Lyrics by:Townes Van Zandt
Composed by:Townes Van Zandt
Sometimes I don't know where
有时我不知身在何方
This stony road is taking me
这条荆棘路将带我前往何处
Sometimes I don't know the reason why
有时我不明其中缘由
So I guess I'll keep gambling
只能继续这场豪赌
Lots of booze and lots of rambling
借酒消愁 四处漂泊
Well it's easier than just waiting around to die
总好过坐以待毙
Well one time friends
曾经我也有挚友
I had a ma I even had a pa
有过母亲 甚至父亲
He beat her with a belt once 'cause she cried
他曾用皮带抽打哭泣的她
She told him to take care of me
她嘱托他要好好照顾我
And headed down to Tennessee
自己却独自前往田纳西
Well it's easier than just waiting around to die
总好过坐以待毙
Then I became of age
当我长大成人时
And I found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
在图斯卡卢萨酒吧遇见她
She cleaned me out and she hit it on the sly
她榨干我积蓄又暗中背叛
Well I tried to kill the pain
我试图扼杀这痛楚
I bought some wine I hopped a train
我买了些酒 跳上列车
Well it was easier than just waiting around to die
这比坐等死亡来得容易些
Then a friend said he knew
后来有个朋友说他知道
Where some easy money was
哪里能轻松搞到钱
We robbed a man and brother did we fly
我们抢劫了一个人 然后拼命逃跑
But the posse caught up with me
但追捕队抓住了我
And ******* me back to Muskogee
把我押回马斯克吉
And now it's two long years just waiting around to die
如今两年漫长等待 只为迎接死亡
