原歌词
[00:00.000] 作曲 : Gary Brooker/Keith Reid
[00:01.743] Oh, the devil came from Kansas. Where he went to I can’t say
[00:07.341] Though I teach I’m not a preacher, and I aim to stay that way
[00:13.760] There’s a monkey riding on my back – been there for some time
[00:19.648] He says he knows me very well, but he’s no friend of mine
[00:26.026] I am not a humble pilgrim
[00:31.895] There’s no need to scrape and squeeze
[00:37.207] And don’t beg for silver paper
[00:43.900] When I’m trying to sell you cheese
[00:51.654]
[00:55.400] Oh, the devil came from Kansas. where he went to I can’t say
[01:01.250] If you really are my brother then you’d better start to pray
[01:07.371] For the sins of those departed and the ones about to go
[01:12.966] There’s a dark cloud just above us, don’t tell me ‘cos I know
[01:19.643] I am not a humble pilgrim
[01:25.247] There’s no need to scrape and squeeze
[01:30.859] And don’t beg for silver paper
[01:36.743] When I’m trying to sell you cheese
[01:45.259]
[02:15.116] No, I never came from Kansas, don’t forget to thank the cook
[02:21.007] Which reminds me of my duty: I was lost and now I look
[02:26.858] For the turnings and the signpost and the road which takes you down
[02:32.494] To that pool inside the forest in whose waters I shall drown
[02:39.170] I am not a humble pilgrim
[02:44.761] There’s no need to scrape and squeeze
[02:50.364] And don’t beg for silver paper
[02:56.504] When I’m trying to sell you cheese

[00:01.743] 恶魔来自堪萨斯 他去了哪里我不能说
[00:07.341] 虽然我教书但我不是传教士 我的目标是要活下去
[00:13.760] 有只猴子骑在我的背上 已经有段时间了
[00:19.648] 他说他很了解我 但他不是我的朋友
[00:26.026] 我不是卑微的朝圣者
[00:31.895] 没必要想方设法 绞尽脑汁
[00:37.207] 当我向你兜售奶酪时
[00:43.900] 不要祈求钞票多少如果你真的是我的兄弟那你最好开始祈祷
