When I die Lord won't you put my soul up on a train 当我死的主，你不把我的灵魂上火车

Won't you send it southbound 你会不会南行发送

Give it a cool blues-man name 给它一个很酷的蓝色人的名字

I've been lost on them back roads so many times, I've gone blind 我已经失去了他们回来的道路了这么多次，我已经瞎了

Losing faith in my family had driven me out of my damn mind 失去信心，我的家人也赶逐我离开了我那该死的心灵

   

But on the south side of heaven won't you take me home 但天上南侧你不带我回家

Cause I've been broke down for so long and Lord, it's getting cold 因为我已经崩溃了这么久和主，它越来越冷

   

I've been a desperado in West Texas for so long Lord, I need a change 我已经在西德克萨斯州亡命之徒了这么久的主，我需要改变

For ten long years this old place ain't seen a drop of rain 10多年来，这个老地方不见一滴雨

And that wind blows everyday Lord, all like a desert snow 和风吹每天主，都像沙漠雪

Like a lost bound train running on cocaine and outta control 就像可卡因和失去控制运行失去了方向的列车

   

But on the south side of heaven won't you take me home 但天上南侧你不带我回家

Cause I've been broke down for so long and Lord, it's getting cold 因为我已经崩溃了这么久和主，它越来越冷

   

Long down the Louisiana byways 长久下来路易斯安那州小道

Lonesome highways roll on 寂寞公路上滚

Won't you take me where the poor man lives 你不带我去那里的穷人生活

Its where I call my home 它在那里我打电话给我的家

And can't you see that a breeze, nothin' but a change in pace 而你看不到的微风，没什么只是在节奏的变化

Money can't buy my soul, cause it comes from a hard earned place 金钱买不来我的灵魂，因为它来自于一个辛苦赚来的地方

   

But on the south side of heaven won't you take me home 但天上南侧你不带我回家

Cause I've been broke down for so long and Lord, it's getting cold 因为我已经崩溃了这么久和主，它越来越冷
