Nebraska

I saw her standing on her front lawn just twirling her baton
我看見她站在家前面的草坪上，只是旋轉著警棍
Me and her went for a ride, sir, and ten innocent people died
我和她去兜風了，先生，於是十個無辜的人死了
From the town of Lincoln, Nebraska, with a sawed-off .410 on my lap
從內布拉斯加州的林肯鎮出發，腿上有一把410型號的削短型霰彈槍
Through to the badlands of Wyoming I killed everything in my path
一直開到懷俄明州的荒地，這一路我殺掉了所有遇見的
I cant say that Im sorry for the things that we done
我不能說“我為我們所做的事感到抱歉”這樣的假話
At least for a little while, sir, me and her we had us some fun
至少有一小會兒，先生，我和她，我們玩得很開心
The jury brought in a guilty verdict and the judge he sentenced me to death
陪審團做出了有罪的判決，法官判我死刑
Midnight in a prison storeroom with leather straps across my chest
午夜，在監獄的儲藏室裡，我胸前綁著皮革做的帶子
Sheriff, when the man pulls that switch, sir, and snaps my poor head back
警長，當那個人扳動開關，把我可憐的腦袋擰斷時
You make sure my pretty baby is sittin right there on my lap
你要確保漂亮的姑娘，當時坐在我的腿上

他們說我不適合生活，並說我的靈魂將被拋向了巨大的真空
They declared me unfit to live, said into that great void my sould be hurled
他們想知道我為什麼這麼做
They wanted to know why I did what I did
先生，我猜想在這世上，我只是一個卑鄙的人，僅此而已
Well, sir, I guess theres just a meanness in this world
