歌词
Ain't it just like the night to play
“ 夜晚为何不用来狂欢？”
Tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet
当你想静一会儿时他们就这样说你
We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it
我们被搁浅在这座椅上，尽管我们已经尽全力去抗拒
And Louise holds here hand ful of rain, temptin' you to defy it
而露易丝则捧来雨水救场，鼓励你坚持下去
Lights flicker from the opposite loft
对面阁楼上的灯光摇晃
In this room the heat pipes just cough
这间屋的热水管噼啪作响
The country music station plays soft
乡村音乐在电台上舒缓播放
But there's nothing, really nothing to turn off
真的没必要，没必要把它关上
Just Louise and her lover so entwined
只剩露易丝和她的恋人扭抱作一团
And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind
而这些乔安娜的幻象，却抢占据了我心间
In the empty lot where the ladies play
在空地上女士们用钥匙串
Blindman's bluff with the key chain
当道具玩着瞎子捉人
And the all-night girls
那些夜不归宿的女孩们
They whisper of escapades out on the d train
在D型列车上窃声谈论着出轨
We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight
我们能听见夜巡员敲打他的手电
Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane
怀疑是自己？抑或是她们？真的疯癫失神
Louise, she's all right, she's just near
露易丝，她好的很，她就在旁边儿
She's delicate and seems like the mirror
她精致又脆弱，像一面镜儿
But she just makes it all too concise and too clear
可她让这一切太过一目了然了
That Johanna's not here
就是乔安娜已经不在这儿
The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face
在她面庞之下怒号的是那通了电的恶鬼（迪伦当时走向电声摇滚，被反对者起的绰号）
Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place
在那里，乔安娜的幻象，取代了我的地位
Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
现在，有个小男孩十分迷惘，他太把自己当回事了
He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously
他用他的悲惨事迹吹牛逼，他喜欢同危险 生活在一起
And when bringing her name up
当我提及她的名字时
He speaks of a farewell kiss to me
他则向我谈起与她的接吻和别离
He's sure got a lotta gall - to be so useless and all
他真是长了一副厚脸皮-成事不足败事有余
Muttering small talk at the wall while i'm in the hall
当他还抵在墙边发牢骚而我已经步入了大厅里（可能是曼城贸易大厅那场著名的演唱会）
How can i explain
该怎么解释呢
It's so hard to get on
好不容易才混出个人样
And these visions of Johanna, they kept me up past the dawn
是那些乔安娜的幻象，支撑我直到天亮
Inside the museums, infinity goes up on trial
在博物馆里面，永恒成了一种审判
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
这回荡的声音，过一会儿就会成为救赎解药
But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
而蒙娜丽莎还沉浸在公路蓝调里
You can tell by the way she smiles
你看她那微笑的模样，就能知道
See the primitive wallflower freeze
文艺复兴时期的壁花冻结在时间里
When the jelly-faced women all sneeze
当果冻般脸庞的女士们打着喷嚏
Hear the one with the mustache say, jeeze
留着八字胡的男人大叫“哦上帝！
I can't find my knees - Oh, jewels and binoculars
我没有膝盖了双脚不着地” 哦~珠宝和望远镜
Hang from the head of the mule
全都搭在骡子的头颅
But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel
但乔安娜的幻像又浮现了，让这一切都勾起我的痛苦
The peddler now speaks to the countess
小贩正在和那个
Who's pretending to care for him
装作在乎他的伯爵夫人说着话
Sayin', name me someone that's not a parasite
他说，告诉我个不是“寄生虫”的
And I'll go out and say a prayer for him
我就出去把这份祷词念给他
But like Louise always says
而就像露易丝常说的
You can't look at much, can you man
“你没法考虑到一切，对吗”
As she, herself, prepares for him
而她自己，却总是在考虑他
And Madonna, she still has not showed
那圣母依旧没有显灵
We see this empty cage now corrode
空的铁牢已然生锈
Where her cape of the stage once had flowed
她穿的戏服披风曾在上面飘悠
The fiddler, he now steps to the road
现在踏上路途的小提琴手
He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed
在满载生鱼的货车后头
On the back of the fish truck that loads
他写道“所有亏欠都还清了，一无所留”
While my conscience explodes
一下子激起了我的内疚
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
那口琴演奏起了梗概的旋律 而那（露易丝带来的)雨水
And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain
和乔安娜的幻象，是唯二剩下来的东西
