Clayton Was a Cowboy

歌词
Clayton was a cowboy from Branson, Colorado
Clayton是一位来自布兰森,科罗拉多州的牛仔
He never had a drink he didn't like
他从不点自己不喜欢的饮料
And every chance that he would get, he'd turn it up full throttle
即便是一线生机,他都会全力以赴设法成功
I guess that's just the way old Clayton liked to live his life
这就是Clayton这个老牛仔乐在其中的生活方式
His mama always told him not to worship any idols
母亲经常教导他不要崇拜偶像
Puttin' faith in man will almost always let you down
把希望寄予某人最终都会失望
Drivin' cross the country, he was winnin' all the titles
参加的每场比赛他都斩获头牌
Breakin' hearts along the way and livin' town to town
漂泊的途中不断受伤四处为家
Out west of the Rockies, up in Northern California
在落基山脉以西,加利福尼亚州以北
Through the ridin' and the ropin', a young lady caught his eye
凭借牛仔竞技场的亮眼表现,他收获了一位年轻姑娘的青睐
She asked him, "Would you like to dance?"
她问他:“能一起跳支舞吗?”
And he said, "I've gotta warn ya
他回答:“我得警告你”
I was born with two left feet, but I can give it my best try"
“我舞技很糟糕,但我会尽量跳最好”
Nothin' good lasts forever
好事虽不会常伴左右
Doesn't mean you shouldn't try
但不意味着不去尝试
They say it's better late than never
都知道迟到总比缺席要好
Hell can wait until tomorrow
糟糕的事都可以推到明天
He's got one more bull to ride
下一场生死竞技在等着他
He pulled into a rodeo somewhere in Oklahoma
他又准备在Oklahoma的某场牛仔竞技大展身手
Wind was blowin' strong and kicked the dust into his eyes
风吹得太猛,他的眼里满是沙子
He walked into a field to smell the flowers' sweet aroma
上场前走进田野再闻一次野花香
Said a cowboy's prayer and then he looked up to the sky
默念两句行业里的祝福语后望向天空
They paired him with an angry bull whose name was El Diablo
他要挑战的是一头无比愤怒的公牛,名叫El Diablo(西语,意为暗黑破坏神)
Tied the rope down tight and the gates swung open wide
捏紧手中的缰绳,牛角前的大门开了
He bucked him off the side, but his hand just wouldn't let go
公牛用尽力气把他甩到一边,但他始终不肯松手
The clowns all tried to save him as the crowd looked on in fright
工作人员试图解救他,观众一脸惊恐,但一切太晚
Nothin' good lasts forever
好事虽不会常伴左右
Doesn't mean you shouldn't try
但不意味着不去尝试
They say it's better late than never
都知道迟到总比缺席要好
Hell can wait until tomorrow
糟糕的事都可以推到明天
He's got one more bull to ride
下一场生死竞技在等着他
A somber wave of silence swept over the arena
沉默笼罩了整个牛仔竞技场
As Clayton lay there lyin' on the cold and dirty ground
Clayton倒在脏冷的黄土地上,一动不动
'Cause Clayton was a cowboy from Branson, Colorado
Clayton是一位来自布兰森,科罗拉多州的牛仔
His ramblin' days are over, this old cowboy's homeward bound
他望不到头的生活结束了,这位老牛仔现在回家了
