Oh Billy Dee was seventeen when he turned twenty-one
比利·迪十七岁时 却已活得像二十一
Fooling with some foolish things he could've left alone
沉溺荒唐事 本可抽身远离
But he had to try to satisfy a thirst he couldn't name
偏要填补 无名渴望的深渊
Driven toward the darkness by the devils in his veins
血脉里的恶魔 推他坠入黑暗
All around the honky-tonks searching for a sign
辗转各色酒馆 寻觅人生答案
Getting by on getting high on women words and wine
靠女人 酒精与谎言 麻痹度日
Some folks called him crazy lord and others called him free
有人说他疯癫 有人说他自在
We just called us lucky for the love of Billy Dee
我们只庆幸 曾拥有比利·迪的爱
Busy goin' his own way and speakin' his own words
我行我素 言由心生
Facin' and forgettin' every warnin' that he heard
将警告抛诸脑后 置之不理
Makin' friends and takin' any crazy chance he could
广结良缘 抓住每个疯狂机遇
Getting busted for the bad times and believin' in the good
历经磨难 仍心怀美好期许
Billy took a beatin' from a world he meant no harm
比利遭受着世界的无情打击
The score was written in the scars upon his arm
伤痕累累的手臂诉说着遭遇
Some felt he was payin' for the life he tried to lead
有人说这是他自食其果
But all we felt was sorry for our good friend Billy Dee
而我们只为挚友比利感到痛惜
It may be his soul was bigger than a body's ought to be
也许他的灵魂太过宏大 凡人之躯难以承载
Singing songs and bringin' laughter to the likes of you and me
用歌声与欢笑 温暖你我这样的平凡人
'Cause the world he saw was sadder than the one he hoped to find
因他眼中的世界 比向往的更显苍凉
But it wasn't near as lonesome as the one he left behind
却远不及 他逃离的那个故乡孤寂
Yesterday they found him on the floor of his hotel
昨日人们在酒店房间 发现他倒卧在地
Reachin' toward the needle lord that drove him down to hell
手臂仍伸向 那将他拖入地狱的针剂
Some said it was suicide others blame the speed
有人说是自我了断 有人归咎于药剂
We just called it crucified when Billy Dee OD'd
我们只说比利·迪 是被现实钉上了十字架
