《Allentown(Live at Shea Stadium， Queens， NY - July 2008)》歌词

[00:00:01] Allentown(Live At Shea 2008) - Billy Joel

[00:00:19] Well we're living here in Allentown

[00:00:23] And they're closing all the factories down

[00:00:27] Out in Bethlehem they're killing time

[00:00:31] Filling out forms

[00:00:33] Standing in line

[00:00:36] Well our fathers fought the Second World War

[00:00:40] Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore

[00:00:44] Met our mothers in the USO

[00:00:48] Asked them to dance

[00:00:50] Danced with them slow

[00:00:52] And we're living here in Allentown

[00:00:57] But the restlessness was handed down

[00:01:01] And it's getting very hard to stay

[00:01:20] Well we're waiting here in Allentown

[00:01:24] For the Pennsylvania we never found

[00:01:28] For the promises our teachers gave

[00:01:32] If we worked hard

[00:01:34] If we behaved

[00:01:36] So the graduations hang on the wall

[00:01:41] But they never really helped us at all

[00:01:45] No they never taught us what was real

[00:01:49] Iron and coke

[00:01:51] And chromium steel

[00:01:53] And we're waiting here in Allentown

[00:01:58] But they've taken all the coal from the ground

[00:02:02] And the union people crawled away

[00:02:16] Every child had a pretty good shot

[00:02:20] To get at least as far as their old man got

[00:02:24] But something happened on the way to that place

[00:02:28] They threw an American flag in our face

[00:02:43] Well living here in Allentown

[00:02:47] And it's hard to keep a good man down

[00:02:51] But I won't be getting up today

[00:03:28] And it's getting very hard to stay

[00:03:34] And we're living here in Allentown
