I asked my love to take a walk 我问我的爱散步

Just to walk just a little way 只需走一点点路

As we talked of our future wedding day 当我们谈到我们未来结婚的日子

And when she said she could never be mine 而当她说她永远是我的

   

I placed a knife against her breast 我把刀子在她的乳房

As into my arms she pressed 由于扑进我的怀里，她按下

She cried oh please don't murder me 她哭了哦，请不要杀了我

I'm not prepared for eternity 我不是永恒准备

   

Only say that you'll be mine 只能说你会是我的

In no other arms entwined 在纠缠没有其他的武器

Down beside where the waters flow 倒在那里河水流旁

Down by the banks of the Ohio 走在俄亥俄州的银行

   

I started home tween twelve and one 我开始在家吐温12和1

I cried my God what have I done 我哭了，我的上帝我做了什么

I've killed the only one I loved 我杀了唯一一个我喜欢

Because she would not be my bride 因为她不会成为我的新娘

   

Only say that you'll be mine 只能说你会是我的

In no other arms entwined 在纠缠没有其他的武器

Down beside where the waters flow 倒在那里河水流旁

Down by the banks of the Ohio 走在俄亥俄州的银行
