歌词
John Wesley Harding
约翰·韦斯利·哈丁
Was a friend to the poor
是穷人的朋友
He trav'led with a gun in ev'ry hand
他双手握枪 闯荡四方
途径这个村子
All along this countryside
他打开了一扇又一扇门
He opened a many a door
但从未有人听说
But he was never known
他杀害过一个老实人
To hurt a honest man.
就在切尼县里
一度有人谈论
It was down in Chaynee County
他身边的女人
A time they talk about
他立马表态否认
With his lady by his side
具体情况很快
He took a stand
便真相大白
因为他总为人称道
And soon the situation there
乐于伸出援助之手
Was all but straightened out
当抓他的电报传来
For he was always known
他的大名仍久久回响
To lend a helping hand.
但没有任何证据
他们无法将他拘捕
All across the telegraph
周围也没有一个男人
His name it did resound
能够尾随他并将之放倒
But no charge held against him
从未有人听说
Could they prove
他会让傻瓜如影随形呢
And there was no man around
Who could track or chain him down
He was never known
To make a foolish move.
