My daddy told me about the old glory days My daddy told me about the old glory days Meu pai falou sobre os velhos dias gloriosos But I made up my mind about Daddy's ways But I made up my mind about Daddy's ways mas eu fiz minha cabeça sobre a maneira dele We followed King to Atlanta and got the slaves all free We followed King to Atlanta and got the slaves all free Seguimos o Rei até Atlanta e libertamos todos os escrevos And the ladies come out from behind the fans of gentry And the ladies come out from behind the fans of gentry E as senhoras vêm de trás os fãs de nobreza America America América America America América How you've broken free How you've broken free América America America América America America América Was your destiny Was your destiny Era seu destino I was at Daddy's bedside the night that he went I was at Daddy's bedside the night that he went Eu estava na cabeceira do papai a noite em que ele foi He whispered real sad "the south won't rise again" He whispered real sad "the south won't rise again" Ele sussurrou real triste "o sul não vai subir novamente" They've all gone to Chicago to lose the slow accent They've all gone to Chicago to lose the slow accent Todos eles foram para Chicago para perder o sotaque lento Leaving me behind wondering where we went Leaving me behind wondering where we went Deixando-me por trás perguntando onde fomos America America América America America América Are you losing your mind Are you losing your mind Está perdendo a cabeça America America América America America América
