《Across America》歌词

[00:00:00] Across America - Nanci Griffith (南西·葛瑞芬)

[00:00:07] I've heard enough from pundits I've heard our leaders speak

[00:00:14] I tell you now I'd rather talk to the people in the streets

[00:00:21] 'Cause you don't know someone until you've looked them in the eye

[00:00:29] And that gave me a purpose and every reason why

[00:00:35] I drove myself across America from sea to shining sea

[00:00:42] From the rocky coast of Maine to the mighty redwood trees

[00:00:49] From the plains of North Dakota to the Gulf of Mexico

[00:00:56] It's good to know that hope's alive again across America

[00:01:11] I spoke to folks in New Orleans with hammers in their hands

[00:01:18] There's a waitress in Missouri who wants her own health plan

[00:01:24] And to the workers up in Michigan in all the auto plants

[00:01:32] There were working men and women saying yes we can

[00:01:53] Your checks and stocks and banks can't take our hope away

[00:02:00] You can't foreclose on hope nobody has to pay

[00:02:09] I drove myself across America from sea to shining sea

[00:02:16] From the rocky coast of Maine to the mighty redwood trees

[00:02:23] From the plains of North Dakota to the Gulf of Mexico

[00:02:29] It's good to know that hope's alive again across America

[00:02:40] It's good to know that hope's alive again across America
