Angel from Montgomery (Edit) [Live at the Arie Crown Theater, Chicago, January, 1985]

主人声 : Bonnie Raitt
我，一个老姑娘

随了母亲的名
I am an old woman
我的父亲
Named after my mother
则像个老顽童
My old man is another
如果梦想是惊雷
Child that's grown old
期望是电闪
If dreams were thunder
那我家这老房子该早就烧垮了
And lightning was desire
让我变成天使吧
This old house would've burnt down a long time ago
从蒙哥马利市飞来的天使
Make me an angel
给我一张竞技老牛仔的海报吧
That flies from Montgomery
只求给我一样东西
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
让我能坚持信念的东西
Just give me one thing
来让我相信人生本就该如此艰难
That I can hold on to
当我还是个少女时
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
爱上了一个牛仔

他没什么特别之处
When I was a young girl
就是个自由不羁的男人
I had me a cowboy
但这都是过去的事了
He wouldn't much to look at
无论我作何努力
He's a free ramblin' man
都阻止不了时间流逝
But that was a long time
就像阻止不了决堤的坝
No matter how I try
让我变成天使吧
The years just flow by
从蒙哥马利市飞来的天使
Like a broken-down dam
给我一张竞技老牛仔的海报吧

只求给我一样东西
Make me an angel
让我能坚持信念的东西
That flies from Montgomery
来让我相信人生本就该如此艰难
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
厨房的苍蝇
Just give me one thing
全在嗡嗡乱叫
That I can hold on to
醒来到现在 我什么都没做
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
怎么也想不通

一个人早晨去上班
There's flies in the kitchen
傍晚下班回到家
I can hear all there buzzin'
居然没什么可说的
And I ain't done nothing since I woke up today
让我变成天使吧
How the hell can a person
从蒙哥马利市飞来的天使
Go to work in the morning
给我一张竞技老牛仔的海报吧
Come home in the evening
只求给我一样东西
And have nothing to say
让我能坚持信念的东西

来让我相信人生本就该如此艰难
Make me an angel
来让我相信人生本就该如此艰难
That flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing
That I can hold on to
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go

To believe in this living Is just a hard way to go
