英文乡村歌曲：Steel Magnolia - Rainbow

I got¹ a pink slip² today
It's time for rent³ but I can't pay⁴
My car broke⁵ down on the interstate
They passed me by 'cause⁶ they won't wait
And oh, all I can think of is you
And oh, well I know what I'm gonna do
And that is...

Get up, get up, get up
I've got to let it go
Get out, get out
You've got to let all know
How you feel when you feel like you do
Got to have faith⁷ when you know that it's true⁸
Get up, get up, get up, get up because...
Somewhere⁹ over the rainbow is you
Over the rainbow

Time for everything under the sun
A time to cry and a time for fun
A time to hold back and a time to run
But I know there's someone¹⁰ for everyone
And oh, all I can think of is you
And oh, don't care¹¹ what life¹² puts me through

I'm gonna get up, get up, get up
I've got to let it go
Get out, get out
You got to let all know
How you feel when you feel like you do
Got to have faith when you know that it's true
Get up, get up, get up, get up because..
Somewhere over the rainbow is you
Over the rainbow

Over the rainbow

Oh, so what if it's rainy and cold?
Oh, when I'm holding my part¹³ of gold
And oh, we all have pain¹⁴
But oh, the sun always shines¹⁵ in the rain, so I

Get up, get up, get up
I've got to let it go
Get out, get out
You got to let all know

Get up, get up, get up
I've got to let it go
Get out, get out
You've got to let it show
How you feel when you feel like you do
Got to have faith when you know that it's true
Get up, get up, get up, get up because..
Somewhere over the rainbow is you
Over the rainbow
Somewhere over the rainbow is you
Over the rainbow

You got to let it go
You got to let it go
Over the rainbow is you.
