The Biggest Disappointment - Slim Dusty

Written by:Joy McKean
They had my future wrapped up in a parcel
他们将我的未来打包成既定轨迹
And no one even thought of asking me
却无人想过询问我的意愿
The day I turned fifteen I caught the mail train
十五岁那天我跳上邮政列车
To find what else might be in life for me
去寻找生命中其他可能
I rode on trucks and trains and lived on nothing
搭货车啃硬面包潦倒度日
Served me right for wanting to be free
追求自由的代价我甘之如饴
Ah well that's the way society looked at it
世人摇头叹我离经叛道
But it didn't seem to be that way to me
但我的眼中天地本不该是这样
And the biggest disappointment in the family was me
我是家族最大的耻辱印记
The only twisted branch upon our good old family tree
古老家谱上唯一扭曲的枝桠
I just couldn't be the person they expected me to be
终究没能活成他们期待的模样
And the biggest disappointment in the world was me
我是这世界最失败的造物
A lot more dinner times than there were dinners
空荡餐桌比食物更常出现
I learned a lot that hurt me at the time
那些伤痛教会我成长
Then this quiet country boy went home a different man
当安静的乡下男孩归来时
With a memory of distance on my mind
眼底已烙着远方的模样
But I always spoke too loud and laughed too often
我总是说话太大声 笑得太过张扬
Maybe drank to many glasses down
或许也曾借酒消愁 饮尽杯中惆怅
And perhaps my clothes were older than I realized
身上旧衣褴褛 竟比想象中更显沧桑
A relief to all concerned when I left town
当我离开小镇 所有人都松了口气如释重负
And the biggest disappointment in the family was me
我是家族最大的耻辱印记
The only twisted branch upon our good old family tree
古老家谱上唯一扭曲的枝桠
I just couldn't be the person they expected me to be
终究没能活成他们期待的模样
And the biggest disappointment in the world was me
我是这世界最失败的造物
And the biggest disappointment in the family was me
我是家族最大的耻辱印记
The only twisted branch upon our good old family tree
古老家谱上唯一扭曲的枝桠
I just couldn't be the person they expected me to be
终究没能活成他们期待的模样
And the biggest disappointment in the world was me
我是这世界最失败的造物
