Sped 'round ever corner 加快“圆曾经的角落

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window 从后座窗口打出了兔子

Sat and watched the summer corn grow 周六，看着夏玉米生长

Ate ice cream in a desert dream 吃冰淇淋在沙漠中的梦

And got lost in father's singing 而迷失在父亲的歌声

Too hot inside 太热内

Too hot outside 外面太热

Lazy days when I said let's go for a ride 懒洋洋的日子，当我说让我们去兜风

We'll sail on Spirit Lake 我们将航行在灵湖
