A young cowboy named Billy Joe grew restless on the farm 一位年轻的牛仔名为比利·乔变得坐立不安农场

A boy filled with wonderlust who really meant no harm 充满wonderlust一个男孩谁真的没有恶意

He changed his clothes and shined his boots 他改变了他的衣服，照他的靴子

And combed his dark hair down 和梳理他的黑头发了

And his mother cried as he walked out 和他的母亲哭了，他走了出来

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

Don't take your guns to town son 不要把你的枪给镇子

Leave your guns at home Bill 留下你的枪在家里法案

Don't take your guns to town 不要把你的枪给镇

   

He laughed and kissed his mom 他笑了，吻了他的妈妈

I can shoot as quick and straight as anybody can 我可以拍那么快，且笔直任何人都可以

I'd gun nobody down 我倒是没人枪下

[Chorus] [合唱]

Don't take your guns to town son 不要把你的枪给镇子

Leave your guns at home Bill 留下你的枪在家里法案

He sang a song as on he rode 他唱的一首歌作为他骑

His guns hung at his hips 他的枪挂在他的臀部

He rode into a cattle town 他骑成牛镇

A smile upon his lips 在他的嘴唇微笑

He stopped and walked into a bar 他停了下来，走进一家酒吧

And laid his money down 并把他的钱下来

He drank his first strong liquor then to calm his shaking hand 他喝了他的第一个强烈的酒，然后以平息他颤抖的手

And tried to tell himself he had become a man 并试图告诉自己，他已经成为一个男人

A dusty cowpoke at his side began to laugh him down 布满灰尘的牧童在他的身边就开始笑他下来

And he heard again his mothers words 他又听到了他母亲的话

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

The crowd all gathered 'round 众人都聚集轮

And wondered at his final words 并想知道他最后的话

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

Leave your guns at home Bill 留下你的枪在家里法案
