Now I was driving down 现在，我被拉低

A West Texas highway 西得克萨斯高速公路

I saw a hitchhiker 我看到了一个搭车

And his thumb was pointing my way 而他的拇指指着我的方式

He didn't look suspicious 他看上去并不可疑

And he didn't look any too clean 他没有看任何太干净

   

I put on my brakes 我把我的刹车片

And I opened my door 我打开我的门

I could tell he was a bum 我看得出他是一个流浪汉

By the muddy boot he wore 通过泥泞引导他穿

He said I'm going down to Haskell 他说，我要下去到哈斯克尔

Got a woman down in Abilene 在阿比林有一个女人倒

   

He said East Texas 他说，德州东

Is where I come from 是我来自哪里

I was working a rodeo out there 我工作圈地那里

So I'm just traveling around 所以，我只是周游

A whole lot of Texas I've seen 一大堆得克萨斯我见过

   

I'm mighty glad 我很高兴威猛

You were going my way 你要我的方式

In your brand new clothes there 在你的品牌的新衣服有

And your great big Chevrolet 和你的伟大的大雪佛兰

I'm going down to Haskell 我要下去到哈斯克尔

Got a woman down in Abilene 在阿比林有一个女人倒

   

Well he was grinning like a possum 好吧，他笑着像负鼠

And a mighty happy rascal 和一个强大的快乐流氓

And he waved good-bye 和他挥手再见

When I let him out in Haskell 当我让他在哈斯克尔

And that's about the last 这就是关于最后

Of that old road tramp 那老路流浪汉

I ever did see 我这辈子没有看到
