The Gulf Of Mexico - Steve Earle (史蒂夫-厄尔)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Come and gather 'round me people

And a tale to you I'll tell

Of my father and his father
关于我父亲和祖父的往事
In the days before the spill
在那场灾难降临之前
With an endless sky above 'em
头顶是无尽的苍穹
And a restless sea below
脚下是躁动不安的海浪
And every blessin' flowing from the Gulf of Mexico
每一份恩赐都来自墨西哥湾的馈赠
From my Granddad with the shrimp boats
祖父曾以捕虾船为生
From the time that he was grown
自他成年起便如此
And he scrimped and saved and bought himself
他节衣缩食攒下积蓄
A trawler of his own
终于买下自己的拖网船
He was rough and he was ready
他粗犷又坚韧
And he drank when he was home
回家时总爱喝上几杯
And he made his family's living on the Gulf of Mexico
全家人靠着墨西哥湾过活
We were rolling
我们随波逐流
We were rolling
我们随波逐流
Past the deep blue water
驶过那片深蓝海域
He was rolling
他正随波起伏
Well my Daddy drove a crew boat
我父亲曾驾驶补给船
Hauling workers to the rigs
往返于钻井平台间
He was sick of mending nets
他厌倦了修补渔网
And couldn't stand the smell of fish
再难忍受鱼腥弥漫
He drew a steady paycheck
领着稳定的薪水
20 years at Texico
在德士古奉献二十年
When he died they spread his ashes
临终时将骨灰撒向
On the Gulf of Mexico
在墨西哥湾上
We were rolling
我们随波逐流
We were rolling
我们随波逐流
Past the deep green water
驶过墨绿深海
He was rolling
他正随波起伏
As for me I think of nothing
至于我 心中所念
Any grander than the day
莫过于那个重要日子
That I stepped out on the drillin' floor
当我踏上钻井平台的那一刻
To earn a roughneck's pay
为挣得钻井工的薪水
Then one night I swear I saw the devil
直到某夜 我发誓目睹恶魔现身
Crawlin' from the hole
从钻井洞中爬出
And he spilled the guts of hell out in the Gulf of Mexico
将地狱的脏腑倾泻在墨西哥湾
We were rolling
我们随波逐流
We were rolling
我们随波逐流
'Cross the blood red water
越过血染的海水
We were rolling
我们随波逐流
