Man in Black歌词完整版
Man In Black - Johnny Cash
Well you wonder why I always dress in black
啊,你想知道为什么我总穿着黑衣
Why you never see bright colors on my back
为什么你从没看见我亮色的衣服
And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone
为什么我总显出忧郁的神色
Well there's a reason for the things that I have on
啊,以下是我总穿黑衣的理由
I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down
我穿黑衣为了穷苦人和落魄的人
Livin' in the hopeless hungry side of town
为了生活无望,在城市饥饿边缘挣扎的人
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime
我穿黑衣为了长期在监狱服刑赎罪的犯人
But is there because he's a victim of the times
仅仅因为他是时代的牺牲品
I wear the black for those who never read
我穿黑衣为了那些人,他们从没读过书
Or listened to the words that Jesus said
或听过耶稣教所说的话
About the road to happiness through love and charity
关于那条通向幸福快乐的博爱大道
Why you'd think He's talking straight to you and me
为什么,你觉得他对你和我说得够真诚吗
Well we're doin' mighty fine I do suppose
喔,我想我们做得很好
In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes
在我们的闪闪发亮的轿车上和奇装异服上
But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back
但正是如此,我们得让自己想起那些畏缩不前的人
Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black
所以应该有个黑衣人站在前面
I wear it for the sick and lonely old
我穿黑衣为了那些病人和孤寡老人
For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold
为了那些不计后果,而悲惨遭遇,不被人们所同情的人
I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been
我穿黑衣为了悼念本能够活下来的生命
Each week we lose a hundred fine young men
每一周,我们都失去了一百个好样的年轻人
And I wear it for the thousands who have died
我穿黑衣还为了成数千已死去的人
Believen' that the Lord was on their side
相信上帝会站在他们一边
I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died
我穿黑衣为了另一百万已死去的人
Believen' that we all were on their side
相信我们都会站在他们一边
Well there's things that never will be right I know
喔,有些事情,我明白,决不会是公正的
And things need changin' everywhere you go
这些事情需要改变,在你去过的所有地方
But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right
除非我们开始采取行动把一些事情变得公正
You'll never see me wear a suit of white
不然,你永远不会看到我穿上一套雪白的衣服
Ah I'd love to wear a rainbow every day
啊,我也想每天穿得五彩斑斓
And tell the world that everything's OK
告诉这世界,一切平安
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back
我也在设法褪去身上的黑色
'Till things are brighter I'm the Man In Black
直到所有事情变得更加灿烂美好,我就是这样一个黑衣人
