Art Garfunkel - captain jim’s drunken dream

주인공은 고향인 남쪽의 섬에서 느꼈던 행복을 그리워하며, 타인의 경시 속에서 외로움을 느낀다
Whisky로 인해 고향의 따뜻함을 잊어버렸고, 이제 다시 그 곳을 찾고 싶어 한다
겨울의 찬바람이 불며 고향의 필요성을 더욱 실감하게 된다

Now you country fools in your one horse town you can laugh at me
It's plain as rain that you've never been down to the Southern sea
To see me now is like watching a fish on dry land
I only wish you could see me down in the islands
Mister, that's my home
What a fool I was to leave the only happiness I've known
You see me coming, you wink your eye and call me Captain Jim
And when I don't do nothing but to walk on by
You say babe, get a load of him
All I need is the sea and the sky and I know where I stand
Instead of you hicks straight out of the sticks deciding I ain't a man
You'll never understand
Up here I'm just a whisky bum but down there I'm a king
Sounds just like the angels up in heaven when they sing
Welcome home, welcome home
(Let me hear it) Such a sight to see
Instead of some Salvation Army sister
Singing "Nearer My God To Thee"
Now I know that Yankee whisky has taken away my mind
And I know that rum is the only drink suitable to mankind
And I know that this tree I'm under is shaped entirely wrong
I need to see a gentle palm tree and I won't wait too long
I can feel that it's coming on strong
The first cold wind of winter is flapping in my clothes
Showing me the way with the direction that it blows
