He was standing by the highway

With a sign that just said mother
举着写有"母亲"的纸牌
When he heard a driver coming
当听见引擎声传来时
About a half a mile away
约在半英里之外
So he held the sign up higher
他将纸牌举得更高
Where no decent soul could miss it
让善良的人们都能看见
It was ten degrees or colder
那天博尔德水坝附近
Down by boulder dam that day
气温低至零下十度
He was raised up in milwaukee
他在密尔沃基长大成人
Though he never was that famous
虽从未声名远扬
He was just a road musician
只是个流浪乐手
To the taverns he would go
辗转于各间酒馆
Singing songs about the ramblin'
吟唱着漂泊之歌
The lovin' girls and gamblin'
那些多情姑娘与赌局
How the world fell on his shoulders

Back in boulder I don't know

And she told him she would take him

For a ride in the morning sun
沐浴在晨光中前行
Back in boulder he had told her

I don't know when I've had a better friend

It was out in arizona

That he heard the lady listening

To each word that he was saying

To each line that he would write

So he sat down at her table

And they talked about the weather
