Po' boy, where you been?
（我说）穷小子，你是哪里人？

Po' boy, never say die
假生活以时日，一切都会变好
Things will be all right, by and by
工作起来时而像是主干线上的工人一样认真 时而像个淘气鬼
而世事层次皆不同，道理却相同
Workin' like in a main line, workin' like the devil
可怜的穷小子，穿的黑漆漆的那个
The game is the same it's just upon another level
警察在盯着你呢
Po' boy, dressed in black
生活在灼热的暴力小镇的穷小子
Police at your back
在一个星光灿烂的夜里逃了出来
坐上一等车厢
Po' boy in a red hot town
四顾茫然无依靠
Out beyond the twinklin' stars
车如流水马如龙
Ridin' first class train
奥赛罗（一个因种族限制而地位卑微却爱上贵族小姐的非洲人）对苔丝狄蒙娜说：我冷了，给我盖条毯子吧

还有，那杯毒酒去哪了？
Try to keep from fallin' between the cars
她说：已经给了你，而你喝了它
可怜的穷小子，正放平了刀叉
Othello told desdemona "i'm cold, cover me with a blanket"
捡起了盘中滑落的樱桃
"by the way, what happened to that poisoned wine?"

穷小子住在“忧郁殿”酒店
Pickin' up the cherries fallin' off the plate
叫个客房服务 却说成 送上个房间来
我的妈妈是一个富农的女儿
Time and love has branded me with its claws
我从未见过爸爸 因为他是个到处兜售的销售员
Had to go to florida, dodgin' them georgia laws
妈妈去世的时候 叔叔接纳了我 让我管理一家葬仪屋
Po' boy in the hotel called the palace of gloom
我永远不会忘记叔叔的恩惠
Called down to room service, says 'send up a room'
而现在你的吻让我热血沸腾
除此之外我别无所知
My mother was the daughter of a wealthy farmer
可怜的穷小子 正捡起木桩
My father was a traveling salesman, i never met him
为你建起了一座灰泥砖瓦房
When my mother died my uncle took me in to run a funeral parlor
有人在敲门 我说：是谁啊 是哪人啊？
He did a lot of nice things for me and i won't forget him
他说：Freddie 我说：Freddie是谁？
他说：管他什么Freddie,我来做工了
All i know is that i'm thrilled by your kiss
星光闪烁于头顶
I don't know any more than this
可怜的穷小子正在洗着碟子 装着猪肉
Po' boy, pickin' up sticks
Build you a house out of mortar and bricks
Knockin' on the door, i say 'who is it, where you from?'
Man say 'freddie', i say 'freddie who?'
He say 'freddie or not, here i come'
Po' boy 'neath the stars that shine
Washin' them dishes, feedin' them swine
