歌曲名 Acadian Driftwood (2001 Digital Remaster) 歌手名 The Band

作词：佚名

作曲：Robbie Robertson

The war was over and the spirit was broken

The hills were smoking as the men withdrew

We stood on the cliffs

Oh and watched the ships

Slowly sinking to their rendezvous

They signed a treaty and our homes were taken

Loved ones forsaken

They didn't give a damn

Trying to raise a family

End up the enemy

Over what went down on the plains of Abraham

Acadian driftwood

Gypsy tail wind

They call my home the land of snow

Canadian cold front moving in

What a way to ride

Oh what a way to go

Then some returned to the motherland

The high command had them cast away

And some stayed on to finish what they started

They never parted

They're just built that way

We had kin living south of the border

They're a little older and they've been around

They wrote a letter life is a whole lot better

So pull up your stakes children and come on down

Acadian driftwood

Gypsy tail wind

They call my home the land of snow

Canadian cold front moving in

What a way to ride

Oh what a way to go

Fifteen under zero when the day became a threat

My clothes were wet and I was drenched to the bone

Been out ice fishing too much repetition

Make a man wanna leave the only home he's known

Sailed out of the gulf heading for Saint Pierre

Nothing to declare

All we had was gone

Broke down along the coast

But what hurt the most

When the people there said

You better keep moving on

Acadian driftwood

Gypsy tail wind

They call my home the land of snow

Canadian cold front moving in

What a way to ride

Oh

Everlasting summer filled with ill content

This government had us walking in chains

This isn't my turf

This ain't my season

Can't think of one good reason to remain

We worked in the sugar fields up from New Orleans

It was ever green up until the floods

You could call it an omen

Points ya where you're going

Set my compass north

I got winter in my blood

Acadian driftwood

Gypsy tail wind

They call my home the land of snow

Canadian cold front moving in

What a way to ride

Ah

Sais tu acadie j'ai le mal do pays

Ta neige acadie fait des larmes au soleil

J'arrive acadie teedle um teedle um teedle oo

J'arrive acadie teedle um teedle um teedle oo

J'arrive acadie teedle um teedle um teedle oo

J'arrive acadie teedle um teedle um teedle oo

J'arrive acadie
