I wanna go across the river 我想去河对岸

To the house on oldway road 要在oldway路的房子

Where my life began and ended all the same 在我的生命的开始和结束都一样

I remember Chris and Johnny 我记得克里斯和约翰尼

childhood friends of mine 我的童年时代的朋友

Who grew wise enough to 谁从小到足够的智慧

learn to play the game 学会玩游戏

   

As I walked up to the front yard 当我走到前院

There were children playing there 有小孩在那里嬉戏

And I thought someday this 而且我认为这一天

may be my home again 可能再次成为我的家

But how soon I learned my lesson 但是，如何很快我吸取了教训

Through the windows they threw stones 透过窗户，他们投掷石块

And said there's nothing 并说没有什么

left inside Mr. Jones 左琼斯先生内

   

I went next door to ask the neighbor 我去隔壁问邻居

If they knew what happened here 如果他们知道这里发生了什么

To the place where all my memories remain 到了那里我所有的回忆留在地方

As they recalled and tried to answer 当他们回忆并试图回答

Tears rolled down their eyes 眼泪顺着他们的目光

But the best reply they had was made in vain 但是，他们有最好的答复，不枉费

   

Seems the folks that used to live there 看来，用住在那里的人

Worked hard for all their means 辛苦了他们所有的手段

But their means could never take them to an end 但他们的手段永远无法把他们结束

There was hope down in the city 目前在城市是希望降低

Then a bank declined their loan 然后，银行拒绝其贷款

Now there's nothing left inside, Mr. Jones 现在没有什么留在车内，琼斯先生

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

Can't you see that it's empty now 难道你不知道它是空的，现在

And no one really cares 没有人真正关心

For even I must try to save my own 因为即使我必须试图挽救自己

You should turn around and get back on that 你应该转身坐回了

Lonely oldway road 孤独oldway路

'Cause there's nothing left inside, Mr. Jones 因为没有什么留在车内，琼斯先生

   

[Repeat chorus] [重复合唱]

   

I'm going back across the river 我要背过河

To see if I can find 看看我能找到

The place where life can start and end all the same 那里的生活也开始和结束都是一样的地方

But no matter where I'm going it will dwell inside my bones 但无论我要去哪里它会停留在我的骨头

That there's nothing left inside, Mr. Jones 这里面剩下的里面什么都没有，琼斯先生

No there's nothing left inside, Mr. Jones 没有什么都不剩内，琼斯先生
