State of Arkansas - The Weavers
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Written By：The Weavers
My name is Charlie Brennan from Charleston I come
我名查理·布伦南 来自查尔斯顿城
I've traveled this wide world over some ups and downs I've had
漂泊四海历沧桑 浮沉起落皆尝尽
I've traveled this wide world over some ups and downs I've saw
踏遍人间万里路 见过兴衰百般景
But I never really knew what misery was till I hit old Arkansas
未识苦难真面目 直到踏入阿肯色
Got off the train in Little rock in the middle of winter
隆冬时节小石城 孤身下火车
Nobody there to extend to me his paw
无人伸手相帮扶
Or bid me welcome to this State of Arkansas
更无问候迎我至阿肯色州土
And it was cold
寒风刺骨
I dodged behind the depot to dodge that blizzard wind
我躲在车站后 躲避暴风雪的凛冽
I met a walking skeleton he said his name was Thomas Quinn
遇见一个形销骨立的人 自称托马斯·奎因
Well his hair hung down in rat-tails on his lean and lantern jaw
他发如鼠尾垂落 瘦削的脸颊凹陷
He invited me to his hotel he said it was the best in Arkansas
邀我去他的旅店 说是阿肯色最上等的住所
I followed my conductor to his respective place
跟随这位引路人 来到他所谓的家
Where pity and starvation were to be seen on every face
每张脸上都刻着 怜悯与饥饿的痕迹
Well his bread it was corn dodger and his meat I could not chaw
他的面包粗粝难咽 肉块硬得嚼不动
But he charged me a half a dollar in the State of Arkansas
但在阿肯色州他竟收我半块钱
And I went out and got me a job on a farm farming
后来我在农场找了份耕作活计
But I didn't care for the work or the farmer
可我厌恶这差事 也讨厌那农场主
Or his wife and none of his children
连同他妻儿都看不顺眼
So I went up to him one day and I said
有天我上前对他说
Mister I'm gonna quit this job and you can just pay me off right now
先生我要辞职 你现在就结清工钱吧
He says Okay son if that's the way you feel about it
他说好吧小子 既然你这么想
And he took me out in the barn and he handed me a mink skin
便带我进谷仓 递来一张貂皮
I said I don't want this thing I want my money
我说我不要这玩意儿 我要我的工钱
For the work I've done
为我付出的劳动
He said Son you may not know it but mink's skin is
他说小子你或许不知道 如今这地界
What we're using for currency down here now
水貂皮就是流通的货币
So I took it when into town hunted up a place
于是我揣着它进城 寻了处地方
Put my mink skin up on the counter and turned
把貂皮往柜台上一拍 转身要走
If the bartender didn't toss me a pint
酒保却只甩给我一品脱酒
And he picked up my mink skin blowed the hair back on it
他拎起我的貂皮 吹开上面的浮毛
Put it under the counter fetched me out fourteen rabbit skins and
他把貂皮藏进柜台 却只给我十四张兔皮
Three possum hives for change
外加三个负鼠窝当零钱
I'm going to the Indian territory and live outside the law
我要去印第安领地 逍遥法外度余生
I'll bid farewell to the kin bricks in the State of Arkansas
向阿肯色州的砖墙亲人挥手告别
If you ever see me back again I'll give to you my paw
若你再见我归来 我愿与你握手言和
But it'll be though a telescope from Hell to Arkansas
但那得隔着地狱到阿肯色的望远镜
