歌词
Every step of the way we walk the line
每一步，我们都走在老路上
你的日子屈指可数，我的也是
Your days are numbered so are mine
往昔越来越多，我们渴望田野，却迷了路
被困在大雾里，无处可逃
Time is piling up we struggle and we stray
城市只是另一片丛林，有更多的游戏
被困在冰冷的墙壁，试图逃离
We're all boxed in nowhere to escape
我在乡下长大，却在城里工作
从我放下行李箱的那天起，就一直麻烦不断
City's just a jungle more games to play
我没有任何东西可以给你，以前也从没有过
甚至给我自己，也没留下什么
Trapped in the heart of it tryin' to get away
天空满是火烧云，痛苦倾泻而下
你没什么可以卖给我的，回头见
I was raised in the country I been working in the town
我曾经以为自己的的语言才能崇高而充满了力量
可我现在明白我的理论和诗歌，永远不能代替你的思考
I been in trouble ever since I set my suitcase down
只有一件事我做错了
在密西西比多呆了一天
Got nothing for you I had nothing before
魔鬼在巷子里，骡子在马厩里
你想说什么都行，我都听过了
Don't even have anything for myself anymore
我在想罗西说的话
我梦见我睡在罗西的床上
Sky full of fire Pain pouring down
穿过从树上飘落的树叶
感觉自己像个异乡人
Nothing you can sell me I'll see you around
太多事情无法挽回
我知道你很抱歉，我也惭愧
All my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime
有些人会向你伸出手，有些人不会
昨晚我认识你，今晚却形同陌路
Could never do you justice in reason or rhyme
我需要一些够劲的东西分散我的注意力
我会一直看着你，直到我的眼睛失明
Only one thing I did wrong
我跟随南极星来到这里
我跨过密西西比河就是为了来到你现在的地方
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
只有一件事我做错了
在密西西比多呆了一天
Well the devil's in the alley mule's in the stall
我的船已裂成碎片，快速的下沉
我在烈酒中沉溺 不畏将来 不忆往昔
Say anything you wanna I have heard it all
但我的内心并不疲倦，充满光明，渴望自由
我对所有和我一起航行的人都充满感激之情
I was thinking about the things that Rosie said
如果他们还未抵达那儿 那就是在奋力前行的路上
每个人都在向往某处
I was dreaming I was sleeping in Rosie's bed
坚持，无论如何都要跟着我
眼前的每件事都变得有趣
Walking through the leaves falling from the trees
我的衣服湿了，紧贴着我的皮肤
但不像我在角落画的自画像那样紧绷
Feeling like a stranger nobody sees
我知道命运正等着我们去行善
所以请你握紧我的手，说你是我的
So many things that we never will undo
空虚是无止境的，冷得像粘土
你随时可以回来
I know you're sorry I'm sorry too
但你不能回到过去
只有一件事我做错了
Some people will offer you their hand and some won't
在密西西比多呆了一天
Last night I knew you tonight I don't
I need something strong to distract my mind
I'm gonna look at you 'til my eyes go blind
Well I got here following the southern star
I crossed that river just to be where you are
Only one thing I did wrong
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
Well my ship's been split to splinters and it's sinking fast
I'm drowning in the poison got no future got no past
But my heart is not weary it's light and it's free
I've got nothing but affection for all those who sailed with me
Everybody's moving if they ain't already there
Everybody's got to move somewhere
Stick with me baby stick with me anyhow
Things should start to get interesting right about now
My clothes are wet tight on my skin
Not as tight as the corner that I painted myself in
I know that fortune is waiting to be kind
So give me your hand and say you'll be mine
Well the emptiness is endless cold as the clay
You can always come back
But you can't come back all the way
Only one thing I did wrong
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
