The Best Of All Possible Worlds - Kris Kristofferson
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I was runnin' thru the summer rain try'n' to catch that evenin' train
我曾在夏雨中狂奔 想赶上那班夜行列车
And kill the old familiar pain weavin' thru my tangled brain
试图摆脱萦绕心头的旧痛 那盘踞在我混乱思绪中的苦楚
When I tipped my bottle back and smacked into a cop I didn't see
当我仰头痛饮时 却撞上了没注意到的警察
That police man said "Mister Cool if you ain't drunk then you're a fool "
那位警官说："酷先生 你若没醉 那定是个蠢货"
I said "If that's against the law then tell me why I never saw
我回道："若这也算违法 那请告诉我为何从未见过
A man locked in that jail of yours who wasn't neither black or poor as me "
被关进你那牢房的 有哪个不是像我这般又黑又穷"
Well that was when someone turned out the lights
就在那时 有人熄灭了灯火
And I wound up in jail to spend the night
最终我在牢房里度过漫漫长夜
And dream of all the wine and lonely girls
梦见美酒与孤独的姑娘
In this best of all possible worlds
在这最美好的世界上
Well I woke up next mornin' feelin' like my head was gone
翌日清晨醒来 头痛欲裂
And like my thick old tongue was lickin' something sick and wrong
粗厚的舌头舔舐着 某种病态的苦涩
And I told that man I'd sell my soul for something wet and cold as that old cell
我对狱卒说 愿出卖灵魂换口冰凉的酒 就像这阴冷的牢房
That kindly jailer grinned at me all eaten up with sympathy
仁慈的狱卒咧嘴一笑 满脸虚伪的同情
Then poured himself another beer and came and whispered in my ear
他给自己续了杯啤酒 凑近我耳边低语
"If booze was just a dime a bottle boy you couldn't even buy the smell"
"若酒只卖一毛钱 小子 你连酒香都闻不起"
I said "I knew there was something I liked about this town "
我说 "这小镇总有些让我留恋的地方"
But it takes more than that to bring me down down down
但这点羁绊还不足以让我倒下 倒下 倒下
'Cause there's still a lot of wine and lonely girls
毕竟这里还有美酒与寂寞的姑娘
In this best of all possible worlds
在这看似完美的世界上
Well they finally came and told me they was a gonna set me free
终于有人来告诉我即将重获自由
And I'd be leavin' town if I knew what was good for me
若我识相就该离开这地方
I said "It's nice to learn that ev'rybody's so concerned about my health "
我说 "得知大家都这么关心我的健康真是暖心"
(They were obsessed with it)
(他们对此念念不忘)
I said "I won't be leavin' no more quicker than I can
我说 "我不会这么快就离开
'Cause I've enjoyed about as much of this as I can stand
因为我已受够了这一切
And I don't need this town of yours more than I never needed nothin' else "
我不需要你的小镇 就像我从来不需要其他任何东西"
'Cause there's still alot of drinks that I ain't drunk
因为还有很多酒我没喝过
And lots of pretty thoughts that I ain't thunk
还有很多美好的念头我没想过
And lord there's still so many lonely girls
上帝啊 这世上还有那么多孤独的女孩
In this best of all possible worlds
在这看似完美的世界上
