The River Just Knows

4 a.m. comes awful early
凌晨4點來得可真早
And I was dead on my feet

But if you're gonna catch the biggest fish
但是如果你要釣到最大的魚
You gotta lose a little sleep

I packed my gear and a couple beers
我收拾好行裝，喝了幾杯啤酒
And I headed for my favorite spot
便朝我最喜歡的地方走去
But I cursed my luck

When I saw his truck

Right where
就在那裡
I pulled off

Was hopin' to have the river to myself that day

Cause the river don't talk

The river don't care
河水不會在乎
Where you've been
你去了哪裡
What you've done
你做了什麼事
Or why it is you're standin' there
或者是你為什麼站在那裡
It just rolls on by
它就這樣滾滾而過
Whisperin' to your soul
對著你的靈魂低語
It's gonna be alright
一切都會好起來的
The river just knows

The way the sun bounced off the water

I could hardly make him out

But I could see he had a fish on
但我看得出他有一條魚
A big ol' rainbow trout
一條大的彩虹鱒魚
The fight went on forever

And as they headed down my way

I saw his military haircut

And the new scars on his face

He held the fish down in the water

And he coaxed it back to life

Welcome home'
