老张的歌

想和我成为朋友吗？
天还没亮 路灯还是明亮
老张推着车子出现在路旁
寒风中他缩着肩膀
孤独把他的身影越拉越长
老张说他要回去故乡
娶他那个还没过门的新娘
泛黄的照片 朦胧的眼光
老张已想不起她的模样
少小离家 说要出去闯闯
不到成功那天绝不回故乡
现在的老张 视茫茫 发苍苍
这里的一切都不如我的想象
这里碰不是我追寻的天堂
我真的累 我什么都不想
带我回去吧 带我回去吧
我闻到故乡泥土的芬芬
带我回去吧 带我回去吧
我听见母亲呼唤儿回故乡
你也很喜欢小齐吗？
小齐家族群号1048883
少小离家 说要出去闯闯
不到成功那天绝不回故乡
现在的老张 视茫茫 发苍苍
这里的一切都不如我的想象
这里碰不是我追寻的天堂
我真的累 我什么都不想
带我回去吧 带我回去吧
我闻到故乡泥土的芬芬
带我回去吧 带我回去吧
我听见母亲呼唤儿回故乡
天渐渐亮 街上人来人往
独不见老张出现在路旁
没有谁会停下脚步来想一想
老张是不是已回故乡
老张他真的已回故乡

Old Zhang's Song

Do you want to be friends with me?
The sky is not yet bright and the streetlights are still bright
Old Zhang pushes his bike, appearing on the side of the road
In the cold wind, he curls up his shoulders
Loneliness makes his figure stretch longer and longer
Old Zhang says he is going to return to his hometown
To marry his new bride who has not yet crossed the threshold
Yellowed photos, blurry eyes
Old Zhang can no longer remember what she looks like
Left home at a young age, said he was going out to闯闖
Must not return home until he is successful
The current Old Zhang has dim eyes and gray hair
Everything here is not like what I imagined
This is not the paradise I was looking for
I'm really tired, I don't want anything
Take me home, take me home
I smell the fragrance of my hometown's soil
Take me home, take me home
I hear my mother calling me to return home
Do you also like Xiao Qi?
Xiao Qi family group number 1048883
Left home at a young age, said he was going out to闯闖
Must not return home until he is successful
The current Old Zhang has dim eyes and gray hair
Everything here is not like what I imagined
This is not the paradise I was looking for
I'm really tired, I don't want anything
Take me home, take me home
I smell the fragrance of my hometown's soil
Take me home, take me home
I hear my mother calling me to return home
The sky is gradually getting brighter, people are coming and going on the street
Old Zhang has disappeared from the side of the road
No one will stop to think
Has Old Zhang returned to his hometown?
Old Zhang has really returned to his hometown
