《American Waltz》歌词

[00:00:00] American Waltz (Live) - Merle Haggard

[00:00:11] The sweat of the oxen the crack of the whip

[00:00:16] The wheels turn slow in the dust

[00:00:21] And with a heart full of hope

[00:00:23] With desire we wrote California or bust

[00:00:30] And we danced the American waltz

[00:00:36] It couldn't have happened anywhere else

[00:00:41] We used our muscle and we used our minds

[00:00:46] Building a nation a dream at a time

[00:00:56] A horse made of iron that could outrun the wind

[00:01:01] Rode into the next century

[00:01:06] And as the tracks turned to roads

[00:01:09] And the crude oil flowed through

[00:01:12] The veins of the great Model T

[00:01:16] We danced the American waltz

[00:01:22] It couldn't have happened anywhere else

[00:01:27] We used our muscle and we used our minds

[00:01:32] Building a nation a dream at a time

[00:01:42] We had the courage and we made the machines

[00:01:47] O'er like an eagle we flew

[00:01:52] And not long ago God reached out his hand

[00:01:57] To the man who walked on the moon

[00:02:02] And we danced the American waltz

[00:02:07] It couldn't have happened anywhere else

[00:02:13] We used our muscle and we used our minds

[00:02:18] Building a nation a dream at a time

[00:02:23] Dream at a time

[00:02:29] And dreams will go on

[00:02:35] Your mathers and fathers and children

[00:02:41] All on the ways of freedom

[00:02:46] That's all that's all
