30,000 Pounds Of Bananas - Harry Chapin
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
It was just after dark
夜幕刚刚降临
When the truck started down
卡车开始驶下
The hill that leads into
通往宾州斯克兰顿的
Scranton Pennsylvania
陡峭山坡
Carrying 30 000 pounds of bananas
载着三万磅香蕉
Carrying 30 000 pounds hit it Big John
三万磅重负 冲啊 大个子约翰
Of bananas
满车香蕉
He was a young driver
他是个年轻司机
Just out on his second job
刚接下第二份工作
And he was carrying the next day's pasty fruits
载着次日的新鲜水果
For everyone in that coal-scarred city
送往那座煤灰弥漫的城市
When children play without despair
当孩子们无忧无虑玩耍
In backyard slagpiles
在矿渣堆砌的后院
And folks manage to eat each day
当人们勉强维持每日温饱
About 30 000 pounds of bananas
整整三万磅香蕉啊
Yes just about 30 000 pounds scream it again John
没错 整整三万磅 约翰 再喊一遍
Of bananas
满车香蕉
He passed a sign that he should have seen
他错过了本该注意的警示牌
Saying "Shift to low gear
上面写着"换低速档"
A fifty dollar fine my friend "
"否则罚款五十美元 伙计"
He was thinking perhaps about the warm-breathed woman
他或许正想着那位温婉的女子
Who was waiting at the journey's end
她正在旅程终点等候
He started down the two mile drop
他开始驶入两英里长的下坡
The curving road that wound from the top of the hill
蜿蜒山路从山顶盘旋而下
He was pushing on through the shortening miles
他驱车穿越渐短的里程
That ran down to the depot
朝着终点站飞驰
Just a few more miles to go
仅剩最后几英里路程
Then he'd go home and have her ease his long cramped day away
就能回家让她抚慰整日疲惫
From the smell of 30 000 pounds of bananas
三万吨香蕉的气味弥漫
Yes the smell of 30 000 pounds of bananas
是啊 三万吨香蕉的气味弥漫
He was picking up speed as the city spread
随着城市灯火在脚下铺展
Its twinkling lights below him
他的车速越来越快
But he paid no heed as the shivering thoughts
但颤抖的念头掠过时 他全然未觉
Of the night's delights went through him
夜色欢愉仍在血液里流淌
His foot nursed the brakes to slow him down
他轻点刹车试图减速
But the pedal floored easy without a sound
踏板却无声陷落毫无阻力
He said "Christ "
他喊出"天啊"
It was funny how he named
多讽刺啊此刻他呼唤的
The only man who could save him now
竟是唯一能救赎他的圣名
He was trapped inside a dead-end hellslide
困在失控的死亡滑坡里
Riding on his fear-hunched back
恐惧压弯了他的脊背
Was every one of those yellow-green
车斗满载青黄香蕉
I'm tellin' you 30 000 pounds of bananas
听我说 整整三万磅香蕉啊
Yes there were 30 000 pounds of bananas
没错 足足三万磅香蕉
He barely made the sweeping curve
险险擦过急转弯道
That led into the steepest grade
冲进陡峭的下坡路
And he missed the thankful passing bus
与感恩巴士擦肩而过
At ninety miles an hour
以九十英里的时速
And he said "God make it a dream "
他祈求道 "上帝啊 让这只是一场梦"
As he rode his last rack down
当他的卡车失控坠落
He said "God make it a dream "
他喃喃 "上帝啊 让这只是一场梦"
As he rode his last rack down
当他的卡车失控坠落
And he sideswiped nineteen neat parked cars
车身横扫十九辆整齐停放的汽车
Clipped off thirteen telephone poles
撞断了十三根电话线杆
Hit two houses bruised eight trees
冲撞两栋房屋 擦伤八棵大树
And Blue Crossed seven people
七名路人被卷入这场灾厄
It was then he lost his head
就在那时他慌了神
Not to mention an arm or two before he stopped
还没等车停下 就丢了几条胳膊
And he smeared for four hundred yards
车身在山坡上拖行了四百码
Along the hill that leads into Scranton Pennsylvania
沿着通往宾州斯克兰顿的山路
Almost 30 000 pounds
近三万磅重的
Of bananas
香蕉啊
You know the man who told me about it on the bus
你知道吗 是公交车上的人告诉我这事
As it went up the hill out of Scranton Pennsylvania
当时车正驶离宾州斯克兰顿的山坡
He shrugged his shoulders He shook his head
他耸了耸肩 摇了摇头
And he said and this is exactly what he said
然后开口 说出了这样一番话
"Boy it sure must have been something
"孩子 那场面可真够震撼
Just imagine 30 000 pounds of bananas
想象下 整整三万磅香蕉啊
Yes there were 30 000 pounds
没错 足足有三万磅
Of mashed bananas "
碾成泥的香蕉"
Of bananas

Just bananas

Of bananas

Not no driver now
司机已不在场
