Texas 1947 - Guy Clark
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Now bein' six years old I had seen some trains before
六岁的我 早已见过不少火车
So it's hard to figure out what I'm at the depot for
所以很难理解 我为何来到车站
Trains are big and black and smokin' - steam screamin' at the wheels
火车巨大、漆黑、冒着烟 蒸汽在车轮间嘶吼
Bigger than anything they is at least that's the way she feels
比任何东西都庞大 至少感觉如此
Trains are big and black and smokin' louder'n July four
火车巨大、漆黑、冒着烟 比七月四日还喧闹
But everybody's actin' like this might be somethin' more
但每个人都表现得 这似乎非同寻常
than just pickin' up the mail or the soldiers from the war
不仅仅是来取邮件 或迎接归来的士兵
This is somethin' that even old man Wileman never seen before
这是连老威勒曼都未曾见过的事情
And it's late afternoon on a hot Texas day
在一个炎热的德克萨斯州下午
Somethin' strange is goin' on and we's all in the way
有些奇怪的事情正在发生，我们都挡在路上
Well there's fifty or sixty people they're just sittin' on their cars
大约有五六十人坐在他们的车上
And the old men left their dominos and they come down from the bars
老人们离开了多米诺骨牌，从酒吧里走出来
Everybody's checkin' old Jack Kittrel check his watch
每个人都在查看，老杰克·基特尔看了看他的表
And us kids put our ears to the rails to hear 'em pop
我们这些孩子把耳朵贴在铁轨上，听它们发出声响
So we already knowed it when they finally said 'train time'
所以当人们终于说“火车来了”时，我们已经知道了
You'd a-thought that Jesus Christ his-self was rollin' down the line
你会以为耶稣基督亲自沿着铁轨驶来
'Cause things got real quiet momma jerked me back
因为一切突然安静 妈妈猛地把我拉回
But not before I'd got the chance to lay a nickel on the track
但在此之前 我已把一枚硬币放在铁轨上
Look out here she comes she's comin'

Look out there she goes she's gone

Screamin' straight through Texas

And they're wonderin' what it's comin' to

And how it got this far

Oh but me I got a nickel smashed flatter than a dime
