She's been out in that kitchen all mornin' now

'Cause tomorrow is Christmas Eve

因为明天就是平安夜了

Now I ain't had the heart to show her some how

These letters I hate for her to read

Yesterday mornin' I went after the mail

I always bring it back to her to open

我总是拿回来让她打开

But for some reason though I read Johnny's letter

不知何故我读了Johnny的信

And he ain't comin' home like we was hopin'

他没有像我们希望的那样回家

With him bein' the yougest in his first year away

在他离开的第一年里他是最年轻的

I knowed it was gonna hurt her some

我知道这会让她伤心

So I didn't tell her right then thought I'd wait till today

所以我没有告诉她我以为我会等到今天

Till after the mail had run

直到邮件发完

Then this mornn' there was letter from both the girls

今天早上两个姑娘都来信了

Now they wouldn't be writtin' if they was comin' home

现在如果他们要回家他们就不会写信了

So I opened them up and sure enough

于是我打开一看果然

They got around to it 'fore long

他们很快就会动手

Dear mom and dad please understand

Well it hurts me so much to say

这句话让我好伤心

I won't be there the way I planned

No I won't be home Christmas Day

圣诞节我不会回家

Now they all three got their reasons

现在他们三个都有自己的理由

And each one believes the other two will be comin' home

每个人都相信另两个人会回家

And I know they'd find a way to be here Christmas Eve

我知道他们会想方设法来到这里共度平安夜

If they knowed we was goin' to be alone

如果他们知道我们会孤身一人

So she's out in that kitchen gettin' thing ready

她在厨房里准备好东西

For a family that won't be here

And in a little while now she'll read these letter

And each one will bring a tear

Dear mom and dad please understand

I won't be here the way I planned
