When you go to work well you work like the devil
当你工作的时候你就像恶魔一样拼命
At the end of the week you're not on the level
到了周末你就不再理智了
Payday comes you ain't got a penny
发薪日到来你身无分文
'Cause when you pay your bills you got so many
因为当你付清账单时你有好多钱
I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will
我会忍饥挨饿每个人都会
'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill
因为你无法在棉纺厂谋生
When you buy clothes on easy terms
当你以轻松的条件买衣服时
Collector treats you like a measly worm
收藏家把你当做微不足道的小虫
One dollar down and the Lord knows
只差一美元上帝知道
If you can't make a payment
如果你无法付款
They take your clothes
他们拿走你的衣服
I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will
我会忍饥挨饿每个人都会
'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill
因为你无法在棉纺厂谋生
Payday comes you pay your rent
发薪日到了你得付房租
End of the week you ain't got a cent
到了周末你就身无分文了
To buy fat-backed meat pinto beans
去买肥背肉和豆子
Cook up a mess o' turnip greens
准备一点萝卜青菜
I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will
我会忍饥挨饿每个人都会
'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill
因为你无法在棉纺厂谋生
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
尘归尘土归土
Let the rich man live and the poor man bust
让富人活下去让穷人活下去
We'll never make it we never will
我们永远不会成功
As long as we work in a rounding mill
只要我们在四舍五入的工厂里工作
I'm a-gonna starve and everybody will
我会忍饥挨饿每个人都会
'Cause you can't make a livin' in a cotton mill
因为你无法在棉纺厂谋生
