High Sheriff of Calhoun Parrish - Tony Joe White
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
It was said of the sheriff to Calhoun Parish
人们都说在卡尔霍恩教区
Not to ever touch his daughter Emily
千万别碰警长的女儿艾米丽
For to look at her with lustful eyes was certain
但凡用欲望的眼神看她一眼
To get you a time in the penitentiary
就等着被送进监狱
It was true she was quite voluptuous
确实 她身材火辣诱人
And it was true she had eyes for me
也确实 她对我暗送秋波
Then one night at a dance she walked up to me
直到某夜舞会上她向我走来
And ask me would I meet her down by the creek
她问我是否愿在小溪边与她相会
As I listened to her dangerous proposal
听着她危险的邀约
I thought about the high sheriff catching me
我想到若被警长逮个正着
As I shook my head and quietly left the party
摇着头默默离开派对
I heard her laugh and say
却听见她笑着嚷道
"You'll be sorry"
"你会后悔的"
Then there came upon my door a loud disturbance
随后我的门前传来喧闹骚动
I opened it to the sheriff and his deputy
我向警长和他的副手敞开心扉
He said "Son did you molest my daughter "
他质问道 "小子 你可曾侵犯我女儿"
I said "Sheriff
我回答 "警长大人
I do not know of what you speak"
我完全不明白您在说什么"
Then he grabbed me roughly by the collar
他粗暴地揪住我的衣领
And he flung me sprawling out into the street
将我狠狠摔在街道上
There were days in the jail with claustrophobia
在幽闭的牢房里度日如年
And all on account of that wench Emily
全都是因为那个祸水艾米丽
Well I finally worked a bar loose from the window
我终于撬开了窗上的铁栏杆
And made my way into the woods of Calhoun
逃进了卡尔霍恩的密林深处
Late that night I came upon a cabin
深夜时分我偶然发现一间木屋
It was the home of Harham Cross a friend I knew
那是我老友哈拉姆·克罗斯的家
Would you all mind if I sat down at your table
能否允许我坐在你们的餐桌旁
'Cause it's been a while since I've had time to eat
毕竟我已许久未能好好吃顿饭
And I'll pay y'all back when I'm able
等我缓过劲来定会报答各位
But right now the high sheriff is after me
但现在警长大人正对我穷追不舍
You see
你知道吗
Ooh
