Corey Smith - Throwbacks

Текст

We were sitting 'round a fire, just me and my two boys.

I was shuffling through some classics I thought they might enjoy,

The ones I cut my teeth on, circa 1994,

when life was but a song and I was still figuring out the chords:

"Here's a Quarter", "Chattahoochee", "Killin' Time" and "Rodeo".

I said, "This was how our country sounded, about 20 years ago.

But there ain't much old school in the new wave.

There ain't much back then around these days.

Nothing suits me like the old hats

and nothing moves me like the throwbacks.

The throwbacks."

I said "Those true and friendly voices, those familiar words,

hit my heart and make it fonder of back then and how things were,

when the outskirts of Atlanta seemed another world away

and the neighborhood we're living in was just a field of hay,

before the country turned to suburb and slow went out of style.

Boys, when I was growing up here we had gravel roads for miles.

But there ain't much old school in the new wave.

There ain't much back then around these days.

Nothing suits me like the old hats

and nothing moves me like the throwbacks.

The throwbacks."

Now my kids know the words to the songs I loved back then.

Lord, I pray they'll keep on playing 'em over and over and over,

over and over again.

We need some old school in the new wave.

We need some back then, now and always.

Oh it might sound a little old hat,

but I say, "Long live the throwbacks.

The throwbacks."

Перевод

Мы сидели вокруг костра, только я и двое моих мальчиков.

Я просматривала классику, которая, как мне казалось, им понравится,

Те, на которых я порезал зубы, примерно 1994 год,

когда жизнь была всего лишь песней, а я все еще разбирал аккорды:

"Here's a Quarter", "Chattahoochee", "Killin' Time" и "Rodeo".

Я сказал: "Вот как наша страна прозвучало лет 20 назад.

Но в новой волне не так уж и много старой школы.

Тогда в наши дни их не так много.

Ничто не подходит мне так, как старые шляпы

И ничто не волнует меня так, как воспоминания.

Воспоминания.»

Я сказал: «Эти искренние и дружелюбные голоса, эти знакомые слова

попали в мое сердце и сделали его еще более любящим тогда и как все было,

когда окраины Атланты казались другим миром

а район, в котором мы живем, был просто полем сена,

до того, как страна превратилась в пригород и медленно вышла из моды .

Ребята, когда я здесь рос, у нас были гравийные дороги на многие мили.

Но в новой волне не так уж много старой школы.

Тогда их было не так уж и много вокруг этих дней.

Ничто не подходит мне так, как старые шляпы

и ничто не волнует меня так, как воспоминания.

Воспоминания."

Теперь мои дети знают слова песен, которые я тогда любила.

Господи, я молюсь, чтобы они продолжали играть в них снова и снова и снова,

снова и снова.

Нам нужна старая школа в новой волне.

Нам нужно некоторые тогда, сейчас и всегда.

О, возможно, это звучит немного старомодно,

, но я говорю: «Да здравствуют воспоминания.

Возвраты».
