歌词
A cab combs the snake
一辆出租车找寻着卑劣的人
试图搜刮昨晚的票钱
Tryin to rake in that last nights fare
还有一个独处的水手
And a solitary sailor
他像对陌生人挥洒钱财一般
Who spends the facts of his life
毫不吝啬地四处说道着人生哲理
Like small change on strangers
翻遍他的海军大衣口袋
Paws his inside p-coat pocket
寻找那令人愉悦的25美分
For a welcome twenty-five cents
一包箭牌香烟中的
And the last bent butt
最后一支弯曲的烟蒂
From a package of kents
就如他一直梦想中的女服务生
As he dreams of a waitress
有着麦斯威尔咖啡色的眼睛
With maxwell house eyes
果酱般甜美的腿部
And marmalade thighs
和杂黄色的秀发
With scrambled yellow hair
她如莱茵石般闪耀的芳名为艾琳
当她抹去眼中
Her rhinestone-studded moniker says irene
那一丝掺杂着许少洗碗水污浊的亚麻色
德古士的烽火开始燃烧
As she wipes the wisps of
一位来修钢丝的服务人员
Dishwater blonde from her eyes
携带着一个“环和阀转用”的牌子
大喊着“装满她(它)然后检查一下汽油”
And the texaco beacon burns on
“你要知道那可能是个配电器
The steel-belted attendant
或只是随便一盘线“
With a ring and valve special
之前在早晨最终得出的版本已经确认了
Cryin filler up and check that oil
那些城市里哭泣的人们继续哭泣着
You know it could be a distributor
他手中握着镍币
And it could be a coil
在毛毯中的猪值69美分
鸡蛋和一盒箭牌烟草在它们身上翻滚而过
The early mornin final editions on the stands
原木上的亚当和夏娃
你可以让他们直接淹没于水中
And that town cryers cryin there
薯饼啊薯饼啊
With nickels in his hands
你知道我不能迟到
Pigs in a blanket sixty-nine cents
随后黑夜破晓
Eggs-roll em over and a package of kents
露出一地毯的钻石
Adam and eve on a log
一辆承载经济作物的车经过
You can sink em damn straight
载满了闪闪发光的轿式马车
Hash browns hash browns
在人们的协调生活之下
You know I cant late be
离开这个小镇
而人们在清扫着礼拜六夜晚的幽魂
And the early dawn cracks
Out a carpet of diamond
Across a cash crop car lot
Filled with twilight coupe devilles
Leaving the town in a-keeping
Of the one who is sweeping
Up the ghost of saturday night
