The Devil went down to Georgia

魔鬼下到乔治亚州

He was lookin' for a soul to steal

他正在寻找可以偷走的灵魂

He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind

他陷入困境，因为他远远落后了

And he was willin' to make a deal

而且他愿意做一笔交易

When he came across this young man

当他遇到这个年轻人时

Sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot

正在拉着小提琴，演奏得热火朝天

And the Devil jumped upon a hickory stump

魔鬼跳到山核桃树桩上

And said, "Boy, let me tell you what"

说道，“孩子，让我告诉你”

"I guess you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player, too

“我猜你不知道，我也是个小提琴手

And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you

如果你敢打个赌，我就和你赌一把

Now you play pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the Devil his due

你小提琴拉得不错，孩子，但别忘了魔鬼的厉害

I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul

我用一把金小提琴和你赌你的灵魂

'Cause I think I'm better than you"

因为我认为我比你更厉害”

The boy said, "My name's Johnny, and it might be a sin

男孩说，“我叫约翰尼，这可能是一种罪过

But I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret

但我接受你的赌注，你会后悔的

'Cause I am the best that's ever has been

因为我是有史以来最棒的”

Johnny, rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard

约翰尼，给你的弓上松香，用力拉你的小提琴

'Cause Hell's broke loose in Georgia and the Devil deals the cards

因为地狱在乔治亚州爆发了，魔鬼在发牌

And if you win, you get this shiny fiddle made of gold

如果你赢了，你就得到这把闪亮的金小提琴

But if you lose, the devil gets your soul

但如果你输了，魔鬼就会得到你的灵魂

...

...

The Devil opened up his case and he said, "I'll start this show"

魔鬼打开了他的琴盒，说道，“我来开始这场表演”

And fire flew from his fingertips as he rosined up his bow

当他给弓上松香时，火焰从他的指尖飞出

And he pulled the bow across the strings and it made a evil hiss

他用弓拉过琴弦，发出了邪恶的嘶嘶声

And a band of demons joined in, and it sounded somethin' like this

一群恶魔加入了进来，听起来就像这样

...

...

When the Devil finished

当魔鬼演奏完毕

Johnny said, "Well, you're pretty good ol' son

约翰尼说，“好吧，你拉得很好，老伙计

But sit down in that chair right there

但坐在那把椅子上

And let me show you how it's done"

让我来告诉你该怎么做”

"Fire on the Mountain", run, boys, run

“山上着火了”，跑啊，孩子们，跑啊

The Devil's in the house of the risin' sun

魔鬼在日出的房子里

Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough

面包盘里的鸡在挑面团

Granny, does your dog bite? No, child, no

奶奶，你的狗咬人吗？不，孩子，不咬

...

...

The Devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat

魔鬼低下了头，因为他知道自己被打败了

And he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet

他把那把金小提琴放在约翰尼的脚边

Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back if you ever wanna try again

约翰尼说，“魔鬼，如果你想再试一次，就回来吧

I done told you once, you son of a bitch

我已经告诉过你一次了，你这个婊子养的

I'm the best that's ever been" he played

我是有史以来最棒的”他演奏着

"Fire on the Mountain", run, boys, run

“山上着火了”，跑啊，孩子们，跑啊

The Devil's in the house of the risin' sun

魔鬼在日出的房子里

The chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough

面包盘里的鸡在挑面团

Granny, will your dog bite? No, child, no

奶奶，你的狗会咬人吗？不，孩子，不会
