The Wreck Of The Old '97 - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

They gave him his orders at Monroe Virginia

他们对Monroe Virginia发号施令

Said Steve you're way behind time

说Steve已经落伍了

This is not 38 this is Old '97

这不是38,而是老式97枪

Put her into Spencer on time

让她准时到斯宾塞

Then he turned around and said to his black greasy fireman

然后他转身对胖胖的黑人锅炉工说

Hey Shovel on a little more coal

多加点煤

And when we cross that White Oak mountain

当我们开过白象山

Watch Old 97 roll

看着97枪

It's a mighty rough road from Lynchburg to Danville

从林奇堡到丹维尔道路起伏不平

With a line on a three mile grade

路线长达3英尺

It was on that grade that he lost his air brakes see

在路上,他刹车失灵

What a jump he made

吓了一大跳

He was going down the grade making 90 miles

他以90迈的速度沿着这条街行驶

An hour his whistle broke into a scream

口哨变成了尖叫声

He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle

人们在废墟中发现他,手还在蒸汽阀上

Scalded to death by the steam

被蒸汽烫得面目全非

Now all you ladies you'd better take a warning

女士们要从中得到警示

From this time on and learn

吸取教训

Never speak hard words to your true-loving husband

不要和你珍爱的丈夫说狠话

He may leave you and never return

他会离开你,不再回来
