《What Is Truth》歌词

[00:00:00] What Is Truth - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:09] The old man turned off the radio

[00:00:12] Said Where did all of the old songs go

[00:00:15] Kids sure play funny music these days

[00:00:18] They play it in the strangest ways

[00:00:21] Said it looks to me like

[00:00:22] They've all gone wild

[00:00:24] It was peaceful back when I was a child

[00:00:26] Well man could it be that the girls and boys

[00:00:29] Are trying to be heard above your noise

[00:00:32] And the lonely voice of youth cries

[00:00:35] What is truth

[00:00:40] A little boy of three sitting on the floor

[00:00:43] Looks up and says Daddy what is war

[00:00:46] Son that's when people fight and die

[00:00:48] The little boy of three says Daddy why

[00:00:51] A young man of seventeen in Sunday school

[00:00:54] Being taught the golden rule

[00:00:56] And by the time another year has gone around

[00:00:59] It may be his turn to lay his life down

[00:01:02] Can you blame the voice of youth for asking

[00:01:06] What is truth

[00:01:18] Young man sitting on the witness stand

[00:01:20] The man with the book says Raise your hand

[00:01:23] Repeat after me I solemnly swear

[00:01:26] The man looked down at his long hair

[00:01:29] And although the young man solemnly swore

[00:01:32] Nobody seems to hear anymore

[00:01:34] And it didn't really matter

[00:01:36] If the truth was there

[00:01:37] It was the cut of his clothes

[00:01:38] And the length of his hair

[00:01:40] And the lonely voice of youth cries

[00:01:44] What is truth

[00:01:54] The young girl dancing to the latest beat

[00:01:57] Has found new ways to move her feet

[00:01:59] The young man speaking in the city square

[00:02:02] Is trying to tell somebody that he cares

[00:02:05] Yeah the ones that you're calling wild

[00:02:08] Are going to be the leaders in a little while

[00:02:10] This old world's wakin' to a new born day

[00:02:13] And I solemnly swear that it'll be their way

[00:02:18] You better help the voice of youth find

[00:02:22] What is truth

[00:02:25] And the lonely voice of youth cries

[00:02:30] What is truth
