歌词
As I was walking down the street last night
昨晚,当我走在街上的时候
A pretty little girl came into sight
一个漂亮的小女孩出现在了我的视线中
I bowed and smiled and asked her name
我弯下腰,对着她微笑,还问了她的名字
She said hold it bud I don't play that game
她说等等,但是我却不玩那样的游戏
I reached in my pocket and to her big surprise
我把手伸进衣兜,让她大吃一惊的是
There was lincoln staring her dead in the eyes
林肯直勾勾地盯着她
On a greenback greenback dollar bill
林肯在美钞,美钞,美钞上
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条
She looked at me with that familiar desire
她用那种熟悉的渴望的眼神望着我
Her eyes lit up like they were on fire
她的眼前突然一亮,好像着火了一样
She said my name's flo and you're on the right track
她说我叫弗洛,你找对了
But look here daddy I wear furs on my back
但是看看这儿,爸爸,我身上穿着皮草
So if you want to have fun in this man's land
所以,如果你想在这个人的地盘上玩得愉快
Let lincoln and jackson start shaking hands
让林肯和杰克逊开始握手
On a greenback greenback dollar bill
都在美钞,美钞,美钞上
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条
I didn't know what I was getting into
我不知道我遇到了什么
But I popped lincoln and jackson too
但是我也突然看到了林肯和杰克逊
I didn't mind seeing them fade out of sight
我不介意看着它们逐渐消失在视线里
I just knew I'd have some fun last night
我只知道我昨晚过得很愉快
Whenever you in town and looking for a thrill
无论何时你在镇上寻找刺激
If lincoln can't get it jackson sure will
如果林肯不行,那么杰克逊一定可以
On a greenback greenback dollar bill
在美钞,美钞,美钞上
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条
We went to a nightspot where the lights were low
我们去了一家光线很暗的夜总会
Dined and danced and I was ready to go
吃饭和跳舞,我准备好要走
I got out of my seat and when flo arose
当弗洛出现的时候,我离开了座位
She said hold on daddy while I powder my nose
她在我的鼻子上抹了一些粉,说道,等等,爸爸
I sat back down with a smiling face
我微笑着继续坐下
While she went down to the powder place
她去了化妆间
With my greenback greenback dollar bill
我的美钞,美钞,美钞
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
只是被涂成绿色的小纸条
The music stopped and the lights came on
音乐停了,灯亮了起来
I looked around and saw I was all alone
我环顾四周,看见只有我独自一人
I didn't know how long flo had been gone
我不知道,弗洛已经离开多久了
But a nose powder sure didn't take that long
但是抹点粉肯定要不了那么长的时间
I left the place with tears in my eyes
我含着泪离开了那个地方
As I waved lincoln and Jackson a last goodbye
我挥手和美钞,美钞,美钞上的
On a greenback greenback dollar bill
林肯和杰克逊挥手告别
Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll
美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条
