Uncle John's Band (2001 Remaster)

Well the first days are the hardest days,
好吧，第一天是最艰难的一天
Don't you worry any more,
难道你不再担心了吗
'Cause when life looks like easy street,
生活看上去像安乐街
there is danger at your door.
但危险却在你门前
Think this through with me,
和我一起想想这个问题吧
let me know your mind.
让我知道你的念头
Woh - oh, what I want to know,
我想知道
is are you kind?
你是否善良

一个跳雄鹿舞的人选择了我朋友
It's a buck dancer's choice my friend;
但最好问问我的意见
better take my advice.
你此刻已经知晓了所有规律
You know all the rules by now
比如火焰来自寒冰
and the fire from ice.
你会和我一起吗
Will you come with me,
还是独自离开
won't you come with me?
我想知道
Woh - oh, what I want to know,
你会和我一起吗
will you come with me?
天呐，我说

你看见那个湖了吗
Goddamn, well I declare,
他们的墙是用炮弹铸成的
have you seen the like?
他们的箴言对我并不适用
Their walls are built of cannonballs,
来听约翰叔叔的乐队吧
their motto is Don't tread on me.
和潮汐共舞
Come hear Uncle John's Band
和我一起，或是独自离开
playing to the tide,
他来带他的孩子们回家
come with me, or go alone.
这是乌鸦告诉我的同一个故事
He's come to take his children home
那个他知道的唯一的故事

就像你到来时的晨光
It's the same story the crow told me;
就像你离开时的清风
It's the only one he knows.
来不及仇恨
Like the morning sun you come
没时间等待
and like the wind you go.
我想知道
Ain't no time to hate,
时间流逝到何方
barely time to wait,
我住在一座银矿里
Woh - oh, what I want to know,
我叫它乞丐的坟墓
where does the time go?
我拿着一把小提琴

乞求你定调
I live in a silver mine
无论任何人选择
and I call it Beggar's Tomb;
我总能听到你的声音
I got me a violin
我想知道
and I beg you call the tune
歌声如何飘扬
Anybody's choice,
来听约翰叔叔的乐队吧
I can hear your voice.
就在河边
Woh - oh, what I want to know,
来听约翰叔叔的乐队吧
how does the song go?
就在升起的浪潮旁

来听约翰叔叔的乐队吧
Come hear Uncle John's Band
和潮汐共舞
by the riverside
和我一起，或是独自离开
Got some things to talk about,
他来带他的孩子们回家
here beside the risin' tide
我想知道
Come hear Uncle John's Band
歌声如何飘扬
playing to the tide,
来听约翰叔叔的乐队吧
Come on along, or go alone,
就在河边
He's come to take his children home.
找点话题聊聊

就在升起的浪潮旁
Woh - oh, what I want to know,
来听约翰叔叔的乐队吧
how does the song go?
和潮汐共舞

和我一起，或是独自离开
Come hear Uncle John's Band
他来带他的孩子们回家
by the riverside,
Got some things to talk about
here beside the risin' tide.
Come hear Uncle John's Band
playing to the tide,
come on along or go alone,
he's come to take his children home.
