tag in there that says "Made in China."
上面的标签写着“中国制造”。
But I remember when those tags used to say "Made in the USA!"
但我还记得很久以前上面的标签还是“美国制造”!
And that got me thinking...it inspired me to write this little song right here about twenty minutes ago...because...
这让我开始思考——这件事启发我在20分钟前写了这首歌,因为——
Hang on! Hang on! I'm onto something.
等一下等一下,我还要说话呢——
What I realized is the USA begins with US!
我意识到,美国(USA)的开头是“我们”(US)!
It does! It actually begins with a U and an S!
真的是这样,俩大字写着“我”(U)“们”(S)!
The USA begins with US
美国由我们创造
A freedom dream bought with blood
自由的梦想 由鲜血浇灌而来
Together we can stand as one
我们站在一起 团结一心
The USA begins with US
美国由人民建立
Mod! If you're an American...come on!
只要你是美国人就加入进来吧!
The USA (we're all US)
美利坚合众国(我们都是美国人)
Begins with US (All people)
由我们创造(这里每一个人)
A freedom dream (Weirdos)
自由的梦想(所谓的怪人也是)
Bought with blood (Bass players, hell yeah)
由鲜血浇灌而来(我的贝斯手)
Together we can stand as one (Even bass players. Hey, that's me)
我们站在一起 团结一心(甚至是我的贝斯手,贝斯手:对是我)
The USA begins with US (freedom is not free, it's expensive)
美国由我们创造(自由来之不易 我们付出了代价)
The USA begins with US
美国由人民建立
I pledge allegiance...say it with me...I pledge allegiance...hallowed be they name..to the republic for which it stands...amen!
我向国家宣誓效忠——跟我一起说——我向国家宣誓——以神圣之名起誓——向我的祖国起誓效忠——阿门!
One more time, keep it going, keep it going! USA, U...USA
再来一次,继续喊,继续喊!
Franklin D. Rosevelt: The only thing we have to fear is fear itself
“我们恐惧的只是恐惧本身。”
Yeah
John F. Kennedy: Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country
“不要问国家能为你做什么,问问自己能为国家做些什么。”
That's right
Richard Nixon: 'Cause people have got to know whether or not their president's a crook, well I'm not a crook
“人们必须知道自己的总统是不是骗子,我不是骗子。”
Bill Clinton: I did not have sexual relations with that woman
“我没和那个女人发生关系。”
George W. Bush: There's an old sayin' in Tennessee, I know it's actually in Tennessee that says "Fool me once shame on...shame on you. Fool me, you can't get fooled again“
“田纳西有句老话,我知道是这么说的:愚我一次,其错在人。我们不会被人骗第二次。”
USA, USA...
