wait in the truck

• By: HARDY, Lainey Wilson

Lyrics:

[English]

[中文]

I got turned around in some little town

我在一个小镇上迷了路

I'd never been to before

这是我从未去过的地方

Working my way through a middle-of-June

在六月中旬的时光中努力前行

Midnight thunderstorm

午夜的雷暴

There was something in the headlights

车灯下有个东西

It stopped me on a dime

让我立刻停下

Well, she was scared to death, so I said

她吓得要死，我说

"Climb in," and then she climbed

"上车吧，"然后她就上了车

Oh, yeah

哦，是的

...

...

Well, she was bruised and broke from head to toe

她全身都是伤，伤痕累累

With a tear in her blood-stained shirt

她的血迹斑斑的衬衫上有个撕裂的地方

She didn't tell the whole truth, but she didn't have to

她没有说出全部真相，但她不需要

I knew what had happened to her

我知道她经历了什么

I didn't load her down with questions

我没有问她太多问题

That girl had been through enough

那个女孩已经经历了太多

I just threw it in drive, looked in those eyes

我只把车挂上档，望进她的眼睛

And I asked her where he was

我问她他在哪里

I don't know if he's an angel

我不知道他是不是天使

'Cause angels don't do what he did

因为天使不会做他做的事

He was hellbent to find the man behind

他决心要找到那个男人

All the whiskey scars I hid

我隐藏的所有酒精伤痕

I never thought my day of justice

我从未想过我的正义之日

Would come from a judge under a seat

会来自座位下的一个法官

But I knew right then I'd never get hit again

但我当时就知道我再也不会被打了

When he said to me

当他说

"Wait in the truck

"在车里等着

Just wait in the truck"

就等在车里"

Well, I knocked and knocked and no one came

我敲了敲门，但没有人来

So I kicked in his double-wide door

于是我踢开了他的双开门

I let the hammer drop before he got

在他拿到枪之前，我让枪栓落下

To that 12 he was reaching for

他正要拿的那把12口径

I didn't try to hide my pistol

我没有试图藏起我的手枪

I didn't even try to run

我甚至没有试图逃跑

I just sat on the porch, smoking one of his cigarettes

我只是坐在门廊上，抽着他的一根烟

And waited for the cops to come

等着警察来

I don't know if he's an angel

我不知道他是不是天使

'Cause angels don't do what he did

因为天使不会做他做的事

He was hellbent to find the man behind

他决心要找到那个男人

All the whiskey scars I hid

我隐藏的所有酒精伤痕

I never thought my day of justice

我从未想过我的正义之日

Would come from a judge under a seat

会来自座位下的一个法官

But I knew right then I'd never get hit again

但我当时就知道我再也不会被打了

When he said to me

当他说

"Wait in the truck

"在车里等着

Just wait in the truck"

就等在车里"

Whoa (whoa)

哇（哇）

Have mercy on me, Lord

主啊，怜悯我

Have mercy on me

Have mercy on me (hey), Lord

It's been 60 months and she still comes

已经过去60个月，她仍然会来

To see me from time to time

不时来看我

It was worth the price, to see a brighter side

看到更光明的一面是值得的

Of the girl I picked up that night

那晚我接的女孩

And I might be here forever

我可能会在这里待一辈子

It ain't paradise, that's true

这不是天堂，确实如此

But it's whole hell of a lot better

但这里比我送他去的地方好得多

Than the place I sent him to, yeah
