Dear landlord 亲爱的楼主

Please don't put a price on my soul 请不要把价格上我的灵魂

My burden is heavy 我的担子很重

My dreams are beyond control 我的梦想是无法控制的

When that steamboat whistle blows 当轮船哨声响起

I'm gonna give you all I got to give 我会给你我的一切给

And I do hope you receive it well 我也希望你能收到很好

Depending on the way you feel that you live. 根据不同的方式，你觉得你活着。

   

Dear landlord 亲爱的楼主

Please heed these words that I speak 请注意这些话，我讲

I know you've suffered much 我知道你已经遭受了太多

But in this you are not so unique 但在这你是不是很独特

All of us, at times we might work too hard 我们所有的人，有时我们可能工作太辛苦

To have it too fast and too much 有它太快，太多

And anyone can fill his life up 任何人都可以填补他的生活了

With things he can see but he just cannot touch. 用的东西，他可以看到，但他就是无法触及。

   

Dear landlord 亲爱的楼主

Please don't dismiss my case 请不要开除我的情况

I'm not about to move to no other place 我不会移动到任何其他地方

Now, each of us has his own special gift 现在，我们每个人都有自己的特殊的礼物

And you know this was meant to be true 你知道这本来是真

And if you don't underestimate me 如果你不要小看我

I won't underestimate you. 我不会小看你。
