Jesse James Symphony

Jesse James is running
傑西詹姆斯正在奔跑
And he'll never be at rest
他永遠不止息
Till the day they fold his arms across his chest
直到葬禮上人們把他的雙臂交叉疊在胸前
He's a long way from the cradle
他已經脫離搖籃許久
And his ma's authority
也擺脫了媽媽的權威
But it only seems a minute
但是距離離開床上
Since he stood over his bed
似乎只有一分鐘而已
And she tried to tell him something
她想告訴他一些事情
Now what the hell was it she said
但她到底說了什麼？
Jesse James is thinking of the breaks he never had
傑西詹姆斯正在考慮他從來沒有嘗試過的休息
And the gene that cursed his blood group rhesus-bad
以及使他的血型變壞的基因
Jesse James lived money
傑西詹姆斯擁有的錢
His account was in the black
還綽綽有餘
Till the day he stopped a bullet with his back
直到有一天他用背部頂住了一顆子彈
Well the zip cose may read vegas
這拉鍊的名字可以叫做vegas
But the heart beats tupelo
但是tupelo的心臟在跳動
And a footstep is such a small thing
腳步聲很小
That it's neither here nor there
不在這裡也不在那裡
Till you string those steps together
直到你把這些步伐串到一起
And find home is way back, way back where?
發現家的回頭路，走向何處？
Jesse James was never
傑西詹姆斯的生活
Part of lifes great symphony
從來不是偉大的交響曲一部分
All he heard were penny whistles out of key
他所聽到的只不過是走調的口哨聲
Jesse James he promised:
傑西詹姆斯保證：
I will never die afraid
'我永遠不會死於恐懼
That boy perjured every vow he ever made
但那男孩最終違背了他的每一個誓言
