评论:
Jimmy Martin被誉为“蓝草音乐之王”,这支“田纳西”非常动听,里面提到了曾在阿拉莫战役中英勇捐躯的田纳西英雄戴维·克洛科特,还有一段旋律是来自于著名乡村艺人Little Jimmy Dickens的"Take an Old Cold Tater (And Wait)"
中文歌词:
你曾听说过关于田纳西州的情况吗?
那是南方各州中我最向往的地方
在那儿绿荫遮蔽着山谷,群山是多么挺拔
当你听见人们说“欢迎”时
你就会明白我所说的一切
田纳西
我听见你在召唤我
戴维·克罗科特的故乡
就在田纳西的群山之间
当我还是小孩子的时候
整天在家围着大人们转,
母亲总是告诉我:
杰米,不要出去漂泊。
可我现在还是离开了故土
心中满是哀伤
当我想起家乡的爸妈
就打定主意要回家
如果我早先就曾回到田纳西
我告诉你,那时我就不会再去流浪
那儿有个美人在将我等待
一旦我回到田纳西,我们就将携手成婚
英文歌词:
You have heard and read about the state of Tennessee
Down in the southern states is where I want to be
Where the valleys are so green
and the mountains are so tall
You will know just what I mean when you hear them say "Y'all"
Tennessee (Tennessee)
I hear you calling me (I hear you calling me)
The home of Davey Crockett
in the hills of Tennessee.
When I was a little boy
around the folks back home
My mother always said to me Jimmy,
please don't roam
Now that I have gone away my heart is full of woe
When I think of Mom and Dad
that's where I want to go
If ever I get back to that state of Tennessee
I tell you there'll be no more roaming for me
There lives a sweetheart
who said she'd marry me
As soon as I get back to that state of Tennessee
