歌词
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
那是一个周六的晚上
The regular crowd shuffles in
人群像平日一样涌入城市
There's an old man sitting next to me
一个老人坐在我身旁
Making love to his tonic and gin
品尝着他手中的金汤力
He says, "Son, can you play me a memory
他说：“孩子，能为我演奏一曲回忆吗
I'm not really sure how it goes
虽然我不太清楚它听起来如何
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
但我知晓往事中的酸楚与甜蜜
When I wore a younger man's clothes."
特别是在我穿上年轻小伙的衣服时”

And you've got us feeling alright

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
好啦，现在酒吧的约翰成了我的朋友
He gets me my drinks for free
他能为我的酒水免单
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke

But there's someplace that he'd rather be
但是他今天有一个更好去处
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
约翰说：“现在的生活正在杀死我”
As the smile runs away from his face
于是收起了脸上的笑容
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
“其实我绝对能当个影星
If I could get out of this place"
如果我能离开这个鬼地方的话”

And the microphone smells like a beer
