歌词
I was born in East Virginia,
我出生于东弗吉尼亚
North Caroline I did roam,
曾漫游在北卡罗来纳
There I met a fair pretty maiden,
在那儿邂逅了一位美丽的少女
Her name and age I do not know.
她的芳名和年岁几何不得而知
Her hair it was of a brightsome color,
一卷秀发，亮丽夺目
And her lips of a ruby red,
两片双唇，红艳欲滴
On her breast she wore white lilies,
胸前佩戴着洁白无瑕的百合花
There I longed to lay my head.
只愿长久地侧耳俯在她身旁
Well, in my heart you are my darlin',
你是我心中的至爱
At my door you're welcome in,
在我家的门口欢迎你的身影
At my gate I'll meet you my darlin',
在我家的门口我们相遇不离
If your love I could only win.
若是能独自占有你的芳心该多好
I'd rather be in some dark holler,
我宁愿深陷黑暗的深渊
Where the sun refuse to shine,
一丝阳光也不见的地下
Then to see you be another man's darlin',
也不愿看见你成为其他男人的爱人
And to know that you'll never be mine.
而得知你永远都不能属于我
Well in the night I'm dreamin' about you,
在深夜里，我总是梦到你
In the day I find no rest,
可天一亮，我的内心就不得安宁
Just the thought of you my darlin',
脑海中你的身影挥之不去
Sends aching pains all through my breast.
无尽的痛苦刺破我的胸膛
Well when I'm dead and in my coffin,
当我独孤地死去，躺入棺中
With my feet turned toward the sun,
四脚朝天，身旁满是恶臭的泥土
Come and sit beside me darlin',
来坐在我的身旁吧至爱
Come and think on the way you done.
仔细想想你都做了些什么
