今天分享一首有点年代感的乡村音乐,发行于1985年的
《Highwayman》,演唱乐队是The Highwaymen,
The Highwaymen是由美国四位传奇乡村巨星
Johnny Cash、 Waylon Jennings、Willie Nelson、Kris Kristofferson组成的临时乐队。
这个乐队是Willie Nelson七十年代发起的Outlaw Country运动的产物,
所谓Outlaw Country反叛的其实是当时的「纳什维尔之声」,
回归乡村根源的一场运动。
叙事性的歌词+乡村老炮们低沉沙哑的嗓音,
不失为一首非常好听的歌曲
I was a highwayman, along the coach roads I did ride With sword and pistol by my side Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide And with the sea I did abide I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed I was a dam builder, across the river deep and wide Where steel and water did collide A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound But I am still around, I'll always be around and around And around and around and around I fly a starship across the Universe divide And when I reach the other side I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can 我将会找到一个地方,我可以在那里彻底放松我的灵魂,如果我可以的话 Perhaps I may become a highwayman again Or I may simply be a single drop of rain But I will remain and I'll be back again And again and again and again and again |
