There's a Star Spangled Banner Waving Somewhere
There's a Star Spangled Banner Waving Somewhere
Lyrics
There's a Star-Spangled Banner waving somewhere In a distant land so many miles away. Only Uncle Sam's great heroes get to go there Where I wish that I could also live some day. I'd see Lincoln, Custer, Washington and Perry, And Nathan Hale and Colin Kelly, too. There's a Star-Spangled Banner waving somewhere, Waving o'er the land of heroes brave and true.
In this war with its mad schemes of destruction Of our country fair and our sweet liberty, By the mad dictators, leaders of corruption, Can't the U. S. use a mountain boy like me? God gave me the right to be a free American, And for that precious right I'd gladly die. There's a Star-Spangled Banner waving somewhere, That is where I want to live when I die.
Though I realize I'm crippled, that is true, sir, Please don't judge my courage by my twisted leg. Let me show my Uncle Sam what I can do, sir, Let me help to bring the Axis down a peg. If I do some great deed I will be a hero, And a hero brave is what I want to be. There's a Star-Spangled Banner waving somewhere, In that heaven there should be a place for me.
中文歌词
有星条旗在某处飘扬
在遥远的土地上，数千英里之外。
只有山姆大叔的伟大英雄才能去那里
我希望有一天也能在那里生活。
我会见到林肯、卡斯特、华盛顿和佩里，
还有内森·黑尔和科林·凯利。
有星条旗在某处飘扬，
在勇敢而忠诚的英雄之地飘扬。
在这场战争中，带着它疯狂的破坏计划
我们美丽的国家和我们甜蜜的自由，
被疯狂的独裁者，腐败的领袖，
美国不能用像我这样的山里男孩吗？
上帝给了我作为自由美国人的权利，
为了那宝贵的权利，我愿意欣然赴死。
某处有星条旗在飘扬，
那就是我死后想生活的地方。
虽然我意识到自己是残疾的，这是真的，先生，
请不要用我扭曲的腿来判断我的勇气。
让我向我的山姆大叔展示我能做什么，先生，
让我帮助挫败轴心国。
如果我做一些伟大的事，我将成为英雄，
而勇敢的英雄就是我想成为的。
某处有星条旗在飘扬，
在那个天堂里，应该有我的位置。
