The Boy Who Wouldn’t Hoe Corn
The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn - Alison Krauss & Union Station
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Tell you a little story and it won't take long
且听我讲个简短故事
'Bout a lazy farmer who wouldn't hoe his corn
关于懒汉不锄玉米田的往事
The reason why I never could tell
个中缘由我始终难明
For that young man was always well
那后生明明身强体健
He planted his corn in the month of June
六月天里才播种玉米
And by July it was up to his eyes
七月时节已高过眉梢
Come September came a big frost
九月寒霜忽降人间
And all the young man's corn was lost
满田庄稼尽数凋零
His story kith had just begun
他的故事才刚刚开始
Said \"Young man have you hoed some corn \"
问道\"年轻人 你可曾锄过玉米地\"
\"Well I tried and I tried and I tried in vain
\"唉 我试了又试 徒劳无功
But I don't believe I raised no grain\"
恐怕颗粒无收已成定局\"
He went down town to his neighbor's door
他来到镇上邻居门前
Where he had often been before
这地方他常来常往
Sayin' \"Pretty little miss will you marry me \"
说着\"美丽的姑娘 可愿嫁我为妻\"
Little miss what do you say \"
姑娘啊 你意下如何\"
\"Why do you come for me to wed
\"为何前来向我求婚\"
You can't even make your own corn grain
你连玉米都种不成
Single I am and will remain
我宁愿终身不嫁
A lazy man I won't maintain\"
绝不嫁给懒汉为妻
He turned his back and walked away
他转身愤然离去
Sayin' \"Little miss you'll rue the day
说道\"小姐你会后悔今日\"
You'll rue the day that you were born
你会后悔来到这世上
For givin' me the devil 'cos I wouldn't hoe corn\"
就因拒绝我这不愿耕作的懒汉
