Bird On A Wire - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)
Like a bird on a wire Like a drunk in a midnight choir
像一只落在电线上的鸟儿 像一个午夜唱诗班的醉汉
I have tried in my way to be free Like a fish on a hook
我想方设法用自己的方式去寻找自由 像一只在钩子上缓缓爬行的虫儿
Like a knight in some old fashioned book
像一位古代流行读本里的骑士
I have saved all my ribbons with thee
我为你保存着所有的丝带
And if I if I have been unkind
如果我有些刻薄
I just hope you will let it go by
希望你能把它忘掉
And if I if I have been untrue I hope you know it was never to you
如果我有些不够真诚 希望你明了那不是对你
Like a baby stillborn Like a beast with his horn
像一个夭折的婴孩 像一头有尖角的野兽
I have torn everyone who reached out for me
我已赶走那些垂涎我的人
But I swear by this song
但我用此歌
And by all that I have done wrong
也用我所有做错的事来表明心迹
I'll make it all up to you
我会弥补这一切
I saw a youngman leaning on his wooden crutch
我遇见一个乞丐斜倚着木拐
He called out to me Don't ask for so much
他对我说 你绝不可以要那么多
And a youngwoman leaning in her darkened door
又见一位可人的女士斜倚着深黑的门
She cried out to me
她喊住我
Why not ask for more
嗨 为什么不再多要些
Like a bird on a wire
像一只落在电线上的鸟儿
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
像一个午夜唱诗班的醉汉
I have tried in my way to be free
我想方设法用自己的方式去寻找自由
