Bottles and boxes and ten miles a day he walks slowly making his rounds 瓶子和箱子十里一天他走慢慢做他的发

Picking up bottles and boxes and papers and anything else we'd throw down 捡瓶子和包装盒和纸张以及其他任何我们就扔下

He's hump-backed and wrinkled but unlike Van Winkel he doesn't sleep his life away 他是驼背和皱纹的，但不像范·温克尔，他不睡寻欢

And he speaks so seldom that some of us wonder just what the old man has to say 和他说话这么少，有些我们不知道正是这位老人怎么说

Some folks laugh at him but he doesn't notice he goes right on bout his day 有些人嘲笑他，但他并没有注意到他去对上回合他的一天

Picking up bottles and boxes and papers and pieces of life thrown away 捡瓶子和包装盒和纸以及生活片扔掉

   

Too big and tattered the clothes that he's gathered from boxes thrown into the street 过大，破烂，他是从扔到街上收集箱衣服

He hides from the rain under store building ownings and stays in a shade in the heat 他从在店面建设ownings雨隐藏，并停留在阴影中的热量

Sisters and mothers and daddys and brothers he has none as far as I know 姊妹，母亲， daddys和兄弟，他有没有因为据我所知

Just bottles and boxes they're his little Fort Knoxes 只是瓶子和包装盒他们自己的小堡Knoxes

But to us they're just somethin' to throw 但是，为了我们，他们只是事端扔

Some folks laugh at him... 有些人对他笑...
