歌词
Stand on the corner
此刻我站在
Of Toulouse and dauphin
图卢兹街道和多芬街道交壤的拐角处
Waitin' on Marie-Ondine
等待着玛丽·翁丁女士的到来
I'm tryin' to place a tune
我正试着哼一首曲子
Under a Louisiana moonbeam
在路易斯安那州的澄莹月光下
On the planet of New Orleans
在这颗新奥尔良星球上
In a bar they call the Saturn
在一个被人们称呼为土星的酒吧里
And in her eyes of green
在她那谜一般碧绿色的眼眸深处
And somethin' that she said in a dream
浮现在午夜，她梦中呢喃的唇边
Inside of my suit I got my mojo root
在西装口袋里我找到了自己的魅力源泉
And a true love figurine
一个代表真挚的爱情小雕塑
For the planet of the New Orleans
它来自新奥尔良星球
New Orleans, with other life upon it
新奥尔良星球上，还有其他的生命体物种
And everythin' that's shakin' in between
他们无论做什么选择都会权衡利弊得摇摆不定
If you should ever land upon it
若你想登陆并扎根于这颗星球
You better know what's on it
你最好先熟悉这星球上的点点滴滴
The planet of the New Orleans
我在新奥尔良星球上
Now I'm tryin' to find my way

Through the rain and the steam
视线透过雨珠和雾气
I'm lookin' straight ahead through the screen
我通过汽车玻璃目视着前方
And then I heard her say
随后我听见她嘀咕道
Somethin' in the limousine
这俩豪华轿车似乎有什么玄机
'Bout takin' a ride across the planet of the New Orleans
我们在新奥尔良星球上开车兜风
If she was an ace and I was just a jack
如果她是扑克牌里的王，那么我只是一张J
And the cards were never seen
但这里的人们从未见过扑克牌
We could have been the king and the queen
我们本可以成为国王和王后
But she took me back to her courtyard
但她把我带回到她的庭院
Where magnolia perfume screams
附近似乎传来木兰香的气息猛地飘过
Behind the gates and the granite
隐匿在庭院大门和花岗岩石的后面
Of the planet of the New Orleans
就在这颗新奥尔良星球上
New Orleans, with other life upon it
新奥尔良星球上，还有其他的生命体物种
And everythin' that's shakin' in between

And everythin' that's shakin' in between
