[00:30.89] | In the spring of forty-seven, |
[00:37.64] | So the story, it is told, |
[00:44.89] | Old john sutter went to the mill site |
[00:52.19] | Found a piece of shining gold. |
[00:59.23] | Well, he took it to the city |
[01:06.44] | Where the word, like wildfire, spread. |
[01:13.36] | And old john sutter soon came to wish he'd |
[01:20.41] | Left that stone in the river bed. |
[01:27.79] | For they came like herds of locusts |
[01:35.11] | Every woman, child and man |
[01:42.27] | In their lumbering conestogas |
[01:49.20] | They left their tracks upon the land. |
[01:55.01] | (chorus) |
[01:55.60] | Some would fail and some would prosper |
[02:03.30] | Some would die and some would kill |
[02:10.76] | Some would thank the lord for their deliverance |
[02:17.79] | And some would curse john sutter's mill. |
[02:25.34] | Well, they came from new york city, |
[02:32.18] | And they came from alabam' |
[02:39.29] | With their dreams of finding fortunes |
[02:46.63] | In this wild unsettled land. |
[02:53.72] | Well, some fell prey to hostile arrows |
[03:01.14] | As they tried to cross the plains. |
[03:07.98] | And some were lost in the rocky mountains |
[03:15.14] | With their hands froze to the reins. |
[03:21.01] | Oh... |
[03:22.99] | (chorus) |
[03:23.00] | Some would fail and some would prosper |
[03:29.80] | Some would die and some would kill |
[03:37.26] | Some would thank the lord for their deliverance |
[03:44.39] | And some would curse john sutter's mill. |
[03:51.90] | (music) |
[04:11.36] | |
[04:19.29] | Well, some pushed on to california |
[04:27.09] | And others stopped to take their rest. |
[04:34.05] | And by the spring of eighteen-sixty |
[04:41.12] | They had opened up the west. |
[04:48.13] | And then the railroad came behind them |
[04:55.30] | And the land was plowed and tamed, |
[05:02.22] | When old john sutter went to meet his maker, |
[05:09.68] | He'd not one penny to his name. |
[05:15.93] | Oh... |
[05:16.76] | (chorus) |
[05:17.25] | Some would fail and some would prosper |
[05:24.23] | Some would die and some would kill |
[05:31.35] | Some would thank the lord for their deliverance |
[05:38.44] | And some would curse john sutter's mill. |
[05:45.22] | And some would curse john sutter's mill |
[05:52.39] | Some men's thirsts are never filled. |

[00:30.89] | 那是1847年的春天 |
[00:37.64] | 故事便从那时开始 |
[00:44.89] | 老约翰.萨特在磨坊外 |
[00:52.19] | 捡到了一块金子 |
[00:59.23] | 于是他带着它去了城里 |
[01:06.44] | 在那里关于金矿的消息 ,如野火般蔓延开来 |
[01:13.36] | 老萨特很快开始后悔 |
[01:20.41] | 为什么不把那块石头留在河床上 |
[01:27.79] | 人们如同成群的蝗虫聚集 |
[01:35.11] | 男人、女人和孩子们 |
[01:42.27] | 在大篷车笨重的前行中 |
[01:49.20] | 将车辙留在原野上 |
[01:55.60] | 有人无功而返 ,有人得偿所愿 |
[02:03.30] | 有人长眠异乡 ,有人图财害命 |
[02:10.76] | 有人将感激上帝解脱了他们 |
[02:17.79] | 有人会诅咒约翰萨特的磨房 |
[02:25.34] | 他们有的来自纽约 |
[02:32.18] | 有的来自阿拉巴马 |
[02:39.29] | 他们做着发财梦 |
[02:46.63] | 来到这片荒蛮的土地 |
[02:53.72] | 一些人命丧箭下 |
[03:01.14] | 在他们试图穿越平原时 |
[03:07.98] | 一些人消失在落基山脉 |
[03:15.14] | 身体冻僵而死 |
[03:21.01] | 噢 |
[03:23.00] | 有人无功而返 ,有人得偿所愿 |
[03:29.80] | 有人长眠异乡 ,有人图财害命 |
[03:37.26] | 有人将感激上帝解脱了他们 |
[03:44.39] | 有人会诅咒约翰萨特的磨房 |
[04:19.29] | 一些人执著前行奔向加州 |
[04:27.09] | 一些人驻足不前休养生息 |
[04:34.05] | 在1860年的春天 |
[04:41.12] | 他们终于征服了西部 |
[04:48.13] | 铁路紧随其后,铺往西部 |
[04:55.30] | 这片土地终于被开发和征服 |
[05:02.22] | 然而当约翰萨特离开人世时 |
[05:09.68] | 自己却一文不名 |
[05:15.93] | 噢 |
[05:17.25] | 有人无功而返 ,有人得偿所愿 |
[05:24.23] | 有人长眠异乡 ,有人图财害命 |
[05:31.35] | 有人将感激上帝解脱了他们 |
[05:38.44] | 有人会诅咒约翰萨特的磨房 |
[05:45.22] | 有人会诅咒约翰萨特的磨房 |
[05:52.39] | 有人的欲望却永远无法满足 |
