Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues - Judy Collins
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
When you're lost in the rain in Juarez
当你在华雷斯城的雨中迷失方向
And it's Eastertime too
又恰逢复活节时光
And your gravity fails
当你失去重心坠落
And negativity don't pull you through
消极情绪也无法将你拯救
Don't put on any airs
莫要故作姿态
When you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue
当你流落至鲁尔格街巷
They got some hungry women there
那里的饥渴女人
And they really make a mess outa you
会将你彻底撕碎埋葬
Now if you see Saint Annie
若你遇见圣安妮
Please tell her thanks a lot
请代我道声感谢
I cannot move
我无法动弹
My fingers there are all in a knot
手指全都绞缠成结
I have got the strength
但我仍有力量
To get up and take another shot
起身再试一次
And my best friend my doctor
而我最好的朋友 那位医生
Won't even say what I've got
始终不肯说我患了什么
Sweet Melinda
亲爱的梅琳达
The peasants call her the goddess of gloom
乡民们称她为忧郁女神
She speaks good English
她说着流利的英语
And she invites you up into her room
邀你进入她的闺房
And you're so kind
你如此温柔体贴
And careful not to go to her too soon
小心翼翼不敢唐突造访
And she steals your voice
她却偷走你的声音
And leaves you howling at the moon
留你独自对月长嚎
Up on Housing Project Hill
在公屋山丘之上
It's either fortune or fame
要么追逐财富 要么博取声名
You must pick up one or the other
你必须二者择一
Though neither of them are to be what they claim
尽管两者皆非表面那般光鲜
If you're lookin' to get silly
若你想荒唐度日
You better go back to from where you came
不如回到来时的地方
Because the cops don't need you here
因为警察不欢迎你在此
And man they expect the same
而人们也抱有同样期望
Now all the authorities
如今那些权贵们
They just stand around and boast
只会站在一旁夸夸其谈
How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms
他们如何要挟那位侍卫长
Into leaving his post
迫使他擅离职守
And picking up Angel who
又去接应安吉尔
Just arrived here from the coast
那个刚从海岸到来的人
Who looked so fine at first
初见时光鲜亮丽
But left looking just like a ghost
离去时却形销骨立
When I started out on burgundy
当我初尝勃艮第的微醺
But soon hit the harder stuff
转眼却坠入更烈的深渊
Everybody said they'd stand behind me
人人都说会做我后盾
When the game got rough
直到赌局变得艰难
But you know the joke on me
但命运对我开了玩笑
There was nobody even there to bluff
连虚张声势的人都消散
I'm going back to New York City
我要回到纽约城
I do believe I've had enough
我想我真的受够了
