Seen the arrow on the door post saying This land is condemned
我看见门柱上的箭头上面写着这片土地被诅咒了
All the way from New Orleans to Jerusalem
一路从新奥尔良到耶路撒冷
I traveled through East Texas where many martyrs fell
我穿过德克萨斯州东部许多烈士倒下了
And I know one thing nobody can sing them blues like Blind Willie McTell
我知道一件事没有人能像盲人WillieMcTell一样唱布鲁斯
Well I heard the hoot owl singing as they were taking down the tents
我听到猫头鹰在歌唱他们在拆帐篷
The stars above all the barren trees were his only audience
他唯一的听众就是光秃秃的树木上的星辰
Yeah them charcoal gypsy maidens can strut their feathers well
那些浑身漆黑的吉普赛姑娘可以趾高气昂地炫耀自己的财富
And I know one thing nobody can sing them blues like Blind Willie McTell
我知道一件事没有人能像盲人WillieMcTell一样唱布鲁斯
See them big plantations a burning can't you hear the cracking of the whips
看着那些大种植园一片狼藉你是否听到了枪声
Smell that sweet magnolia blossom blooming see the ghosts of the slavery ships
闻到木兰花绽放的香气看见奴隶船的残骸
Well I can hear them tribes a moanin' I can hear the undertaker's bell
我可以听见他们部落的呻吟我可以听到殡仪馆的钟声
And I know one thing nobody can sing them blues like Blind Willie McTell

There's a woman she's standing by the river she is with some fine young handsome man
有个女人站在河边她和一个年轻英俊的男人在一起
See he's all dressed just like a squire he's got bootleg whiskey in his hand
你看他打扮得就像个绅士手里拿着走私的威士忌酒
Yeah there's a chain gang out on the highway and I can hear them rebels yell
高速路上有一帮人带着金链子我听到他们的呐喊
And I know one thing nobody can sing them blues like Blind Willie McTell
我知道一件事没有人能像盲人WillieMcTell一样唱布鲁斯
God oh God is in Heaven and we all want what is His
上帝啊上帝在天堂我们都渴望得到上帝的东西
But the power and greed the corruptible seed seems to be all that there is
