I've been riding on this train 我已经坐上这列火车

Drinking whiskey for the pain 喝威士忌的痛苦

Another good ol' boy going home 另一个好醇男孩回家

And every town I see 而每一个城镇喔

Seems to take a part of me 似乎要把我的一部分

That's the price that you pay when you roam 这就是当你漫游，你付出的代价

   

[Chorus:] [合唱： ]

Well I cry when I have to 嗯，我哭的时候我一定要

And I lie when I can 我撒谎时，我可以

But I die a little slower 但是我死慢一点

On the train to Birmingham 在火车去伯明翰

   

I got holes in both my shoes 我得到了我的两个鞋孔

And a guitar full of blues 而一个完整的蓝调吉他

And a one way ticket for a remedy 和单程票的补救措施

It's the same ol' lonesome song 这是同样的醇寂寞的歌

I've been singing all night long 我一直在唱一整夜

Hey, porter, are we out of Tennessee? 嘿，搬运工，都是我们出田纳西？

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

   

Well every year I ride this train 好吧我每年都坐这趟车

To Alabama in the rain 阿拉巴马州在雨中

When I get that lonesome feelin' in my bones 当我得到了我的骨头是寂寞的感觉

I never get to Birmingham 我从来没有去伯明翰

But gettin' there ain't the plan 但刚开了没有计划

I just like the feel of going home 我只是喜欢回家的感觉

   

[Chorus] [合唱]
