My mama always told me better than to play with a loaded gun
我妈妈总是告诉我最好别拿着上膛的枪
If I'd've just listened to her she had never had a prisoner for a son
如果我听了她的话她的儿子就不会沦为阶下囚
The picture's still in front of my eyes the echo in my ears
画面依然在我眼前回荡在我耳边
When the jury said he's guilty and the judge said ninety-nine years
陪审团说他有罪法官说判他九十九年
Oh for ninety-nine years I'll watch the sunrise over that same old sea
九十九年之后我会在这片古老的大海上看日出
Ninety-nine years nothing but an empty cell for company
九十九年过去了空荡荡的牢房里只有陪伴
Yet there's not very much that stands between me and the freedom I hold dear
然而我和我珍惜的自由之间并没有什么阻碍
Just a thousand bars a big brick wall and a sentence of ninety-nine years
一千小节一堵高墙判九十九年监禁
I kissed my darling on her tender lips and they took me by the hand
我亲吻我的爱人她温柔的唇她牵着我的手
I had a nice little ride on a ferry boat to the rock where the prison stands
我在渡船上度过了一段愉快的时光来到监狱所在的岩石上
The warden said as he locked the door I hope you'll like it here
监狱长锁上门说我希望你会喜欢这里
Just make yourself a home you're gonna be with us ninety-nine years
给你自己一个家你会和我们在一起九十九年
I've almost forgotten what my real name is been a number for so long
我几乎忘记了我真正的名字长久以来我就是一个数字
Making little bitty rocks out of great big rocks gets old as the days wear on
用大石头做点小石头随着时间的流逝变得老套
But I'll do my best for ninety-nine years just try to stay alive
但99年我会拼尽全力只求好好活着
Cause the Governor said if I'd be good I'd get out in ninety-five
因为州长说如果我表现好我会在九十五年内出狱
Oh for ninety-nine years I'll watch the sunrise over that same old sea
九十九年之后我会在这片古老的大海上看日出
Ninety-nine years nothing but an empty cell for company
九十九年过去了空荡荡的牢房里只有陪伴
Yet there's not very much that stands between me and the freedom I hold dear
然而我和我珍惜的自由之间并没有什么阻碍
Just a thousand bars a big brick wall and a sentence of ninety-nine years
一千小节一堵高墙判九十九年监禁
