The Only One I Know (Cowboy Life)
Another Jake brake wakes me up to a hotel lobby coffee cup
今天到我轮休了,坐在酒店大堂里捧着咖啡迷迷糊糊
That dirty old white pickup truck with the trailer hooked up by the Denny's, she's mine
窗外,那辆停在Denny's旁的白色旧皮卡,后面还拖着个小车,就是我的宝贝
Last night's bugs on the windshield, fast food trash on the dash meal
昨夜高速上撞到的虫子还在挡风玻璃上,仪表盘前的快餐垃圾也还没有扔掉
Speedin' ticket and a doctor bill from a gash I got from a short go in Casper
那还放了张超速罚单和医院账单,上次去Casper办事不小心划了道口子
Summer of last year, maybe next year
好像是去年夏天的事情了,呵,也许明年还会发生吧
And I ride, and I fall, one day I might win 'em all
上马,下马,也许有天就能成为人上人
Just some broken hearts and broken bones, and a hell of a whole lot of bein' alone
其实,我的生活就是分分合合,遍体鳞伤,除了孤单剩下就没有东西了
But I ride, and I roam, where I hang my hat is home
但是我依旧骑着马游荡着,只要能挂我帽子的地方就是家
This cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know
这样的牛仔生活也许会要了我的命,但我只知道这样的活法
Cell phone was breakin' up, the night she called to say she'd had enough
那天晚上她打电话给我,要分手
Of my little white lies and little white lines and wantin' somebody who could never be with her
说她受够了我的台词和谎言,还有我自私无理的要求
I look back on every fork in the road that I took to chase that buckle of gold
回想以前在人生的分叉路口徘徊,好像最后选的都是偏往钱财的那条
And wonder if what I held for what I hold is worth tradin' away
看着我现在所拥有的,想知道我以前牺牲掉的东西是否值得
Hell I don't know, all I know
唉,我不知道,我只知道,
Is I ride, and I fall, one day I might win 'em all
每天上马,下马,也许有天就能成为人上人
Just some broken hearts and broken bones, and a hell of a whole lot of bein' alone
生活就是分分合合,遍体鳞伤,除了孤单剩下就没有东西了
But I ride, and I roam, where I hang my hat is home
但是我依旧骑着马游荡着,只要能挂我帽子的地方就是家
This cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know
这样的牛仔生活也许会要了我的命,但我只知道这样的活法
Yeah it'll kill me, before it ever lets me go
是啊,有天我会因它而去,也许就是明天
It'll kill me, but it's the only life I know
但是我只知道这样的生活
And I'd rather die than be caught cryin'
相比被别人看到我哭泣,我宁愿就这样孤单地死去
So I'm just smilin', wear my hat down low
所以我就微笑着,把帽子往下压
Wear my hat down low
往下压
And I ride, and I fall, one day I might win 'em all
上马,下马,也许有天就能成为人上人
Just some broken hearts and broken bones, and a hell of a whole lot of bein' alone
分分合合,遍体鳞伤,孤单就是唯一的陪伴
But I ride, and I roam, where I hang my hat is home
但是我依旧骑着马游荡着,只要能挂我帽子的地方就是家
This cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know
这样的牛仔生活也许会要了我的命,
Yeah this cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know
但我只知道这样的活法
