Penelope works in the market 佩内洛普的作品在市场上

Down in the coconut trees 相传在椰子树

She's saving up all her money 她拯救了她所有的钱

To go to America across the sea 去美国隔海相望

   

She once had an uncle 她曾经有一个叔叔

He lived in Detroit town 他住在底特律城区

They got all his post cards 他们得到了所有他的明信片

But his body has never been found 但他的身体从来没有被发现

   

To this day 为了这一天

To this day 为了这一天

   

She got a job as a domestic 她找到了一份工作作为国内

Workin' for the minimum wage 日夜不停的为最低工资

All her friends back home in Jamaica 她所有的朋友回家牙买加

They say, 'You really got it made in the shade' 他们说，你真的得到了它在树荫下做

   

But they don't see her sweat and grind 但他们没有看到她的汗水和磨

And her bended on her knees 她弯曲她的膝盖上

She wishes she was back in Jamaica 她希望她回到了牙买加

Beneath the coconut trees 下方的椰子树

She found what it was all about 她发现这是什么一回事

Oh no, she doesn't regret it 哦，不，她不后悔

She's just glad that she got out 她只是很高兴，她下了车

   

But others aren't so lucky 但其他人则没有这么幸运

They're there till the day they die 他们在那里，直到终老

Trapped in steel and concrete 被困在钢筋和混凝土

No beach No moon No sky 没有沙滩没有月亮没有天空
