Well the night was deep and the night was dark 以及夜很深了，夜已深

And I was at the old dance-hall on the edge of town 而我在对城市边缘的老跳舞大厅

Some big ceremony was going down 一些大的仪式下去

Dancers writhed and squirmed and then, 舞者扭动着，扭动着身体，然后，

Came apart and then writhed again 来拆开，然后重新翻腾

Like squirming flies on a pin 像针蠕动苍蝇

In the heat and in the din 在散热和喧嚣

Yes, in the heat and in the din 是的，在热和喧嚣

I fell to thinking about brand new wife of mad John Finn 我又想着狂约翰·芬恩全新的妻子

   

Well, midnite came and clock did strike 那么， midnite来了，时钟没有罢工

And in she came, did John Finn's wife 而在她来了，做了约翰·芬恩的妻子

With legs like scissors and butcher's knives 双腿像剪刀和屠刀

A tattooed breast and flaming eyes 黥面乳腺癌和燃烧的眼睛

And a crimson carnation in her teeth 而在她的牙齿深红色的康乃馨

Carving her way through the dance floor 穿过舞池雕刻她的方式

And I'm standing over by the bandstand 而我的音乐台站在

Every eye gaping on John Finn's wife 每一双眼睛张开约翰·芬恩的妻子

Yeah, every eye gaping on John Finn's wife 是的，每双眼睛张开约翰·芬恩的妻子

   

Now John Finn's wife was something of a mystery 现在，约翰·芬恩的妻子一直是个谜

In a town where to share a sworn secret was a solemn duty 在一个小镇，共享一个秘密的宣誓是庄严的责任

I had brass knuckles and a bolo knife 我指节铜套和博洛刀

Over near the bandstand with John Finn's wife 在与约翰·芬恩的妻子演奏台附近

She got perfumed breasts and raven hair 她得到了芳香的乳房和乌黑的头发

Sprinkled with wedding confettis 撒上婚礼confettis

And a gang of garrotters were all giving me stares 和garrotters的帮派都让我的目光

Armed, as they were, with machetes 武装，因为他们，用大砍刀

And the night through the window was full of lights 而透过窗户夜晚充满灯

Winking and awatching at John Finns' wife 眨眼awatching约翰芬兰人的妻子

Next came the cops, all out on the town 接下来是警察，全部出城

But it don't look like no trouble there 但它并不像任何麻烦出现

As they head for the bar in their lumpy suits 当他们走向了酒吧的波诡云谲的西装

And I slip my hand between the thighs of John Finn's wife 我和我的滑手约翰·芬恩的妻子的大腿之间

And they seemed to yawn awake, her things 他们似乎打哈欠醒了，她的事情

It was a warm and very ferocious night 这是一个温暖的，很凶猛的夜

The moon full of blood and light 月亮满血和光

And my eyes grew small and my eyes grew tight 而我的眼睛长的小，我的眼睛从小紧

As I plotted in the ear of John Finns' wife 正如我在绘制约翰芬兰人的妻子的耳朵

   

Enter John Finn in his shrunken suit 在他的西装萎缩进入约翰·芬恩

With his quick black eyes and black cheroot 用他敏捷的黑眼睛和黑方头雪茄

With his filled-down teeth and a hobnail boot 随着他充满下来的牙齿和鞋钉启动

And his fists full of pistols in his pockets 而他的拳头全插在口袋里的手枪

Aiming at me and aiming at his wife 针对我，针对他的妻子

The band fall silent fearing for their lives 带落地无声担心自己的生命

And with fear in my guts like tangled twine 并与恐惧在我的肠子一样纠结缠绕

Cause all I got is brass knuckles and a bolo knife 因为我所得到的是指节铜套和博洛刀

And mad John Finns' wife is all 和疯狂的芬兰人约翰的妻子是所有

And the three of us walk out of the hall 而我们三人走出大厅

   

Now the night bore down upon us all 现在晚上在我们所有的孔向下

You could hear the crickets in the thickets call 你可以听到在丛林蟋蟀叫

And guns did flare and guns did bawl 和枪支做了眩光和枪支做了呶

And I planted my bolo knife in the neck 而我种我的大刀刀在脖子上

Of mad John Finn. I took his wretched life 狂约翰·芬恩。我把他的可怜的生活

Now I'm over near the bandstand 现在，我在附近的露天音乐台

Every hand moving on John Finns' wife 每手移动的约翰芬兰人的妻子

And John Finns' wife 约翰芬兰人的妻子

Took all the flowers down 把所有的花下来

From her hair 从她的头发

And threw them on the ground 和扔在地上

And the flies did hum 和苍蝇嗡嗡做

And the flies did buzz around 和苍蝇也嗡嗡围绕

Poor John Finn 可怜的约翰·芬恩

Lying dead upon the ground 在地上躺尸

Lying dead upon the ground 在地上躺尸
