Down In The Track (Lp Version) - The Doobie Brothers
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I been workin' the whole day long
整日辛劳在铁轨旁
On these railroad ties singing a sad sad song
哼着哀歌 声声断肠
Down the track is a bad way to live
前方铁轨延伸向苦难深渊
The boss man's whip is all he's got to give
工头鞭影是唯一的"奖赏"
And late at night in the twilight of the south
南方的暮色笼罩寒夜
They put you in a cell and let the bulldogs out
铁窗内放出了恶犬
The old cat down the way
远处老猫声声呜咽
Well he's singing out the blues
唱着蓝调诉说悲怆
'Cause he's got no one back home
因为他无家可归
Oh somebody sighed
有人叹息着说
Next day comes they send you back out on the track
次日来临 他们又把你赶回铁轨上
All that sweat be drippin' down off your back
汗水顺着你的脊背不停流淌
Everybody's singing a workin' man's song
人人都在唱着劳工的歌谣
Hopin' they don't have to feel the whip on their bone
只求鞭子别抽到自己的骨头上
The water boy slowly works his way around
送水工拖着沉重的步伐
A bucket full of swamp water weighin' him down
一桶浑浊的泥水压弯了他的腰
Old squezer walker just fell out on the ground
老工友踉跄着倒在地上
And they're draggin' his body away
他们正拖走他的身躯
Oh my my my
天啊 我的天
Well there's talk around camp
营地里流传着风声
That there's gonna be a fight
说即将爆发一场斗殴
Old razor face and willie black
刀疤脸和威利·布莱克
The meanest dudes in sight
是这里最凶狠的角色
One's got a razor and the other's got a knife
一人持刀 一人握刃
But only one's gonna walk out alive
唯有一人能活着离开
Oh baby mama get me out of here
亲爱的妈妈 快带我逃离此地
Can't stand no more
我再也无法忍受
This place is gonna be the death of me
这地方终将成为我的葬身之所
Believe to my soul that I gotta be free
我灵魂深处坚信必须获得自由
There's only one way that it's every gonna be
唯有一种方式能终结这一切
That's when the angels come and take me away
那就是天使降临 带我远离苦海
Well now
好吧现在
Yes I baby
是的亲爱的
Oh baby mama get me out of here
亲爱的妈妈 快带我逃离此地
I just can't stand no more
我再也无法忍受
This place is gonna be the death of me
这地方终将成为我的葬身之所
Believe to my soul that I gotta be free
