Long Gone Lonesome Blues
I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by;
我跑到河边看鱼儿畅游
But I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die..., Oh Lord!
但我到达那条河时,寂寞难耐...哦我的天呐
And then I jumped in the river,
然后我跳进河里
but the doggone river was dry.
但那该死的河已干涸
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue.
她早就走了,现在我寂寞忧伤
I had me a woman who couldn't be true.
我有了个女人,但名不副实
She made me for my money and she made me blue.
她赚了我好多钱,她让我郁闷
A man needs a woman that he can lean on,
男人需要一个他可以依靠的女人
But my leanin' post is done left and gone.
但我依靠的人已疲倦而离去
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue.
她早已走了,现在我寂寞而忧郁
I'm gonna find me a river, one that's cold as ice.
我要找一条河,冷得像冰一样的那条河
And when I find me that river, Lord I'm gonna pay the price, Oh Lord!
当我找到那条河,天呐,我会付出代价
I'm goin' down in it three times,
我要来三次
but Lord I'm only comin up twice.
但天呐,我只来了二次
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue.
她早已走了,现在我寂寞忧伤
She told me on Sunday she was checkin' me out;
她星期天告诉我,她退房离开我
Long about Monday she was nowhere about.
整个星期一不知道她在何方
And here it is Tuesday, ain't had no news.
到了星期二,还是杳无音讯
I got them gone but not forgotten blues.
我要忘掉这些,但我无法忘掉忧伤
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue.
她早已走了,现在我寂寞忧伤
