[00:00.00] 作詞 : Billy Joel
[00:01.00] 作曲 : Billy Joel
[00:24.41]Viktor was born in the spring of '44
[00:32.13]And never saw his father anymore
[00:39.63]A child of sacrifice, a child of war
[00:47.70]Another son who never had a father after Leningrad
[00:59.31]Went off to school and learned to serve the state
[01:06.88]Followed the rules and drank his vodka straight
[01:14.58]The only way to live was drown the hate
[01:22.40]A Russian life was very sad
[01:26.85]And such was life in Leningrad
[01:33.78]I was born in '49
[01:36.78]A cold war kid in McCarthy time
[01:40.54]Stop 'em at the 38th Parallel
[01:44.59]Blast those yellow reds to hell
[01:48.41]And cold war kids were hard to kill
[01:52.39]Under their desk in an air raid drill
[01:56.18]Haven't they heard we won the war
[02:00.02]What do they keep on fighting for?
[02:07.03]Viktor was sent to some Red Army town
[02:14.60]Served out his time, became a circus clown
[02:22.50]The greatest happiness he'd ever found
[02:30.11]Was making Russian children glad
[02:34.70]And children lived in Leningrad
[02:40.99]But children lived in Levittown
[02:44.82]And hid in the shelters underground
[02:48.14]Until the Soviets turned their ships around
[02:52.60]And tore the Cuban missiles down
[02:56.39]And in that bright October sun
[03:00.18]We knew our childhood days were done
[03:03.91]And I watched my friends go off to war
[03:07.81]What do they keep on fighting for?
[03:16.70]And so my child, and I came to this place
[03:24.68]To meet him eye to eye and face to face
[03:32.02]He made my daughter laugh, then we embraced
[03:39.97]We never knew what friends we had
[03:44.50]Until we came to Leningrad
