Sing a song of long ago 唱了很久以前的一首歌

When things were green and movin' slow 当事情都是绿色，往前缓慢

And people'd stop to say hello 和peopled停下来打个招呼

Or they'd say "hi" to you 或者，他们会说“你好”给你

"Would you like to come over for tea “你愿意来我家喝茶

With the missus and me?" 与太太和我吗？“

It's a real nice way 这是一个真正的好方法

To spend the day 花一天时间

In Dayton, Ohio 在俄亥俄州代顿

On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903 在一个慵懒的周日下午，在1903年

   

Sing a song of long ago 唱了很久以前的一首歌

When things could grow 当事情可能增长

And days flowed quietly 和天悄然流入

The air was clean and you could see 空气是干净的，你可以看到

And folks were nice to you 和乡亲都对你好

"Would you like to come over for tea “你愿意来我家喝茶

With the missus and me?" 与太太和我吗？“

It's a real nice way 这是一个真正的好方法

To spend the day 花一天时间

In Dayton, Ohio 在俄亥俄州代顿

On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903 在一个慵懒的周日下午，在1903年
