I saw a billboard about this rodeo

This weekend out in El Paso

So I signed up to ride

I drew a bull called Original Sin

I heard he'd killed a couple of men
听说它已经要了几个人的命
Thinkin' this was somethin' I could win
想着这么着我差不多能赢
Cause the devil was on my side
因为这头魔鬼将与我同行
I was havin' myself one hell of a ride
我在鬼门关做了个客
But I ended up disqualified
但是到最后都没合格
That old bull just up and died
那头天杀的老牛去了西天
Before they blew the whistle
在他们吹哨之前
With them north Texas blues
听着北德克萨斯的蓝调
Thought I'd paid all my dues
想着我得把帐都给还掉
Then them south Texas blues
然后南德州的蓝调那些家伙
Told me son you ain't through
告诉我,小子,你还没听过
Had the east Texas blues
东德克萨斯蓝调
And the west Texas too
和西德克萨斯蓝调的歌
I've done all I know to do

Tryin' to lose, tryin' to lose
试着摆脱,试着摆脱
These old lone star blues

Well I got laid off at Brown & Root

Well there ain't no jobs here workin' cattle
那儿又没啥跟牛打交道的活儿
So I got on part time haulin' gravel

With some outfit from Seattle

Turned in the key and hit the road

You never know I might get lucky

Well I got a friend there turning knobs
