Last Of My Kind
I couldnt be happy in the city at night
晚上在城裡我不會快樂的
You cant see the stars for the neon light
燈紅酒綠處難見星月
sidewalks dirty and the rivers worse
人行道臟的噁心河流更是黯淡無光
The underground trains all run in reverse
地鐵都在逆流而行
Nobody here can dance like me
在這一帶我舞技過人
Everybodys clapping on the one and the three
人們為一號三號歡呼著
Am I the last of my kind
看起來我已孤身一人
Am I the last of my kind
看起來我是如此可憐
So many people with so much to do
人多了事也雜
The winters so cold my hands turn blue
數九寒天裡我手都凍紫了
Old men sleeping on the filthy ground
老人們枕著骯髒的地板入眠
They spend their whole day just walking around
他們整天四處遊蕩
Nobody else here seems to care
這裡世態炎涼且無人問津
They walk right past then like they aint even there
他們從你身邊經過就像和靈魂擦肩而過
Am I the last of my kind
那麼我是否已孑然一身
Am I the last of my kind
那麼我是否已形影相吊
Daddy said the river would aways lead me home
爸爸說河流指引我歸家的路途
But the river cant take me back in time
但河流卻不能及時帶我回來
And daddys dead and gone
爸爸便離我而去了
The family farms a parking lot for Waltons five and dime
家裡的農場成了沃爾頓的廉價停車場
Am I the last of my kind
可能知己難尋
Am I the last of my kind
可能緣薄命淺
I tried to go to college but I didnt belong
我想上大學但這沒有我的容身之處
Everything I said was either funny or wrong
所以我一介草莽人微言輕
They laughed at my boots laughed at my jeans
他們對我評頭論足笑我披裘帶索
Laughed when they gave me amphetamines
又大笑著給我安非他明(苯丙胺毒品的一種)
Left me along in a bad part of town
把我留在魚龍混雜的小鎮一隅
thirtysix hours to come back down
三十六個小時下來
Am I the last of my kind
只有我是形影單只
Am I the last of my kind
只有我和烈酒孤燈
Mama says God wont give you too much to bear
媽媽說上帝不會讓你承受太多的
That might be true in Arkansas
在阿肯色州這是句真話
But Im a long long way from there
但我還有漫漫長路要走
That whole worlds a lonely faded picture in my mind
而我眼裡只看得到一個黯淡失色的世界
Am I the last of my kind
是啊我成了特立獨行的那個
Am I the last of my kind
是啊像我這樣的人絕無僅有
Am I the last of my kind
是的我是如此格格不入
Am I the last of my kind
是啊沒人和我一樣了
