Along with priests and deacons of his court
身旁站着神父和执事们
A quartermaster quite a man a mistress of the line

Has found a last cent avenue of pain

A Mardi Gras just passed this way a while ago

Making hungry people of us all
让我们都成了饥饿的人
Along the Mississippi you can hear the fiddlers play
沿着密西西比河 你能听到琴声悠扬
Fandangos and boleros to the lord
献给上帝的方丹戈与波莱罗舞曲
Many times many tried
多少次 多少尝试
Simple stories are the best

Keep in mind the wishful kind

Don't wanna be like all the rest
不愿随波逐流
My uncle was a vicar in the big parade
我叔叔曾是盛大游行中的牧师
Selling fountain pens that never write

San Sebastian gamblers never cheat nor lie

They know good fences make good neighbours

I wish I knew what time of year it was

What kind of people will be there
将会遇见怎样的众生百态
When gruesome tales of two cities ran

Running all the way
故事仍在延续
Father might have heard his prayers were answered
神父或许已听闻祷词得应验
Inhibitions all the way from home
故乡带来的拘谨始终萦绕
Consider now consider then before the deed is done
此刻思量 在事成之前再三斟酌
The blood of consolation runs so true
慰藉之血依旧温热流淌
Many times many tried Simple stories are the best
多少次尝试 多少回追寻 简单故事最动人心弦
Keep in mind the wishful kind
