Allentown Lyrics – Billy Joel
Singer: Billy Joel
Title: Allentown
Well we’re living here in Allentown
And they’re closing all the factories down
Out in Bethlehem they’re killing time
Filling out forms
Standing in line
Well our fathers fought the Second World War
Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore
Met our mothers in the USO
Asked them to dance
Danced with them slow
And we’re living here in Allentown
But the restlessness was handed down
And it’s getting very hard to stay
Well we’re waiting here in Allentown
For the Pennsylvania we never found
For the promises our teachers gave
If we worked hard
If we behaved
So the graduations hang on the wall
But they never really helped us at all
No they never taught us what was real
Iron and coke
And chromium steel
And we’re waiting here in Allentown
But they’ve taken all the coal from the ground
And the union people crawled away
Every child had a pretty good shot
To get at least as far as their old man got
But something happened on the way to that place
They threw an American flag in our face
Well I’m living here in Allentown
And it’s hard to keep a good man down
But I won’t be getting up today
And we’re living here in Allentown

Allentown – Terjemahan / Translation
Nah kita tinggal di sini di Allentown
Dan mereka menutup semua pabrik turun
Di Bethlehem mereka membunuh waktu
Mengisi formulir
Berbaris
Nah nenek moyang kita berjuang Perang Dunia Kedua
Menghabiskan akhir pekan mereka di Jersey Shore
Bertemu ibu kita di USO
Meminta mereka untuk menari
Menari dengan mereka lambat
Dan kami tinggal di sini di Allentown
Tapi kegelisahan yang dijatuhkan
Dan itu semakin sangat sulit untuk tinggal
Nah kami menunggu di sini di Allentown
Untuk Pennsylvania kita tidak pernah menemukan
Untuk janji-janji guru kami memberi
Jika kita bekerja keras
Jika kita berperilaku
Jadi wisuda menggantung di dinding
Tapi mereka tidak pernah benar-benar membantu kami sama sekali
Tidak mereka tidak pernah mengajarkan kita apa yang nyata
Besi dan kokas
Dan baja kromium
Dan kami menunggu di sini di Allentown
Tapi mereka telah mengambil semua batubara dari tanah
Dan orang-orang serikat merangkak
Setiap anak memiliki tembakan yang cukup baik
Untuk mendapatkan setidaknya sejauh orang tua mereka mendapat
Tapi sesuatu terjadi dalam perjalanan ke tempat itu
Mereka melemparkan bendera Amerika di wajah kita
Yah aku tinggal di sini di Allentown
Dan sulit untuk menjaga baik pria turun
Tapi aku tidak akan bangun hari ini
Dan kami tinggal di sini di Allentown
