原歌词
[00:00.000] 作曲 : Ian Noe
[00:01.364] Look like a hundred guns held on me
[00:06.991] Hunkered by the shed, a Detroit general and company
[00:13.942] A calling boy come out, we have you jailed
[00:20.062] Beside the buckshot door, I stood still,
[00:25.165] wondering how the hell the bastards found me
[00:30.158] in those hills and clinging to a letter that I wished I'd mailed
[00:38.729] Oh rest easy, Madeline, I'm bringing down the bank
[00:45.961] across this flooded county line,
[00:50.379] and when I get home we'll have a grand old time
[00:56.888] But don't you shed no tears, or be surprised,
[01:01.735] if you get the word that your wild man's up and died.
[01:08.283] Just set me up a stone on that high hill side.
[01:24.079] Now in the pouring snow, sad but swift
[01:28.783] I headed down the highway
[01:30.700] hoping that the burden of my blues would lift,
[01:35.183] and praying that whiskey would keep me brave.
[01:41.544] Oh but I got caught in the cold,
[01:46.409] looking like a hobo without no mercy from the road,
[01:53.072] and feeling like a dead man without a grave.
[01:59.610] Oh rest easy, Madeline, I'm bringing down the bank
[02:06.546] across the flooded county line,
[02:11.129] And when I get home we'll have a grand old time.
[02:17.163] But don't you shed no tears, or be surprised,
[02:22.419] if you get the word that your wild man's up and died.
[02:29.014] Just set me up a stone on that high hill side.
[02:35.428] Oh my oh my
[02:53.161] Well bloodied up and chained,
[02:55.535] my legs pinned down,
[02:58.097] I woke to find my fate in the hands of four men
[03:02.509] gathered around, cursing for the bag they knew I'd hid.
[03:10.714] And the more they stomped and moaned, the more I preyed,
[03:15.497] feeling every spark flying off that file and their rusted blade.
[03:22.347] Said better think it through this is your last chance kid.
[03:29.205] Oh rest easy, Madeline, I'm bringing down the bank
[03:35.893] across this flooded county line,
[03:39.988] and when I get home we'll have a grand old time
[03:46.107] But don't you shed no tears, or be surprised,
[03:51.390] if you get the word that your wild man's up and died.
[03:57.858] Just set me up a stone on that high hill side.
歌词翻译
[00:01.364] 看起来有一百把枪指着我
[00:06.991] 一个底特律将军和他的手下盘坐在小屋旁
[00:13.942] 叫喊着出来,小子,我们要把你关进监狱
[00:20.062] 我静静站立在布满弹孔的门旁,
[00:25.165] 想着这些混蛋怎么会在山里找到我
[00:30.158] 紧抓着那封我希望能寄出去的信
[00:38.729] 放心,玛德琳,我要抢劫银行,
[00:45.961] 越过这洪水泛滥的郡界
[00:50.379] 回家后我们将度过一段美好的旧时光。
[00:56.888] 但不要留下眼泪,或感到意外,
[01:01.735] 如果你听闻你的丈夫猝然长逝,
[01:08.283] 请为我在那高山上立起一块石碑。
[01:24.079] 在这悲伤而迅捷的大雪之中,
[01:28.783] 我沿着公路行走,
[01:30.700] 希望我忧郁的重担能够减轻,
[01:35.183] 祈祷威士忌能让我勇敢。
[01:41.544] 但在寒风中我被抓住,
[01:46.409] 像一个没能从路上得到怜悯的流浪汉,
[01:53.072] 一个没有墓穴的死人。
[01:59.610] 放心,玛德琳,我要抢劫银行,
[02:06.546] 越过这洪水泛滥的郡界
[02:11.129] 回家后我们将度过一段美好的旧时光。
[02:17.163] 但不要留下眼泪,或感到意外,
[02:22.419] 如果你听闻你的丈夫猝然长逝,
[02:29.014] 请为我在那高山上立起一块石碑。
[02:35.428] 上帝啊上帝
[02:53.161] 血污遍体,镣铐缠身,
[02:55.535] 我的双腿被钉死在地
[02:58.097] 醒来发现我的命运在四个陌生人手中,
[03:02.509] 他们围在我身旁,诅咒着那个被我藏起来的钱袋
[03:10.714] 他们越是跺脚抱怨,我越是祈祷,
[03:15.497] 感受着从那锉刀和生锈的利刃上溅出的火花,
[03:22.347] 对我说小子,这是你的最后一次机会
[03:29.205] 放心,玛德琳,我要抢劫银行,
[03:35.893] 越过这洪水泛滥的郡界
[03:39.988] 回家后我们将度过一段美好的旧时光。
[03:46.107] 但不要留下眼泪,或感到意外,
[03:51.390] 如果你听闻你的丈夫猝然长逝,
[03:57.858] 请为我在那高山上立起一块石碑。
