《The House I Live In》歌词

[00:00:00] The House I Live In - Sam Cooke (萨姆·库克)

[00:00:10] Written by：L. Allan/E. Robinson

[00:00:21] The house I live in

[00:00:25] A plot of earth a street

[00:00:29] The grocer and the butcher

[00:00:33] And the people that I meet

[00:00:38] The children in the playground

[00:00:42] The faces that I see

[00:00:46] All races all religions

[00:00:51] That's America to me

[00:01:07] The place I work in the worker at my side

[00:01:15] The little town or city where my people lived and died

[00:01:24] The howdy and the handshake

[00:01:28] The air of feeling free

[00:01:32] The right to speak my mind out

[00:01:37] That's America to me

[00:01:51] The things I see about me

[00:01:55] The big things and the small

[00:01:59] The little corner newsstand and the house a mile tall

[00:02:07] The wedding in the churchyard

[00:02:11] The laughter and the tears

[00:02:15] The dream that's been a growin' for a hundred and fifty years

[00:02:27] The town I live in

[00:02:31] The street the house the room

[00:02:35] The pavement of the city

[00:02:39] Or a garden all in bloom

[00:02:43] The church the school the clubhouse

[00:02:47] The millions lights I see

[00:02:52] But especially the people

[00:02:57] That's America to me
