Good Horses To Ride (Album) - Trent Willmon

Tuck was a cowboy I knew years ago
我很多年前就知道 Tuck是一个牛仔
Could put a stretch in a story like a forty foot row
属于他的传奇多得数不过来
Young an' wide-eyed I believed every word
他拥有一双稚嫩而天真的眼睛 我相信他说的每一句话
As he rambled through the canyons an' stampeded herds
他漫步于峡谷之间 惊吓跑成群的畜牧
Swore there were still Comanches in them breaks to the south:
他坚信这个世界上还有卡曼奇族的存在 并透露给南部的人们
He'd seen good hands ride in there an' never rode out
他曾见过两匹被圈养得很好的马儿 却从未被骑过
He had a horse he called Dollar that twice saved his life
而他拥有一匹叫做Dollar的马 救过两次他的命
He lost him to Jim Shoulders playin' poker one night
有一天晚上他和Jim Shoulders一起玩牌的时候 他把马儿弄丢了
When I turned eighteen I packed up an' left home:
当我十八岁的时候 我收拾行囊离开了家
Tuck was pretty old back then an' by now he's long gone
那时候的Tuck已经很老了 如今也已经离世好久
But I've heard it said that ol' cowboys don't die:
但我曾听到他对我说过 愿你心中那个牛仔永不死去
They get put out to pasture way up the sky
他们在那高高的天际放牧
So if God's got a Heaven for old cowboy legends
因此如果上帝拥有那个老牛仔传说中那样美丽的天堂
I hope the grass is greener on the other side
我希望那里是一片更加美好的国度
An' he's got good horses to ride
他拥有几匹识途的好马
Now the folks back home would tell you Tuck was just crazy an' old
如今归乡的人们都会告诉你 Tuck是一个疯狂的老人
But I still believe in Conquistadore gold
但我依然相信西班牙征服者拥有大量的黄金
An' those memories look like a mirage in the distance
那些记忆看起来就像是遥远的海市蜃楼
Starin' out from this prison of urban existence
越过这个城市的牢笼望向远方
So I saddle up an' I go back now an' then
我给马上鞍 偶尔会回忆过去
To remember who I was an' just forget where I am
记起我是谁 却忘记我曾属于何方
Now the concrete an' steel they spread out like a plague
如今钢筋混凝土如瘟疫般在大地上蔓延开来
Consumin' the rivers the mountains and the plains
吞噬掉河流 山川和平原
Then one of these days it'll all be gone
某一天后 这些美丽景色都将不复存在
But somewhere that spirit will always live on
但在世界的某个角落 美好的品质将永远留存
'Cause I've heard it said that ol' cowboys don't die:
因为我曾听到他对我说过 愿你心中那个牛仔永不死去
They get put out to pasture way up the sky
他们在那高高的天际放牧
So if God's got a Heaven for old cowboy legends
因此如果上帝拥有那个老牛仔传说中那样美丽的天堂
I hope the grass is greener on the other side
我希望那里是一片更加美好的国度
An' he's got good horses to ride
他拥有几匹识途的好马
Yeah he's got good horses to ride
他拥有几匹识途的好马
A few good horses to ride
几匹识途的好马
A few good horses to ride
几匹识途的好马
