On a warm summer's evenin'
在一个温暖的夏夜
On a train bound for nowhere
火车驶向未知的远方
I met up with the gambler
我遇见了一位赌徒
We were both too tired to sleep
我们都疲惫得无法入眠
So we took turns a starin'
于是轮流凝视窗外
Out the window at the darkness
望着无边的黑暗
Till boredom overtook us and he began to speak
直到厌倦袭来 他开始诉说
He said
他说
Son I've made a life
孩子 我这一生
Out of readin' people's faces
都在解读人们的表情
And knowin' what their cards
通过眼神的细微变化
Were by the way they held their eyes
就能看透他们手中的牌
So if you don't mind my sayin'
所以恕我直言
I can see you're out of aces
我看你已无王牌可出
For a taste of your whiskey
用你一口威士忌
I'll give you some advice
换我几句忠告
So I handed him my bottle
我将酒瓶递到他手中
And he drank down my last swallow
他仰头饮尽最后一滴
Then he bummed a cigarette
又讨了支香烟
And asked me for a light
问我借个火
And the night got deathly quiet
夜色骤然沉寂
And his face lost all expression
他面容凝成冰霜
Said If you're gonna play the game
说道若想赌这一局
Boy you gotta learn to play it right
小子就得懂规矩
You got to know when to hold them
你要懂得何时紧握不放
Know when to fold them
也要明白何时弃牌投降
Know when to walk away
懂得何时该转身离场
And know when to run
更要知道何时该逃亡
You never count your money
千万别在牌桌上数钱
When you're sittin' at the table
当你还坐在赌局中央
There'll be time enough for countin'
算账的时机总会来到
When the dealing's done
待到这局终了再清账
Every gambler knows
每个赌徒都明白
That the secret to survivin'

Is knowin' what to throw away
懂得何时该舍弃
And knowing what to keep

'Cause every hand's a winner
因为每手牌都可能是赢家
And every hand's a loser
每手牌也都可能是输家
And the best that you can hope
而你能期待的最好结局
For is to die in your sleep
就是在睡梦中安然离世
And when he finished speakin'
当他说完最后的话语
He turned back towards the window
转身望向窗外风景
Crushed out his cigarette
掐灭了手中香烟
And faded off to sleep
渐渐沉入梦境
And somewhere in the darkness the gambler
在某个黑暗的角落里
He broke even
这位赌徒不输不赢
But in his final words
但他临终的箴言
I found an ace that I could keep
