Sixteen Tons - Bo Diddley

Sixteen Tons - Bo Diddley (波迪·德利)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
People say a man is made outta mud
人们说男人不过是泥巴捏成
Poor man made outta muscle and blood
穷苦人却由血肉筋骨铸就
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
血肉筋骨与嶙峋瘦骨
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong
羸弱心智驮着钢铁脊梁
You load sixteen tons what do you get
十六吨重担压身 换得什么
Another day older and deeper in debt
徒增一日沧桑 债台高筑
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得莫召唤 我身不由己
Owe my soul to the company store
灵魂早抵押给公司商店
I was born one morning
我出生在一个清晨
When the sun didn't shine
那时阳光还未普照
I picked up my shovel and I started to the mine
我扛起铁锹走向矿井深处
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
装载了十六吨九号煤层
The straw boss said "Well now bless his soul"
工头假惺惺地说"愿主保佑他"
He loaded sixteen tons and what did he get
他运走十六吨煤 我又得到什么
Another day older and deeper in debt
徒增一日沧桑 债台高筑
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得莫召唤 我身不由己
Owe my soul to the company store
灵魂早抵押给公司商店
You see me coming you better step aside
见我走来你最好退避三舍
A lotta men didn't and a lotta of 'em died
多少人不听劝 多少人命丧黄泉
One fist of iron the other one of steel
一只铁拳如钢 另一只似铁
The right one don't get you then the left one will
右拳若打不倒 左拳必取你命
You load sixteen tons and what do you get
背完十六吨煤 换来什么
Another day older and deeper in debt
徒增一日沧桑 债台高筑
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
圣彼得莫召唤 我身不由己
Owe my soul to the company store
灵魂早抵押给公司商店
