歌词
Rudy lives on the borderline Rudy
生活在小镇边缘
Between civilization and basic survival
也是文明和温饱线的边缘
And the summertime treats him fairly well

But the wintertime is a dirty cold rival.
但是冬天就是个冷酷难缠的对手了
It's wintertime now in Georgetown,
现在乔治城已经是冬天了
The streets come alive with the Christmas light
街上圣诞节的灯已经亮起，生机勃勃
And Rudy sleeps on a warm air grate, Rudy
睡在一个暖风炉口上
With a newspaper blanket on December nights.
在十二月的夜晚以一张报纸为毯
Deck the halls,
装饰房子咯
Rudolph the red-nosed wino
红鼻子驯鹿鲁道夫
Knows it's Christmas time.
现在是圣诞节
Jingle Bells and Christmas shoppers.
节日音乐响起，购物的人们
Dashing through the snow.
信步踩过白雪
God rest ye merry gentlemen
愿上帝保佑你，先生
Who've found it in your hearts
你会感觉到的
To flip Rudy a thin
扔给Rudy一枚硬币吧
And I'll be home for Christmas,
我要回家过圣诞节了
But this man has no place to go.
但这个人无处可去
Christmas has a meaning at all,
圣诞节自有其意义所在
The people of greed and incredible waste,

They seek the deeper meaning
他们急不可耐，怒气冲冲
In the shopping mall,In a yuletide spirit

Of impatience and hate.
寻找着圣诞的意义
Rudy is a patient man, Rudy

Rudy must have people somewhere,
哪里应该也会有这么一个人吧
Who wonder what became of the man.
关心着Rudy身上发生了什么
And Rudy must wonder the same damn thing
而Rudy当他伸出手对着经过他的人群乞讨时
As the crowd passes by and he sticks out his hand.
一定也在想着同样的该死的事情

装饰房子咯

Rudy died on the borderline, Rudy
最后还是死掉了
Of a civilized world on Christmas Eve.

You know the shoppers shopped,

And the temperatures dropped,
气温也在继续下降
On a man whose absence won't be grieved.

Peace on the soul of the cop

Who found him dead in a booth Rudy
被发现在一个电话亭里
With his hand frozen to a telephone.

You know, I think I know
你知道吗，我想我知道
Who he had on the line,
电话的另一头是谁
