David never played guitar he was a postman on a bike
大卫从不弹吉他 他只是个骑车的邮差
He was just a simple man he never needed city lights
生性简朴的人啊 霓虹灯与他无关
From a small town called Sorrento in 1945 he was a child
1945年的索伦托小镇 他曾是个孩童
Oh and David drank his whiskey as he sat and watched the game
大卫喝着威士忌 闲坐观赛的时光
He was a Collingwood supporter but don't hold that against him
虽支持科林伍德队 但请别因此看轻他
And one day he had a daughter
直到某天他有了女儿
Who taught him what it takes to raise her right
才懂得何为养育的责任
Oh and nothing ever came for free for this oh so simple man
这个淳朴的人啊 从不奢求不劳而获
He worked for every dollar and he paid for every can
他辛勤赚取每一分钱 为每罐啤酒买单
It was an honest life for an honest man
诚实的人生 属于这位正直的人
Let's go back to Sorrento oh let's go back to the beach

And as the time moves on old Sorrento turned to Rye

He still read the morning paper and bet on horses every night

Now his kids got kids of their own
