歌词
Sacramentos half the city
在沙加缅度的正中
Since you took that job two states away
自从你去了两个州以外的远方工作
I count the days as I wait these tables
我就在餐馆侍应的时候数着天数
Trying to save the fare to come and stay
攒着你回来时我们要用的钱
And the smiles on the outside
窗外的那些笑靥
Couldn't be further from the truth if I tried
已经离我所追求的真谛愈来愈远
It's a fight just to survive
我们只不过是为了生存而奋斗
Working two jobs to keep the meter alive
打两份工，只不过是为了让生活继续下去
老林顿先生去世了，带着许多人的深切慰问
Old Mr Lindon passed on his warmest regards
就去世再靠窗的那张椅子上
From the window seat
自从他的贤妻离他而去
Since his good wife took leave of this life
他早就不是从前的那个男人了
He ain't half the man he used to be
窗外那些笑靥
And the smiles on the outside
已经离他所追求的真谛愈来愈远
Couldn't be further from the truth if he tried
还有那漫天的繁星
And the stars up in the skies
在你不在我身边的某天，也许也会燃尽吧
May as well burn out if you ain't by my side
哦玛丽安，玛丽安，请你等等我
Oh Mary Ann, Mary Ann, wait for me
总有一天我会成为你的王
One day I will be your King
你也会成为我的王后
And you will be my Queen
还记得乔吗，那个被赶走的乔
被赶到了城区边缘的锯木厂
Remember Joe, well they let him go
他们说他曾经的辉煌已经值得他这一生
Down at the sawmill on the edge of town
乔现在正酗酒
They say that pride can cost a man his life
窗外的笑靥
Well Joes taken to drinking now
已经离我所追求的真谛愈来愈远
And the smiles on the outside
我们只不过是为了生存而奋斗
Couldn't be further from the truth if they tried
打两份工，只不过是为了让生活继续下去
It's a fight just to survive
哦玛丽安，玛丽安，请你等等我
Working two jobs to keep the meter alive
总有一天我会成为你的王
Oh Mary Ann, Mary Ann, wait for me
你也会成为我的王后
One day I will be your King
路边林立的橘树
And you will be my Queen
它们不会同情我的
孩子们已长大
The orange groves that line these roads
就在你不在的时候
Ain't gonna' offer me no sympathy
窗外的笑靥
The kids have grown and they miss you so
已经离我们所追求的真谛愈来愈远
While you've been out there making history
我们只不过是为了生存而奋斗
And the smiles on the outside
打两份工，只不过是为了让生活继续下去
Couldn't be further from the truth if we tried
哦玛丽安，玛丽安，请你等等我
It's a fight just to survive
总有一天我会成为你的王
Working two jobs to keep the meter alive
你也会成为我的王后
Oh Mary Ann, Mary Ann, wait for me
One day I will be your King
And you will be my Queen
