John Denver是美国著名的乡村音乐歌手,于1943年生于美国西南部的新墨西哥州,曾经学习建筑专业。1971年,他放弃学业,潜心从事乡村歌曲的创作与演唱。起初受到别人的嘲笑,但他始终不为所动。最终在1971年以一曲《Take Me Home, Country road》(《乡路送我回家》)一跃成名为著名乡村音乐歌星。
Country Road Takes Me Home Almost Heaven, West Virginia Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenangoah River Life is old there, older than the trees Younger than the mountains Growing like a breeze Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain mama Take me home, Country Roads All my memories, gathered round her Miner's a lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky Misty taste the moonshine, teardrops in my eye Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain mama Take me home, Country Roads I hear her voice in the morning hours she calls me The radio reminds me of my home far away And driving down the road I get a feeling that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain mama Take me home, Country Roads Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong West Virginia, Mountain mama Take me home, Country Roads Take me home now, Country Roads Take me home now, Country Roads 是首很经典的英文歌-country road《乡村路》乡村路(中文大意的歌词:)~~ 西维吉尼亚几乎就是天堂蓝蓝的丘奇山和仙南度河那儿的历史比树悠久而比山脉青涩如微风般自然乡村路带领我回家回到我所属的地方西维吉尼亚,山岭之母带我回家吧,故乡路我所有的回忆都围绕著她矿工女,对大海完全陌生天空黑暗多尘月光也一样朦胧想到此,使我热泪盈眶乡村路带领我回家回到我所属的地方西维吉尼亚,山岭之母带我回家吧,故乡路我听到她的声音清晨时分呼唤著我收音机使我想起远方的家乡驾车直驱,我感到我昨天就应该回家昨天…乡村路带领我回家回到我所属的地方西维吉尼亚,山岭之母带我回家吧,故乡路
