My daddy left home when I was three[00:00:05]

我三岁的时候我爸爸离开了家[00:00:07]

And he didn't leave much to ma and me[00:00:07]

没有给我和妈妈留下什么[00:00:10]

Just this old guitar and an empty bottle of booze [00:00:10]

只有这把老吉他和一个空酒杯[00:00:14]

Now I don't blame him cause he ran and hid[00:00:14]

现在，我不责备他跑掉不见[00:00:17]

But the meanest thing that he ever did[00:00:17]

Was before he left he went and named me Sue [00:00:19]

It seems I had to fight my whole life through [00:00:31]

Some gal would giggle and I'd get red[00:00:32]

And some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head [00:00:36]

Well I grew up quick and I grew up mean [00:00:46]

我很快长大而且变得很刻薄[00:00:48]

My fist got hard and my wits got keen [00:00:48]

我的拳头变得很结实，我的智慧很敏锐[00:00:50]

I'd roam from town to town to hide my shame [00:00:50]

But I made a vow to the moon and stars[00:00:53]

That I'd search the honky-tonks and bars[00:00:58]

Sat the dirty mangy dog that named me Sue [00:01:19]
