Well the alley dogs are barking 好巷口狗叫声

Chickens crowing down the lane 鸡鸣下来车道

And I feel just like that hipster 我感觉就像是时髦

With his mournful low refrain 随着他的悲哀低近三成

With the sun down on my shoulders 随着太阳了我的肩膀上

Just a hanging around the yard 只是挂在院子里

I'm leaving here tomorrow 我要离开这里的明天

Gonna catch an empty car 要去赶一个空的车

   

There's a thousand constellations 有一千个星座

In that brilliant, beaming sky 在这辉煌的，喜气洋洋的天空

But the Earth is just one station 但地球只有一个站

On that lonesome, starry line 在那寂寞的，满天星斗行

There's a distant whistle blowing 有一个遥远的哨子吹

Down a rusty stretch of track 向下一个生锈的拉伸轨道

And I'm just an empty coal car 而我只是一个空煤车

On that train not coming back 上车不回来了

   

Well I hate to see that evening sun go down 嗯，我讨厌看到那个晚上太阳下去

Well it's lonesome coming down my trail 那么它的寂寞灌进我的足迹

Well I know this train will take me where I'm bound 嗯，我知道这趟车会带我去哪里，我绑定

But I hate to see that evening sun go down 可是，我讨厌看到晚上太阳下去

   

Well the sidewalks have their streetlamps 以及人行道有自己的街灯

And the city has a glow 与城市有辉光

And the poor boy has the moonlight 而可怜的孩子有月光

Walking in his shadow 走在他的影子

But the night time can't be trusted 但夜间不能被信任

To return the morning sun 返回清晨的阳光

And my eyes have not adjusted 我的眼睛还没有调整

To this black face I got on 这个黑色的脸我上

   

Well I hate to see that evening sun go down 嗯，我讨厌看到那个晚上太阳下去

Well it's lonesome coming down my trail 那么它的寂寞灌进我的足迹

Well I know this train will take me where I'm bound 嗯，我知道这趟车会带我去哪里，我绑定

But I hate to see that evening sun go down 可是，我讨厌看到晚上太阳下去

   

Well the night time makes you lonesome 好了晚上的时间让你孤单

For that early morning sun 对于清晨的阳光

For the light upon the engine 对于发动机在轻

Reaching towards the dawn 达到对曙光

You can spend your whole life racing 你可以花你的整个生命赛跑

Down rusty railroad lines 向下生锈铁路线

It's the setting sun you're chasing 这是你追着夕阳

In that dark and rolling sky 在那黑暗和滚动的天空

   

Yes I hate to see that evening sun go down 是的，我讨厌看到晚上太阳下去

Well it's lonesome coming down my trail 那么它的寂寞灌进我的足迹

Well I know this train will take me where I'm bound 嗯，我知道这趟车会带我去哪里，我绑定
