We people who are darker than blue
我们这些比蓝色更深沉的人
Don't let us stand around this town
别让我们在这座城市里徘徊
And let what others say come true
让别人的偏见成为现实
We're just good for nothing
他们总认为我们一无是处
They all figure

A boyish grown up shiftless jigger
说我们是长不大的无用之徒
Now we can't hardly stand for that
现在我们再也无法忍受
Or is that really where it's at
