추석 잘 쉬셨는지...
고향에 가고 오는 이 시절에
듣기 좋은 라이언 아담스의 좋은 노래.
I went down to Houston
And I stopped in San Antone
I passed up the station for the bus
I was trying to find me something
But I wasn't sure just what
Man I ended up with pockets full of dust
So I went on to Cleveland and I ended up insane
I bought a borrowed suit and learned to dance
I was spending money like the way it likes to rain
Man I ended up with pockets full of cane
Oh my sweet Carolina
What compels me to go
Oh my sweet disposition
May you one day carry me home
I ain't never been to Vegas but I gambled up my life
Building newsprint boats I race to sewer mains
Was trying to find me something but I wasn't sure just what
Funny how they say that some things never change
Oh my sweet Carolina
What compels me to go
Oh my sweet disposition
May you one day carry me home
Up here in the city feels like things are closing in
The sunsets just my light bulb burning out
I miss Kentucky and I miss my family
All the sweetest winds they blow across the south
Oh my sweet Carolina
What compels me to go
Oh my sweet disposition
May you one day carry me home
May you one day carry me home
미국 사람들도 우리와 마찬가지로
외롭고 쓸쓸한 저녁에
사는게 막막하면 고향 생각한다.
라이언 아담스도 고된 시절에
끝까지 몰리는 지경에 이르러 고향 생각하며
이 곡을 만들었다고...
사람 사는 일이 이천년 전
두보 시절이나
바다 건너 색목인들이나
내남없다.
누구에게나
돌아 가고 싶고
의지가지가 되는
캐롤라이나는 있는 법이니까.
"May you one day carry me home"
