I come down from Oklahoma with a pistol in my boot
我从俄克拉荷马一路南行，靴插手枪
A pair of dice, a deck of cards and a bible in my suit
外套里装着一对骰子，一副牌和一本圣经
I come here as the cause of tears, just a crying shame
我因耻于流泪来到此地
Seven stud or eternal blood, I'm looking for a game
七牌梭哈或是血拼，我寻找着牌局
I double crossed the State of Texas and it give me a little time

I taught myself to double cut the cards and hold scriptures in my mind

I learned to love the tumblin' dice and to believe the word
也学会享受骰子并笃信神示
Tombstones or rolling bones beats anything I ever heard
墓碑和滚动的骸骨强于听过的任何忠告
Patience is a virtue that I don't possess
耐心未曾是我拥有的品德
I can't deny that Heaven lies beneath a cotton dress
我也不能断定天堂不可能栖于小小的棉衣之下
How small a part of time we share till we hear the sound of wings
直到听到天使振翅时，才感叹相处的好景不长
I'm lost in the dust of the chase that my life brings
而我却迷失在追求生活扬起的尘土中，无法自拔
I have walked through God's green pastures beneath these rich blue skies
我曾走过上帝的牧场，头顶是蔚蓝天空
I seen the fall of man and the kingdom hidden from their eyes
也亲见人性的沦丧以及他们眼中看到的幻景
I have heard the roar of thunder and I've felt the lightening bolt
我曾听到雷鸣咆哮，感受过闪电冷厉
And when I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
而在我穿越笼罩着死亡阴影的山谷时
I take along Samuel Colt
随身也还揣着把柯尔特手枪
Every night I kiss the cards and I hold them to my breast
夜夜亲吻纸牌再拥它们入怀中
And when I see the king of hearts I know that I am blessed
当看到红心K时我就知自己受神庇佑
And though my eyes are blind sometimes I know there's something there
尽管有时我目光短浅，却也明白神一直在看
So when the times at hand and I kill a man I
因此在闲暇或是杀人时，我……
I say a little prayer
我都会稍作祈祷
So I come down from Oklahoma with a pistol in my boot
我从俄克拉荷马一路南行，靴插手枪
A pair of dice a deck of cards a Bible in my suit
外套里装着一对骰子，一副牌和一本圣经
How small a part of time we share till we hear the sound of wings
直到听到天使振翅时，才感叹相处的好景不长
I am lost in the dust of the chase that my life brings
而我却迷失在追求生活扬起的尘土中，无法自拔
How small a part of time we share till we hear the sound of wings
直到听到天使振翅时，才感叹相处的好景不长
I am lost in the dust of the chase that my life brings
而我却迷失在追求生活扬起的尘土中，无法自拔
