A long long time ago
在很久以前
I can still remember

How that music used to make me smile

And I knew that if I had my chance

I could make those people dance

And maybe they'd be happy for a while

Did you write the book of love

And do you have faith in God above

If the Bible tells you so

Now do you believe in rock'n roll

And can music save your mortal soul

And can you teach me how to dance real slow

Well I know that you're in love with him

Cause I saw you dancin' in the gym
因为我看到你们在体育馆里跳舞
You both kicked off your shoes
你们脱掉了自己的鞋子
Man I dig those rhythm 'n blues
伴着那蓝调的音乐
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
那时的我 只是一个落寞的年轻人
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
拿着一束康乃馨 开着小货车
But I knew that I was out of luck
但是我早已将运气耗尽
The day the music died
在音乐消亡的那一天
I started singin'
我开始歌唱
Bye bye Miss American Pie
再见了 美国派小姐
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
开着雪佛兰车驶向河堤 但是河水早已干涸
And good ol' boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
一个乡下小伙喝着威士忌和黑麦酒
Singin' 'this will be the day that I die

This will be the day that I die

I met a girl who sang the blues

And I asked her for some happy news

But she just smiled and turned away

Well I went down to the sacred store
我走进那神圣的商店
Where I'd heard the music years before
在那里我听到了多年前听到的那首歌
And the men there said the music couldn't play
但是它早已不能播放
Well now in the streets the children screamed
街上的孩子喧闹不已
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
恋人们在哭泣 而诗人们做着梦
But not a word was spoken
但是没有人说话
The church bells all were broken
教堂的钟早已坏掉
And the three men I admire most

The Father Son and the Holy Ghost
圣父 圣子 还有那高贵的灵魂
They caught the last train for the coast

The day the music died

We start singin
