Now Smackwater Jack
话说斯麦克沃特·杰克
He bought a shotgun
买了把霰弹枪
'Cause he was in the mood
只因他受够了窝囊气
For a little confrontation
想找人干上一仗
He just a let it all hang loose
他彻底豁出去了
He didn't think about the noose
哪还顾得上绞索高悬
He couldn't take no more abuse
再也咽不下这口恶气
So he shot down the congregation
一枪轰翻了整个教堂
You can't talk to a man
你无法与持枪之人讲道理
With a shotgun in his hand
当他手握霰弹枪时
Now Big Jim the chief
治安官大吉姆
Stood for law and order
代表着法律与秩序
He called for the guard to come
他召集警卫队前来
And surround the border
封锁了边境线
Now from his bulldog mouth
从他斗牛犬般的嘴里
As he led the posse south
当他率队南下时
Came the cry we got to ride
警笛响起 我们必须出发
To clean up the streets
去清扫街道
For our wives and our daughters
为了我们的妻女安危
You can't talk to a man
你无法与持枪之人讲道理
When he don't wanna understand
进行理性对话
No no no no no
不 不 绝不
The account of the capture
这场抓捕行动的真相
Wasn't in the papers
从未见诸报端
But you know they hanged ol' Smack right then
但你知道他们当场就绞死了老斯麦克
Instead of later
没有拖延片刻
You know the people were quite pleased
人们都拍手称快
'Cause the outlaw had been seized
因为歹徒终于落网
And on the whole it was a very good year
总的来说那真是个好年头
For the undertaker

You know you know you can't talk to a man
