Heaven Is A Honky Tonk
All my heroes are going to Heaven
我的英雄們都終歸要去天堂
All the junkies and the liars and the fools
那些癮君子、騙子和愚人們
All good-timin' men will leave their voices on the wind
他們的歌聲卻繼續隨風飄揚四方(此處緬懷已經去世的鄉村歌手們)
It's a kindness we cannot repay to them
這是我們無法報答的恩惠
There's a choir singin' in a southern accent, a fiddle in the band
帶著南方口音合唱,這些樂隊總是有提琴
There's a 'Hallelujah!' on the lips of every dying man
口中總是唱著“哈利路亞”
Mama, don't you cry when they're dead and gone
媽媽,當他們故去的時候,你不要哭泣
Jesus , he loves his sinners and Heaven is a honky-tonk

I won't say their names
我不會提及他們的名字
They've been said enough in vain
因為已經徒勞地說了太多遍
Just the memory and the thousand years of smiles
充滿無數歡聲笑語的美好回憶
The lines around your eyes
你眼角的皺紋
Tell me you're not far behind
告訴我你並不是與世隔絕的隱士
But I can see that livin' free was worth the while
但我能看出來灑脫的鄉村生活是值得的
There's a choir singin' in a southern accent, a fiddle in the band

Happiness, they say, is a jukebox that always plays

And a lonesome heart ain't lonely anymore
一顆孤單的心不再寂寞
Every soul that dared passed on is now covered in neon
那些過世的靈魂現在身披霓虹彩燈
They dance with silver wings on wooden floors
張開天使的翅膀在木地板上起舞
