When the hot September sun down in Texas 当炎热的九月的阳光下在德州

Has sucked the streams bone dry 已经吸流干骨

And turned to roads to dust? 转身道路尘土？

In the sleepy little towns down in Texas, 在沉睡的小城镇在德州，

The shades are all pulled down; 色调都被拉下来;

The streets are all rolled up. 街道都卷起。

The only thing that breaks the silence 打破沉默的唯一的事

Are the trucks a-passin' by 是卡车， passin 由

And late at night on the front porch swing 晚上的前廊摆晚

You can hear a mournful sigh 你可以听到一个悲伤的叹息

The lonesome whippoorwill cries to the stars above 孤独的夜鹰哭到天上的星星

He was callin' out for his lady love 他呼唤出他的夫人爱

She's been gone so long 她已经走了这么久

   

I was just talkin' to the moon 我只是在说月球

Hopin' someday soon that I'd be over 希望有一天很快，我会结束

The memory of you 你的记忆

Too hard to hold 太硬屏

   

And the wind across the plains 而在平原风

Is all that now remains 是现在都仍然是

   

The night shakes loose the names 夜间震动松动的名字

But they never quite go back the way they came 但是，他们从来没有完全回到他们来时的路

   

So, goodbye rodeo 所以，再见了圈地

It's a long, funny way for a man to go 这是一个漫长的，有趣的方式为一个人去

And never change? 并不会改变？

And never change at all 并不会改变各

   

I was just talkin' to the moon 我只是在说月球

Hopin' someday soon that I'd be over 希望有一天很快，我会结束

The memory of you- too hard to hold on 你 - 记忆太难举行

   

I was just talkin' to the moon 我只是在说月球

Hopin' someday soon that I'd be over the memory of you 希望有一天很快的，我会在你的记忆
