Well, it sure don't seem like twenty years, 那么，它肯定似乎并不像二十多年来，

And I lived where I hated life day by day, 和我住，我​​一天讨厌生活的日子，

I see my baby stumblin' around with tears in her eyes 我看到我的宝贝stumblin “围绕着泪水在她的眼里

And as I reach out for her she falls on the floor 当我伸手为她，她跌倒在地上

She mumbles through bloody lips about a bad man, robber, raper, 她喃喃自语，通过对一个坏人，强盗，强奸犯嘴唇流血，

One night they threw me in with a man they called the mangler 一天晚上，他们把我扔在了一个男人，他们被称为压榨机
