I rode out of Kansas City, going south to Mexico 我骑着堪萨斯城出来，南下到墨西哥

I was running dodging danger,left the girl that I loved so 我跑避开危险，离开了那个我喜欢这样的女孩

Far behind lay Kansas City and the past that I had earned 远远落后奠定堪萨斯城和过去，我已经赚了

Twenty notches on my six gun marked the lessons I had learned 在我6枪二十缺口标志着我所学到的经验教训

   

Many times I sold my fast gun for a place to lay my head 很多时候，我卖我的快枪换一个地方把我的头

Till the nights began to haunt me by the men that I left dead 直到晚上就开始了，我离开了死的男人缠着我

Couldn't stand it any longer with the life that I'd begun 无法用生命忍受下去了，我会开始

So I said good-bye to Jeannie and became a running gun 所以我说再见珍妮，成为一个正在运行的枪

   

I rode into Amarillo as the sun sank in the west 我骑马到阿马里洛的太阳在西部沉没

My thoughts in Kansas City and the girl that I love best 我在堪萨斯城和女孩的想法，我的爱最好

As I smiled and kissed her gently and then turned away to go 我微微一笑，轻轻地吻她，然后转身走了走

Said I'd send for her to meet me when I reached old Mexico 说我送她来接我，当我到达墨西哥的老

   

I had barely left the saddle and my foot just touched the ground 我几乎离开了马鞍和我的脚刚着地

When a cold voice from the shadows told me not to turn around 当从阴影中一个冰冷的声音告诉我不要掉头

Said he knew about my fast gun, knew the price paid by the law 说他知道我的快枪，知道用法律付出的代价

Challenged by a bounty hunter, so I turned around to draw 一名赏金猎人的挑战，所以我转身画

   

I knew someday I'd meet him, for his hand like lightning flashed 我知道有一天我会和他见面，因为他的手像闪电闪过

My own gun stood in leather as his bullet tore its path 在革自己的枪站在他的子弹撕碎它的路径

As my strength was slowly fading, I could see him walk away 由于我的力量慢慢褪色，我能看到他走开

And I knew that where I lie today, he too must lie some day 我知道，我今天说谎，他也必须位于某一天

   

Now a crowd is slowly gathering but my eyes are growing dim 现在，人群慢慢聚集，但我的眼睛渐渐模糊

And my thoughts return to Jeannie and the home that we had planned 而我的思绪回到了珍妮，而我们已经计划了家

Oh please tell her, won't you mister, that she's still the only one 哦，请你告诉她，你会不会老总，她是我的唯一

But a woman's love is wasted when she loves a running gun 但是，当她爱上一个运行枪的女人的爱是浪费
