Written by:Joni Mitchell
The big man arrives
Disco dancers greet him
Plainclothes cops greet him
Small town big man
小镇风云人物
Fresh lipstick glistening
新涂的唇膏闪闪发亮
Sophomore jive
青涩的玩笑话
From victims of typewriters
来自打字机前的受害者们
The band sounds like typewriters
乐队声如打字机敲击
The big man he's not listening
大人物充耳不闻
His eyes hold Edith
目光紧锁埃迪丝
His left hand holds his right
左手紧攥着右手
What does that hand desire
那只手渴望着什么
That he grips it so tight
为何他攥得如此紧
Edith in the ring
埃迪丝站在拳台中央
The passed over girls are conferring
被冷落的姑娘们窃窃私语
The man with the diamond ring is purring
戴钻戒的男人低声嘶吼
All claws for now withdrawn
暂时收起了所有利爪
One by one they bring
他们一个接一个地
His renegade stories to her
向她讲述他叛逆的往事
His crimes and his glories to her
他的罪孽与荣光 都向她倾诉
In challenge they look on
他们四目相对 带着挑衅
Women he has taken
那些他占有过的女人
Grow old too soon
过早地老去
He tilts their tired faces
他轻轻捧起她们疲惫的脸庞
Gently to the spoon
温柔地贴近汤匙
Edith in his bed
埃迪丝躺在他的床上
A plane in the rain is humming
雨中飞机低鸣
The wires in the walls are humming
墙内电线嗡响
Some song some mysterious song
某支神秘歌谣
Bars in her head
在她脑海回荡
Beating frantic and snow blind
狂乱又雪盲
Romantic and snow blind
浪漫又雪盲
She says his crime belongs
她说他的罪属于他
Edith and the kingpin
埃迪丝与那大人物
Each with charm to sway
各自带着蛊惑人心的魅力
Are staring eye to eye
四目相对凝视彼此
They dare not look away
谁都不敢移开视线
You know they dare not look away
你知道他们不敢移开目光
