Factory Girl
As I went out walking one fine summer morning
The birds in the bushes did whistle and sing
The lads and the lassies in couples were courtin'
Going back to the factory their work to begin
He spied one among them, she was fairer than any
Her cheeks like the red rose that blooms in the spring
Her hair like the lily that grows in yon valley
She was only a hard working factory girl
He steps up beside her, more closely to view her
She says "My young man, don't stare me so
I've gold in my pocket and silver as well
No more will I answer that factory call"
Now the years have gone past
From the days of our youth
Our home is now teemin'
With children at play
Life goes on in the village
You can still hear the whistle
"Hey there goes that lad
With his factory girl."
You can still hear the sound
Of the factory call.
一個晴朗的夏日清晨當我出去散步,
鳥兒在灌木叢中歌唱
小伙子們和姑娘一雙雙的在求愛
回到工廠工作開始
他發現其中一個,她是那麼的清秀,
她的臉頰紅得像春天盛開的玫瑰,
她的頭髮像那山谷的百合
她只是一個勤勞的工廠女孩
他在她身邊甜言蜜語,更貼近地觀看她
她說:“我年輕的伙子,不要盯著我,
我的口袋裡有金,也有銀,
再不接工廠打來的電話了 ...
年华已逝,情牵多年,
儿女嬉戏,家庭圆满,
在乡村如是生活着。
你依然能够听见哨声
“嘿,那小伙子和工厂女孩走过来了。”
你依然能够听见,
那工厂打来的电话。
