以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I went down to Taneytown
我独自前往塔尼镇
I went down to Taneytown
我独自前往塔尼镇
To see what I could see
想看看能遇见什么
My mama told me never go
母亲曾警告我别去那儿
But I'm almost 22 years old
可我快满二十二岁
Sometimes I fear this holler swollow me
生怕这山谷会吞噬我
She ran off to Gettysburg
她逃往葛底斯堡
Went off with that new beau of hers
跟着她的新欢远走高飞
I snuck off after dark
我趁着夜色偷偷溜走
Long way down the county road
沿着乡间小路走了很远
Stars were bright
星光璀璨
The moon was low
月影低垂
Down to where the black top highway starts
来到柏油公路的起点
I went down to Taneytown
我独自前往塔尼镇
I went down to Taneytown
我独自前往塔尼镇
I went down to see what I could see
我前去探寻 想看看有何风景
I could see everybody stared at me
却发现众人目光如刺扎向我身
You'd think that they ain't never seen
仿佛他们此生从未见过
A colored boy before
一个有色人种的少年
They chunked at me
他们朝我扔石块
Called me names
辱骂声不绝于耳
They'd have whipped me sure but the sheriff came
若非警长到来 我定遭毒打无疑
I slipped off through the dry goods store
我悄悄穿过那间杂货店
I ran down division street
沿着分界街一路狂奔
Some of them boys followed me
几个男孩紧追不舍
Down to the railroad track
直追到铁路轨道旁
Four of them and I can't fight
四人围堵我无力招架
But I had my old Randall knife
所幸随身带着兰德尔刀
I cut that boy and I never did look back
刺伤那人后头也不回
I went down to Taneytown
我独自前往塔尼镇
I went down to Taneytown
我独自前往塔尼镇
I went down to see what I could see
我前去探寻 想看看有何风景
Cross the fields and woods I run
穿越田野与树林奔逃
Like a bullet from a rabbit gun
如猎枪射出的子弹般疾驰
Back home to my bed
终于回到家中床榻
Ma came in from Gettysburg
母亲从葛底斯堡归来
Her and that new beau of hers
带着她新结识的情郎
Boy you look like hell was all she said
只冷冷说"你像从地狱爬出来"
Month went by without a word
一个月悄然流逝 杳无音信
Somebody down the holler heard
山谷里有人听闻
About that boy they hung
那个男孩被绞死的消息
He begged those men to spare his life
他苦苦哀求饶命
But I dropped my bloody Randall knife
但我遗落了染血的兰德尔刀
He picked it up so they thought he was the one
他拾起它 便被误认为凶手
I went down to Taneytown
我独自前往塔尼镇
I went down to Taneytown
我独自前往塔尼镇
I ain't going back there anymore
此生再不踏足那片土地
