《Country Dreams(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Country Dreams (国家梦想) (LP版) - Harry Chapin

[00:00:11] This phone's growin' into my ear

[00:00:14] I made three hundred calls today

[00:00:17] Though yours is the only voice that I wanna hear

[00:00:20] I got to make me a livin' someway

[00:00:23] I know you hate me doin' this

[00:00:26] You say I'm sellin' out

[00:00:29] But how in the hell is a man supposed to live

[00:00:32] Sellin's what it's all about

[00:00:36] Hello Sir I'm the Pocono Land Development Company

[00:00:42] And I'm callin' you with an offer of some land

[00:00:46] That you'll just have to see

[00:00:48] A quarter acre plot that's what I've got for you

[00:00:53] Nineteen ninety five four hundred dollars down

[00:00:57] And just ten bucks a week

[00:01:02] It's two short hours from New York city

[00:01:05] A Pocono Land site green and pretty

[00:01:07] There's lakes there and trout streams

[00:01:10] Mountain views country dreams country dreams

[00:01:24] We dreamed our dreams in college girl

[00:01:27] Back then we thought we should

[00:01:29] And we promised that we would save the world

[00:01:32] Way back then we thought we could

[00:01:36] I know you love your teachin' now

[00:01:38] But I wish you'd understand

[00:01:41] There aren't that many jobs around

[00:01:44] I'm doin' the best I can

[00:01:48] Hello Sir I'm the Pocono Land Development Company

[00:01:54] And I'm callin' you with an offer of some land

[00:01:58] That you'll just have to see

[00:02:00] A quarter acre plot that's what I've got for you

[00:02:05] Nineteen ninety five four hundred dollars down

[00:02:10] And just ten bucks a week

[00:02:15] It's two short hours from New York city

[00:02:17] A Pocono Land site green and pretty

[00:02:20] There's lakes there and trout streams

[00:02:24] Mountain views country dreams country dreams

[00:02:37] I'm here with forty other guys crowded in a room

[00:02:40] Makin' a livin' sellin' the moon and rustic dreams in June

[00:02:46] I used to hate the city now I'm dwellin' in it

[00:02:49] Used to love the country now I'm sellin' it

[00:02:52] I'm doin' well at it that's the hell of it

[00:02:59] I said that we would find a farm

[00:03:02] And live out on the land

[00:03:04] It's strange how dreams come back at us

[00:03:07] In ways that we had never planned

[00:03:10] Here I'm sellin' real estate

[00:03:13] And laughin' at myself

[00:03:16] If I can't have my country dream

[00:03:19] I'm gonna sell it out to somebody else

[00:03:24] Hello Sir I'm the Pocono Land Development Company

[00:03:30] And I'm callin' you with an offer of some land

[00:03:34] That you'll just have to see

[00:03:36] A quarter acre plot that's what I've got for you

[00:03:41] Nineteen ninety five four hundred dollars down

[00:03:46] And just ten bucks a week

[00:03:50] It's two short hours from New York city

[00:03:53] A Pocono Land site green and pretty

[00:03:56] There's lakes there and trout streams

[00:03:59] Mountain views country dreams country dreams

[00:04:13] Darlin' don't get mad at me

[00:04:15] I'm doin' this for you

[00:04:18] It's really not so sad to see

[00:04:21] We had growin' up to do country dreams

[00:04:30] Oh please don't push me anymore

[00:04:32] It's gonna work out fine

[00:04:35] I know I said I'd quit before

[00:04:38] But just give me a little more time country dreams
