歌词
When I get off of this mountain
当我驶下这座山
You know where I want to go
你知道我想去哪里
Straight down the Mississippi river
沿着密西西比河笔直地往下走
To the Gulf of Mexico
驶向墨西哥湾
To Lake George, Louisiana
到达路易斯安那州的莱克乔治城
Little Bessie, girl that I once knew
找到小贝西,那之前就和我相熟的女孩
And she told me just to come on by
她告诉我直接到她身边就好
If there's anything she could do
她会看看自己是否能为我做些什么
她送我驶上克里普尔克里克
Good luck had just stung me
如果我的车突然漏油,她会为我修补的
To the race track I did go
毋庸多言她会守护我的
She bet on one horse to win
当然如果我知道这词的话我会说这只是痴人说梦罢了
And I bet on another to show
我突然撞大运了
Odds were in my favor
在我下注的赛马比赛上
I had him five to one
她下注赌其中的一只会赢
When that nag came around the track
而我赌另一个会大放异彩
Sure enough he had won
运气在我手上
所以我在他上押了五倍
I took up all of my winnings
当所有马开始沿着跑道奔跑的时候
And I gave my little Bessie half
很明显他赢啦
And she tore it up and blew it in my face
她送我驶上克里普尔克里克
Just for a lauge
如果我的车突然漏油,她会为我修补的
Now there's one thing in the whole wide world
毋庸多言她会守护我的
I sure would like to see
当然如果我知道这词的话我会说这只是痴人说梦罢了
That's when that little love of mine
我拿着赌马赢的所有钱
Dips her doughnut in my tea
把其中的一半分给了我的小贝西
她把那些钱撕碎了甩到我脸上
Now me and my mate were back at the shack
只为了呵呵一笑
We had Spike Jones on the box
现在在这广阔的世界上
She said, "I can't take the way he sings
只有一件事我实在想看到
But I love to hear him talk"
就是当我的小爱人
Now that just gave my heart a fall
在我的茶中蘸炸面圈的样子
To the bottom of my feet
她送我驶上克里普尔克里克
And I swore and I took another pull
如果我的车突然漏油,她会为我修补的
My Bessie can't be beat
毋庸多言她会守护我的
当然如果我知道这词的话我会说这只是痴人说梦罢了
Now, it's hot in California
现在我和贝西在窝棚里背靠背坐着
And up north it's pretty cold
唱机里放着斯派克·琼斯的歌
And this living off the road
她说,“我受不了他唱歌的方式”
Is getting pretty old
“但我喜欢听他说话”
So I guess I'll call up my big mama
当时我就心头一沉
Tell her I'll be rolling in
一直沉到脚底
Bet you know, deep down, I'm kinda tempted
我骂了一句然后换了张新碟片
To see my sweet Bessie again
我的贝西才不会这种小事被打败
她送我驶上克里普尔克里克
[02:44.38][02:00.89][01:17.90][00:34.38]Up on Cripple Creek she sends me
如果我的车突然漏油,她会为我修补的
[02:47.66][02:04.22][01:21.32][00:37.67]If I spring a leak she mends me
毋庸多言她会守护我的
[02:50.87][02:07.46][01:24.57][00:41.14]I don't have to speak she defends me
当然如果我知道这词的话我会说这只是痴人说梦罢了
[02:54.23][02:10.68][01:27.72][00:44.36]A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one
现在,加利福尼亚一片酷热
[02:58.14][02:14.67][01:31.64][00:48.31]
往北走却非常寒冷
