Waiting Around To Die

歌词
Sometimes I don't know where
好吧,我有时的确不知道
This stony road is taking me
这条铺着石子的小路究竟将把我带向何方
Sometimes I don't know the reason why
我有时候甚至都不知道为何要接着走下去
So I guess I'll keep gambling
所以我猜我仍旧会管不住自己,仍旧孤注一掷地豪赌
Lots of booze and lots of rambling
紧接着的就是整天的豪饮,还有整天的无聊的玩笑
Well, it's easier than just waiting around to die
不过那总要好过傻待在原地等死
Well, one time, friends
朋友们,听着,那是好久以前的事啦
I had a ma, I even had a pa
我曾经有一个妈妈,甚至还有一个爸爸
He beat her with a belt once 'cause she cried
有一次,爸爸因为听到了哭声而找起了他的皮带
She told him to take care of me
是的,妈妈被打了,而且她告诉爸爸要好好照顾我
And headed down to Tennessee
然后颇为决绝地孤身一人去了田纳西
Well, it's easier than just waiting around to die
但我理解她,这确实比哪天惨死家中要好很多
Then I became of age
后来呢,我也长大了
And I found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
我在塔斯卡卢萨的一个酒吧碰见了一个女孩
She cleaned me out and she hit it on the sly
她挂着察觉不出的狡猾的笑,并榨干了我的钱包
Well, I tried to kill the pain
我也曾试着驱散被骗的痛苦
I bought some wine, I hopped a train
便买了些酒,然后跳上了一辆火车来同归殊途
Well, it was easier than just waiting around to die
我总不能就这么烂在这块伤心地,对不对
Then a friend said he knew
再后来,我的又一个朋友出现了
Where some easy money was
他说他能带着我挣一些快钱
We robbed a man and brother, did we fly
于是我们抢了一个男的,哥们儿,我们当时跑得那叫一个快
But the posse caught up with me
但终究没料到啊,竟然让当地的一伙民兵逮到了我
And drugged me back to Muskogee
他们把我药晕,然后押着我去了马斯科吉
And now it's two long years, just waiting around to die
整整两年,我只好对着那里边的铁窗发呆
Now I'm out of prison
但如今我高高兴兴地出了狱
And I got me a friend at last
我也总算找到了一个知心朋友
He don't steal or cheat or drink or lie
他不是小偷,也不是骗子,更不是酒鬼,还不会对我撒谎
His name is Codeine
他是我这辈子见过的最.他.妈.好的玩意儿
And he's the nicest thing I've seen
我发誓,我们死也要同穴
And together, we're gonna wait around to die
