So many mouths to feed on the farm
农场里那么多张嘴要喂饱
Sonny was the second to the last one born
桑尼是倒数第二个出生的孩子
His mamma ran away and his daddy beat him bad
母亲离家出走 父亲对他拳脚相加
And he grew up wild good love he never had
他在缺爱的环境中野蛮生长
He had a left like Henry's hammer
他的左拳如亨利之锤般凌厉
A right like Betty Bamalam
右拳似贝蒂重炮般凶猛
Rode with the muggers in the dark and dread
曾在黑暗恐惧中与暴徒为伍
And all them sluggers went down like lead
所有对手都如铅块般被他击倒
Well he hung with the hoods he wouldn't stroke the fans
他与混混为伍 不屑讨好观众
But he had dynamite in both his hands
但双拳却蕴藏雷霆万钧
Boom bam like the slammer door
重击如牢门轰然关闭
The bell and the can and the bodies on the floor
钟声与铁罐 遍地横陈的身躯
Beware
当心
The bear's in town
猛兽已入城
Somebody's money says
有人押注赌咒
The bear's going down
这头猛兽必将倒下
Yeah
没错
The bear never smiles
那头熊从不展露笑颜
Sonny's going down for miles and miles
桑尼正坠入无尽深渊
Sonny's going down for miles and miles
桑尼正坠入无尽深渊
Yeah
没错
The writers didn't like him the fight game jocks
那些作家和拳坛老手都看他不顺眼
With his lowlife backers and his hands like rocks
带着底层支持者和岩石般的铁拳
They didn't want to have a bogey man
他们不愿接受这个"恶魔"的存在
They didn't like him and he didn't like them
他们不待见他 他也看不上他们
Black Cadillac

Alligator boots
鳄鱼皮靴
Money in the pockets of his sharkskin suits
鲨鱼皮西装里塞满钞票
Some say

The bear took a flop
这头熊轰然倒下
They couldn't believe it when they saw him drop
众人瞠目结舌看他坠落
He had a left like Henry's hammer
他的左拳如亨利之锤般凌厉
A right like Betty Bamalam
右拳似贝蒂重炮般凶猛
Rode with the muggers in the dark and dread
曾在黑暗恐惧中与暴徒为伍
And all them sluggers went down like lead
所有对手都如铅块般被他击倒
Joe louis was his hero he tried to be the same
乔·路易斯是他的英雄 他竭力效仿
But a criminal child wears a ball and chain
但罪恶的童年戴着镣铐生长
So the civil rights people didn't want him on the throne
民权人士不愿看他登上王座
And the hacks and the cops wouldn't leave him alone
权贵与警察始终对他穷追不舍
Beware

Sonny's going down for miles and miles

Oh yeah

At the foot of his bed with his feet on the floor
床尾处 他双脚垂落地面
There was d**e in his veins and a pistol on the drawer
血管里流淌着* 抽屉里放着枪
There was no investigation as such
没有人对此展开调查
He hated needles but he knew too much
他厌恶针头却知晓太多秘密
Criss

Crossed
交错
On his back
烙印在他背上
Scars from his daddy like slavery tracks
父亲留下的伤痕如奴隶的烙印
The second last child was the second last king

Never again was it the same in the ring
拳台之上 辉煌再难重现
He had a left like Henry's hammer
他的左拳如亨利之锤般凌厉
A right like Betty Bamalam
右拳似贝蒂重炮般凶猛
Rode with the muggers
与暴徒为伍穿行黑夜
In the dark and dread
在恐惧阴影下苟活
And all them sluggers went down like lead

They never could be sure about the day he was born

A motherless child set to working on the farm

And they never could be sure about the day he died
