Well I walked to town in the pouring rain 嗯，我在倾盆大雨走到镇

Paid my fare and I rode that train 付了车费，我骑着列车

To the station under the avenue 到大街站下

Hit the air at the stroke of noon 打到空中中午的行程

At the cross streets where I staked my claim 在十字路口，我赌我的要求

I played in tune with the winter rain 我打的东西和冬雨

Collecting dimes and dollar bills 收集硬币和钞票

While the noisy traffic played the fills 而嘈杂的交通起到了填充

   

And it's Christmas time in the city 而且它是圣诞节的时候在这个城市

When the air is filled with cheer 当空气中充满了欢呼

And the storefronts look this pretty only once a year 与店面这个漂亮的一年只有一次看

   

Well the vendors huddled and the taxis honked 以及厂商挤和的士狂按喇叭

As I played for change beneath the neon clock 至于我打了变化霓虹灯下的时钟

Was dressed up looking like a Christmas tree 穿着看起来像圣诞树

Blinking down on that busy street 在这繁忙的街道闪烁下来

When the crowd thinned out and the rain had quit 当人群散去了，雨也已经放弃

And my fingers felt cold and stiff 我的手指感到冰冷僵硬

I took their money and I closed my case 我把他们的钱，我收我的情况

And I headed back towards home again 而我回到家里对再

   

And it's Christmas time in the city 而且它是圣诞节的时候在这个城市

When the air is filled with cheer 当空气中充满了欢呼

As I walked back to the subway stairs 当我走回地铁楼梯

I had twenty eight dollars in change for fare 我有28美元的变化车费

There was an old bag lady with an outstretched hand 有一个老太婆老太太伸出手

And a small Salvation Army band 和小救世军乐队

Playing Angels We Have Heard on High 玩天使我们听到关于高

The First Noel and O Holy Night 第一诺埃尔和圣善夜

I folded up one dollar bill í折叠起来一美元的钞票

And I tucked it down into the till 我卷起下来到钱柜
