Highwayman

I was a highwayman, along the coach roads I did ride
我曾是一個攔路強盜，騎著馬等在海岸公路邊
With sword and pistol by my side
我一手握著劍，一手放在左輪上
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
太多少女因為我的職業，失去了她們閃閃發光的小飾品
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
太多士兵在我的利刃下流盡了生命之血
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
那幫混球把我綁了起來，那是我二十五歲的春天
But I am still alive
然而我活了下來
I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide
我曾是一名水手，生在波濤起伏中
And with the sea I did abide
我一直和海在一起
I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico
我駕駛著帆船，從好望角一路到墨西哥
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
我在狂風中爬向船頂，收起了主帆
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed
當桅杆折斷時，他們說我死了
But I am living still
然而我依舊頑強地活著
I was a dam builder, across the river deep and wide
我曾是大壩的建築者，穿行在又深又寬河流
Where steel and water did collide
就是那鋼鐵與激流碰撞的地方
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
那地方叫做博爾德，在科羅拉多的野外
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
我滑倒了，不幸落進了濕的混凝土中
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
他們把我埋葬在巨大的墳墓中，聽不見任何聲音
But I am still around, I'll always be around and around
然而我依然在這裡，我一直生龍活虎的在這裡
And around and around and around
就在這裡，就是這裡，一直在這裡
I fly a starship across the Universe divide
我駕駛著宇宙飛船，穿行在宇宙虛空間
And when I reach the other side
我到了另一邊
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
我將會找到一個地方，我可以在那裡徹底放鬆我的靈魂，如果我可以的話
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
或許我還選擇做回我的攔路強盜
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
或者我只做一滴獨自落下的雨
But I will remain and I'll be backagain
然而我永遠都會在這裡，我會回來的
And again and again and again and again
一次又一次，一次又一次
