Title：big river
大河
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry.
现在我教会了垂柳如何去哭
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.
我还给云朵展示了怎样遮住碧蓝晴空
the And tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you
我为那女人流的眼泪会使你泛滥
Big River
大河啊
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die.
然后我要在这里端坐不动至死方休
I met her accidentally in St. Paul （Minnesota）.
我无意中与她相见在圣保罗（明尼苏达）
And it tore me up every time I heard her drawl,
一听到她拖着长音，我就撕心裂肺
Southern drawl.
南方的长音啊
Then I heard my dream was back
我又发现我的梦想回来了
Downstream cavortin' in Davenport,
跳跃在下游的达文波特
And I followed you,
我要追随你
Big River, when you called.
大河啊，当你召唤时
Then you took me to St. Louis later on （down the river）
然后你顺着河流把我带到了圣路易斯
A freighter said she's been here but she's gone, boy, she's gone.
一个租船人说她来过这里可她走了，孩子，她走了
I found her trail in Memphis, but she just walked up the block.
我在孟菲斯寻觅到她的足迹，但她只走上了街逛了逛
She raised a few eyebrows and then she went on down alone
她抬了抬眉毛又独自启程
Now, won't you batter down by Baton Rouge,
现在，你难道最好不从巴吞鲁日向下游去吗？
River Queen, roll it on.
河流女皇啊，摇摆下去吧
Take that woman on down to New Orleans,
把那女人直带到新奥尔良吧
New Orleans.
新奥尔良啊
Go on, I've had enough; dump my blues down in the gulf.
继续吧，我受够了
She loves you,
她爱着你
Big River, more than me.
大河啊，胜过爱我
Now I taught the weeping willow how to cry, cry, cry
现在我教会了垂柳如何去哭，哭，哭
And I showed the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky.
我还给云朵展示了怎样遮住碧蓝晴空
And the tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you
我为那女人流的眼泪会使你泛滥
Big River.
大河啊
Then I'm gonna sit right here until I die.
