Written by:Don Schlitz
On a warm summer's evenin'
在一个温暖夏夜
On a train bound for nowhere
乘着不知目的地的列车
I met up with a gambler
我遇到一个赌徒
We were both too tired to sleep
我们都筋疲力尽难以入眠
So we took turns a starin'
所以我们轮流注视着彼此
Out the window at the darkness
望着窗外的黑暗
Boredom overtook us
厌倦占据了我们的心
And he began to speak
他开始说话
He said son I've made a life
他说孩子我创造了人生
Out of readin' people's faces
再也无法看透别人的脸
Knowin' what the cards were
我知道底牌是什么
By the way they held their eyes
顺便说一句他们目不转睛地盯着我
So if you don't mind my sayin'
所以如果你不介意我说的话
I can see you're out of aces
我知道你没有王牌
For a taste of your whiskey
只为品尝你的威士忌
I'll give you some advice
我会给你一些建议
So I handed him my bottle
于是我把酒瓶递给他
And he drank down my last swallow
他喝光了我最后一口酒
Then he bummed a cigarette
他抽了一支烟
And asked me for a light
向我要一盏灯
And the night got deathly quiet
夜晚变得死寂
And his face lost all expression
他面无表情
He said if
他说如果
You're gonna play the game boy

You gotta learn to play it right
你得学会好好表现
You got to know

When to hold 'em

Know when to walk away

You never count your money

When you're sittin' at the table

There'll be time enough for countin'

Every gambler knows

The secret to survivin'

Is knowin' what to throw away
就是知道该放弃什么
And knowin' what to keep

'Cause every hand's a winner
因为每一只手都是赢家
And every hand's a loser
每个人都输得一败涂地
And the best that you can hope for
你可以期待最好的结果
Is to die in your sleep
就是在你的睡梦中死去
And when he finished speakin'
当他说完话
He turned back toward the window
他转过身去对着窗户
Crushed out his cigarette
掐灭他的香烟
And faded off to sleep
渐渐入睡
And somewhere in the darkness
在黑暗中的某个地方
The gambler he broke even

And in his final words I found
在他的遗言中我发现
An ace that I could keep
