（欢快的乡村音乐）

♪ 让他滚吧，伙伴们，让他滚 ♪

♪ 我打赌他已经去往——达拉斯，安息吧 ♪

♪ 他曾是个酒鬼，忠实可靠 ♪

♪ 做过所有能做的事 ♪

♪ 他在货轮上工作——也在酒吧干活 ♪

♪ 他在农场干活——也修理汽车 ♪

♪ 正是那白波特酒，让他眼里带光 ♪

♪ 那种成年男子在需要哭泣时的眼神 ♪

♪ 我们坐在路缘边休息 ♪

♪ 他把头靠在胸前 ♪

♪ 他每天都说 ♪

♪ 事情变得稍微有点儿难以应付，却仍然 … ♪

♪ 然后他失去线索——思绪变得混乱 ♪

♪ 话语像水一样滚落进沟里 ♪

♪ 他是廉价旅店的电梯维修员 ♪

♪ 以此换取一间单人房的租金 ♪

♪ 他在本不该拥有的年龄里已经老去 ♪

♪ 都怪这个世界——和白波特酒 ♪

♪ 于是他说，孩子，他总是叫我‘儿子’ ♪

♪ 他说，你的人生才刚刚开始 ♪

♪ 然后他讲述了我早已听过的故事 ♪

♪ 他如何爱上了达拉斯的妓女 ♪

♪ 他可以穿越岁月，直至那夜 ♪

♪ 那一切在妓院的争斗中结束 ♪

♪ 她拒绝了他最后的求婚 ♪

♪ 选择成为城里的一位女子 ♪

♪ 如今已经过去十七年，正好直线相连 ♪

♪ 他从未真正安稳过 ♪

♪ 那是太多年的——与风雨搏斗 ♪

♪ 也是太多夜晚——不能相聚在一起 ♪

♪ 于是他去世了 ♪

♪ 让他滚吧，伙伴们，让他滚 ♪

♪ 我打赌他已经去往——达拉斯，安息吧 ♪

♪ 让他滚吧，伙伴们，让他滚 ♪

♪ 他一直以为天堂——不过是达拉斯的妓女 ♪

♪ 当他们翻阅——他的私人物品时 ♪

♪ 在福利金的票根之间 ♪

♪ 有一张破碎的照片——门口的女孩 ♪

♪ 上面写着达拉斯的地址，别无他物 ♪

♪ 那些福利工作人员——请来了牧师 ♪

♪ 以及街角的教会情侣 ♪

♪ 他们唱《奇异恩典》，却没人哭泣 ♪

♪ 只有一位身穿黑纱的女士远远站在一旁 ♪

♪ 我们都离开了，她仍站在那里 ♪

♪ 那黑纱遮住了她银白的发丝 ♪

♪ 那位独眼的老约翰说她叫爱丽丝 ♪

♪ 她曾是达拉斯的妓女 ♪

♪ 让他滚吧，伙伴们，让他滚 ♪

♪ 我打赌他已经去往——达拉斯，安息吧 ♪

♪ 让他滚吧，伙伴们，让他滚 ♪

♪ 他一直以为天堂——不过是达拉斯的妓女 ♪

♪ 让他滚吧，伙伴们，让他滚 ♪

♪ 让他滚 ♪

(upbeat country music)

♪ Let him roll, boys, let him roll ♪

♪ I bet he's gone to Dallas, rest his soul ♪

♪ Now he was a wino, tried and true ♪

♪ Done about everything there is to do ♪

♪ He worked on freighters, he worked in bars ♪

♪ He worked on farms and he worked on cars ♪

♪ Now it was white port wine that put that look in his eye ♪

♪ That grown men get when they need to cry ♪

♪ And we sat down on the curb to rest ♪

♪ And his head just fell down on his chest ♪

♪ He said every single day ♪

♪ It gets just a little bit harder to handle and yet ♪

♪ Then he lost the thread and his mind got cluttered ♪

♪ The words just rolled off down in the gutter ♪

♪ He was a elevator man in a cheap hotel ♪

♪ In exchange for the rent on a one-room cell ♪

♪ And he's years old before his time ♪

♪ No thanks to the world and the white port wine ♪

♪ So he said, son, he always called me son ♪

♪ He said life for you has just begun ♪

♪ And then he told me the story that I'd heard before ♪

♪ How he fell in love with a Dallas whore ♪

♪ He could cut through the years to the very night ♪

♪ That it all ended in a whorehouse fight ♪

♪ And she turned his last proposal down ♪

♪ In favor of being a girl about town ♪

♪ Now it's been 17 years right in line ♪

♪ And he ain't been straight none of the time ♪

♪ It's too many years of fightin' the weather ♪

♪ And too many nights of not being together ♪

♪ So he died ♪

♪ Let him roll, boys, let him roll ♪

♪ I'll bet he's gone to Dallas, rest his soul ♪

♪ Let him roll, boys, let him roll ♪

♪ He always thought that heaven was just a Dallas whore ♪

♪ When they went through his personal affects ♪

♪ In among the stubs from the welfare checks ♪

♪ Was a crumblin' picture of a girl in a door ♪

♪ An address in Dallas and nothin' more ♪

♪ Well the welfare people provided the priest ♪

♪ And the couple from the mission down the street ♪

♪ Sang Amazing Grace and nobody cried ♪

♪ Except some lady in black way off to the side ♪

♪ We all left and she's standing there ♪

♪ The black veil covering her silver hair ♪

♪ And old one-eyed John said her name was Alice ♪

♪ She used to be a whore in Dallas ♪

♪ Let him roll, boys, let him roll ♪

♪ I bet he's gone to Dallas, rest his soul ♪

♪ Let him roll, boys, let him roll ♪

♪ He always thought that heaven was just a Dallas whore ♪

♪ Let him roll, boys, let him roll ♪

♪ Let him roll ♪
