《The House I Live in》歌词

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

[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

[00:01:08] The place I work in the worker by my side

[00:01:16] The little town or city where my people lived and died

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

[00:01:27] The air of feeling free

[00:01:32] And 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

[00:02:08] 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

[00:02:28] The town I live in

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

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

[00:02:38] 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

[00:02:56] That's America to me
