You'll see pretty browns
你会遇见优雅的棕肤丽人
In beautiful gowns
身着华美长裙款款而行
You'll see tailor mades
有量身定制的精致衣衫
And hand me downs
也有辗转流传的旧时裳
You'll meet honest men
将邂逅诚实的生意人
And pick pockets skilled
更不乏技艺娴熟的扒手
You'll find that business never closes
这里的营生永不打烊
Till somebody gets killed
直到有人命丧黄泉
If Beale Street could talk
若比尔街能开口诉说
If Beale Street could talk
若比尔街能开口诉说
Married men would have to take their beds and walk
已婚男人都得卷铺盖走人
Except one or two
除了一两个例外
Who never drink booze
那些滴酒不沾的人
And the blind man on the corner
还有街角的盲人
Who sings the Beale Street blues
唱着比尔街的忧郁蓝调
He said
他说
I'd rather be here
我宁愿留在这里
Than any place I know
胜过任何熟悉的地方
Yes I'd rather be here
是的 我宁愿留在这里
Than any place I know
胜过任何熟悉的地方
It's gonna take the sergeant
除非警长亲自来
For to make me go
否则我绝不离开
I'm goin' to the river
我要去往河边
Maybe by and by
或许终有一日
Yes I'm goin' to the river
是的 我将奔向那条河
And there's a reason why
这其中自有缘由
Because the river's wet
因河水永远湿润
And Beale Street's done gone dry
而比尔街早已干涸
