《The Promised Land》歌词

[00:00:00] The Promised Land (乐土) - The Strawbs

[00:00:23] It was early in the morning

[00:00:26] And our ship was still at sea

[00:00:30] With a lifetime far behind us we were free

[00:00:36] We had strong hearts and a faith

[00:00:39] In our good Lord's guiding hands;

[00:00:42] The mist before us cleared

[00:00:45] And we saw the promised land

[00:00:59] With our brothers and our sisters

[00:01:01] We soon forged into the land

[00:01:05] Building towns and cities

[00:01:07] Far beyond our dreams

[00:01:11] As the tree which reaches to the sky

[00:01:14] The child who learns to stand

[00:01:17] So we had men of vision

[00:01:19] To create the promised land

[00:01:33] But the vision soon became

[00:01:36] One man's view of wealth and fame

[00:01:39] And the gun became

[00:01:40] What wisdom used to be

[00:01:45] So the struggle had begun

[00:01:47] Which has never yet been won

[00:01:50] Hear the people

[00:01:51] Hear them saying "Are we free "

[00:02:26] So God bless you my promised land

[00:02:29] Let nothing you dismay

[00:02:32] For the hand that guides

[00:02:33] Our fortunes has strange ways

[00:02:38] And when the fight is over

[00:02:40] And the judgment is at hand

[00:02:44] Please don't forget our brothers

[00:02:46] Far beyond the promised land
