Send 'Er Down Hughie! - Slim Dusty
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Oh the radio tells me it's raining
收音机告诉我正在下雨
But that I can see for myself
但这我早已亲眼所见
And they tell me a cyclone is coming
他们还说飓风即将来临
Oh I surely could do with some help
我确实需要一些帮助
This little old shovel I'm holding
我手中这把小铲子
Looks puney beside this big Mac
在这辆大卡车旁显得如此渺小
She's down to the diff and still going
它已陷入泥中却仍在前进
And there's only more mud up the track
而前方的路只有更多泥泞
Oh I've reved and I've rocked and reversed it
我踩油门,前后摇晃,倒车尝试
Oh I've dug at the mud on the wheels
我挖开车轮下的泥泞
I've kicked and I've swore and I've cursed it
我踢打、咒骂、怒斥这一切
And to the good Lord I've appealed
并向仁慈的主祈祷
But the line up to heaven ain't open
但通往天堂的热线并未接通
I've a feeling I'm not getting through
我感觉我的祈祷未被听见
Oh I'll just have to lighten the load
看来我只能减轻货物重量了
One carton of stubies should do
一箱啤酒应该就够了
Oh I wonder if ever they'd miss it
我在想他们是否会注意到
One carton from all of those tons
从这成千上万吨货物中少了一箱
But I'll bet you they'd be asking where is it
但我敢打赌他们会问它去哪儿了
And licking their dry dusty tongues
舔着他们干燥的舌头
Oh I can picture those miners all dying
我能想象那些矿工们渴死的场景
Of thirst in that drought stricken town
在那干旱肆虐的小镇里
While here in the mud I've been trying
而我在这泥泞中挣扎
Striving to put the booze down
努力把酒放下
And in each of these stubbies I empty
每当我喝完这些酒瓶
I insert a small note of distress
我都会塞进一张求救的小纸条
And cast it adrift in the gully
然后把它扔进沟渠里
An S O S out of the west
从西边发出一个求救信号
How many days have I languished
我已经在这片沼泽般的路上
Here in this swamp called a road
挣扎了多少个日夜
While in my dispair and my anguish
在绝望和痛苦中
I've been working at lighting the load
我一直在努力减轻车上的负担
Perhaps some old fisherman casting
或许有些老渔夫正在垂钓
His line on the Barrier Reef
在大堡礁上抛下鱼线
Will see all these stubbies go past him
会看到这些啤酒罐漂过
And come sailing up to my relief
然后驶来解救我的困境
And won't we all have such a booze up
我们都会痛饮一番
The best ever seen on this road
这条路上从未见过的盛况
But I doubt if they ever will choose us
但我怀疑他们是否会选择我们
To carry their next flaming load
来承载他们下一次的炽热重担
So good health to the sand flies and skeeters
愿沙蝇和蚊子都健康无恙
Good luck to that solmen old frog
祝那只庄严的老青蛙好运
Oh I'm d**ned if this rain's going to beat us
哦,我绝不会让这场雨打败我们
Thank hell for this truck load of grog
感谢这卡车上的美酒
Oh send her down Huey you beauty
哦,雨神啊,你真是美丽
You got the right knack of doing it now
你现在做得正对
All my sorrows have drowned well and truly
我所有的悲伤都已彻底淹没
And there's plenty more booze to put down
还有更多的酒可以畅饮
Ah ah
Oh it's lomesome I went to ride drowned it
哦 孤独的我试图驾车逃离困境
This stopping
这停顿
Stopping that craft
停住那技艺
Knack of doing
做事的方法
Now la la la la la
