[Chorus]
Take me down to the Paradise City
パラダイスシティに連れて行ってくれ
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
草が緑で女の子が可愛い場所
Take me home (Oh, won't you please take me home?)
故郷に連れていってくれ(故郷に連れて行ってくれないか?)
Take me down to the Paradise City
パラダイスシティに連れて行ってくれ
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
草が緑で女の子が可愛い場所
Take me home (Oh, won't you please take me home?)
故郷に連れて行ってくれ(故郷に連れて行ってくれないか)
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 1]
Just a' urchin livin' under the street, I'm a
地下で暮らすただのわんぱく小僧
Hard case that's tough to beat
手強くて扱いにくい男だ
I'm your charity case, so buy me somethin' to eat
俺はお前の寄付が必要な人間さ 俺に何か食うものを奢ってくれ
I'll pay you at another time
またの機会に払うよ
Take it to the end of the line
死ぬまで待っておけよ
[Verse 2]
Rags to riches, or so they say
成り上がり 人はよくそう言うが
You gotta keep pushin' for the fortune and fame
富と名声のために前に進み続けなきゃいけないのさ
You know it's- it's all a gamble when it's just a game
ゲームにすぎないなら完全にギャンブルだ
You treat it like a capital crime
お前は人生を重罪みたいに受け止める
Everybody's doin' the time
みんな刑期を全うしてるのさ
[Chorus]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home? Yeah-yeah
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
[Verse 3]
Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
街のガス室の椅子に縛り付けられている
Why I'm here, I can't quite remember
俺はどうしてここにいるんだ よく思い出せない
The Surgeon General says it's hazardous to breathe
呼吸するのは危険だと公衆衛生総監は言う
I'd have another cigarette, but I can't see
もう1本タバコが吸いたいが見えない
Tell me who you're gonna believe
お前が誰を信じるのか教えてくれ
[Chorus]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah-yeah
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home? Yeah
[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
So far away
とても遠い
So far away
とても遠い
So far away
とても遠い
So far away
とても遠い
[Verse 4]
Captain America's been torn apart
キャプテン・アメリカは心を引き裂かれた
Now he's a court jester with a broken heart
今じゃ彼は心に傷を負った宮廷道化師だ
He said, "Turn me around and take me back to the start"
彼は、“向きを変えてスタート地点に戻せ”と言った
I must be losin' my mind, "Are you blind?"
俺は正気を失ってるに違いない
お前は目が見えないのか?
I seen it all a million times
100万回見てきたぜ
[Chorus]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah-yeah
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah-yeah
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home?
Home
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]

Take me down to the Paradise City
