Highwayman - Lawrence Welk with The Lennon Sisters

Highwayman - Lawrence Welk with The Lennon Sisters

Written by：J. Webb

I was a highwayman
我曾是一个拦路强盗
Along the coach roads I did ride
在海岸公路边骑着马
With sword and pistol by my side
一手握着剑 一手拿着枪
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
太多的少女因为我的职业 失去了她们闪闪发光的小饰品
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
太多的士兵在我的利刃下流尽了生命之血
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
那帮混球把我绑了起来 那是在我二十五岁的春天
But I am still alive
然而我活下来了
I was a sailor
我曾是一名水手
I was born upon the tide
生在波涛起伏中
And with the sea I did abide
我一直和海在一起
I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico
我驾驶着帆船 从好望角一路到墨西哥
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
我在狂风中爬向船顶 收起了主帆
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed
当桅杆折断时 人们都说我死了
But I am living still
然而我依旧顽强地活着
I was a dam builder
我曾是大坝的建筑者
Across the river deep and wide
穿行在又深又宽的河流
Where steel and water did collide
就是那钢铁与激流碰撞的地方
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
那地方叫做博尔德 在科罗拉多的野外
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
我滑倒了 不幸地掉进了湿的混凝土中
They buried me in that great tob that knows no sound
人们把我埋葬在巨大的坟墓中 听不见任何声音
But I am still around
然而我依然在这里
I'll always be around
我一直生龙活虎地在这里
And around and around and around and around
一直在这里
I fly a star ship
我驾驶着宇宙飞船
Across the Universe divide
穿行在宇宙虚空间
And when I reach the other side
当我到达彼岸
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
我会找一个地方 彻底放松我的灵魂 如果我可以的话
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
或许我还会选择做回拦路强盗
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
或者我只做一滴独自落下的雨
But I will remain
然而我永远都会在这里
And I'll be back again and again and again and again and again
我会回来的 一次又一次地回来
