Downtown L.A. - J.J. Cale
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Downtown L.A. is a depressing place
洛杉矶市中心令人窒息绝望
You can see young men
随处可见那些年轻人
With deep lines in their face
脸上刻满沧桑印记
They could all be something
他们本可以成就非凡
If somebody cared
若有人愿意施以援手
But nobody knows
但无人知晓
They're even down there
他们正深陷泥潭
Old woman walking with
老妇人蹒跚而行
A sack on her back
背负着破旧麻袋
Picking up the garbage
捡拾着人们丢弃的垃圾
People put out back
在屋后巷弄徘徊
Men down there trying to walk the line
男人们挣扎求生
Trading their soul for a bottle of wine
为瓶劣酒出卖灵魂
In the inner city it ain't no good
贫民窟里没有希望
It's a long, long way from Hollywood
与纸醉金迷的好莱坞天差地别
Bad kind of people
那些恶徒横行街头
Got a hold of the street
牢牢掌控着这片街区
They got something that
他们手里攥着
The poor people need
穷人们渴求的东西
At two in the morning they bust your head
凌晨两点他们会敲碎你的脑袋
Fat chance walking you'll end up dead
想活着走过这里简直是痴心妄想
It' the law of the jungle
这就是丛林法则
With a gun and a knife
枪与刀主宰的世界
If you stay long enough you lose your life
若在此久留 生命终将消逝
Man down there he couldn't be lying
倒下的那人 绝非虚言
He was sleeping in the street
他曾露宿街头
And he couldn't keep from crying
泪水无法抑制
Said he'd been there for twenty one years
他说已在此挣扎二十一年
Through the bars and the brawls
历经铁窗与斗殴
And the blues and the tears
浸透蓝调与血泪
Prop up the front the back falls down
前门刚撑起 后墙又坍塌
All around the canyons of L.A. town
洛杉矶峡谷 处处皆荒凉
When he asked me for a dollar
当他向我讨要一美元
I looked him in his face
我直视他沧桑的脸庞
Downtown L.A. is a depressing place
洛杉矶市中心令人窒息绝望
