Seven years of hard luck, comin' down on me 七年的艰苦运气，在我坠落下来

From the Florida border, yea up to Nashville Tennessee 来自佛罗里达州的边境，是啊，到田纳西州的纳什维尔

I worked in every joint you can name, mister every honkytonk 我曾在每一个关节，你可以命名，老总每次honkytonk

Along come Mr Yankee Slicker, sayin' maybe you're what I want 同来扬先生痞子，说也许你就是我想要的

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

Want you to sign your contract 要你你的合同签署

Want you to sign today 希望你今天签署

Gonna give you lots of money 会给你很多钱

Workin' For MCA 日夜不停的为马华

   

9000 dollars, that's all we could win 9000美元，这就是我们能赢得

But we smiled at the Yankee Slicker with a big ol' Southern grin 但是，我们微笑着对洋基痞子一个大醇南方的笑容

They're gonna take me out to California gonna make me a superstar 他们会带我出去加利福尼亚想让我一个超级巨星

Just pay me all of my money and mister maybe you won't get a scar 只是要我的钱和老总的我都也许你不会得到一个疤痕

   

[Chorus] [合唱]

   

Suckers took my money since I was seventeen 吸盘拿了我的钱，因为我是17

If it ain't no pencil pusher, it got to be a honkytonk queen 如果不是没有铅笔推杆，它必须是一个honkytonk女王

But I'll sign my contract baby, and I wan't you people to know 但我会签下我的合同的宝宝，我want你的人知道

That every penny that I make, I'm gonna see where my money goes 这每一分钱，我做，我要看看我的钱去

   

[Chorus] [合唱]
