As I drive toward home I picture Momma waiting 当我开车往家里我想象妈妈等待

She'll be glad to see her big time boy come home 她会很高兴看到她大的时候男孩回家

She gets little in return for all she's given 她得到的回报很少为所有她给

And I'm all she's got to love since Daddy's gone. 而我所有的她得到了，因为爸爸走了爱。

   

Now I'm forty miles away and I'm still wonderin' 现在我40英里路程，我仍然迷惘

Why I ever told her I was doing well 为什么我没有告诉她我做得很好

When I first went wrong I should have turned to Momma 当我第一次出了问题，我应该已经转向妈妈

But it's hard to get back up once you have fell. 但很难重新站起来，一旦你已经倒下了。

   

It's the last time I'll see flowers in the morning 这是我最后一次见花开的早晨

It's the last time I'll hear robins in the spring 这是我最后一次听到知更鸟在春天

It's the last time I'll feel Momma's arms around me 这是最后一次，我会觉得我身边的妈妈的怀抱

It's the last chance here on earth I'll have to sing. 这是最后的机会在地球上我要唱歌。

   

As I drive away behind me Momma's waving 正如我赶走我身后妈妈的挥舞

To a son who's all she'd ever hoped he'd be 一个儿子谁是她养过希望他会

Now she says her final prayers, "And go, meet Daddy" 现在，她说，她最后的祈祷， “去，迎接爸爸”

And I'm glad she's only seen one side of me. 我很高兴她只看到了我的一边。

   

Today makes thirteen years in Coleman's Federal Prison 今天，让十三年科尔曼联邦监狱

And tonight I'll walk these last few steps alone 今晚我会独自行走这最后几步

But I can't help think that somewhere Momma's waiting 但我不禁觉得某处妈妈的等待

Once again to see her big time boy come home. 再一次见到回家的她大的时候男孩。

   

It's the last time I'll see flowers in the morning 这是我最后一次见花开的早晨

It's the last time I'll hear robins in the spring 这是我最后一次听到知更鸟在春天

It's the last time I'll feel Momma's arms around me 这是最后一次，我会觉得我身边的妈妈的怀抱

It's the last chance here on earth I'll have to sing... 这是最后的机会在地球上我要唱...
