The House I Live In 歌詞

The House I Live In - Sam Cooke (山姆·庫克)

The house I live in

 

A plot of earth a street

 

The grocer and the butcher

 

And the people that I meet

 

The children in the playground

 

The faces that I see

 

All races all religions

 

That's America to me

 

The place I work in the worker by my side

 

The little town or city where my people lived and died

 

The "howdy" and the handshake

The air of feeling free

 

And the right to speak my mind out

 

That's America to me

 

The things I see about me

 

The big things and the small

 

The little corner newsstand and the house a mile tall

 

The wedding in the churchyard

 

The laughter and the tears

 

The dream that's been a-growin' for a hundred and fifty years

 

The town I live in

 

The street the house the room

 

The pavement of the city

 

Or a garden all in bloom

 

The church the school the clubhouse

 

The millions lights I see

 

But especially the people

 

 

That's America to me
