Back behind the screen door of Andy's luncheonette[00:00:37]
在安迪的小餐馆的纱门后[00:00:43]
And I ain't got time to worry 'bout my health[00:00:43]

Back when you were Romeo and I was Juliet[00:01:03]
风华正茂的我们[00:01:09]
West Texas Capulet and Montague[00:01:09]

Most nights I come home from work and I pour a glass of wine[00:01:59]

Sometimes it's three or four before I stop[00:02:05]

And Jessie makes a sandwich if I sleep through suppertime[00:02:13]

And she leaves me on the couch to sleep it off[00:02:19]

Now Jessie just turned 17 and she's wild as she can be[00:02:26]

Mascara runnin' down her face[00:03:01]
睫毛膏混着眼泪从她脸上滑落[00:03:06]
Seems like history repeats itself [00:03:06]
世事兜兜转转[00:03:10]
And it ain't up to you[00:03:10]
却不遂人意[00:03:15]
And in five minutes[00:03:15]

He'd love to take your place[00:03:44]
她想取代你在我心中的位置[00:03:50]
But somethin' deep inside me[00:03:50]

Just withers up and dies[00:03:53]
我已心灰意冷[00:03:56]
To make love to him[00:03:56]
片刻的欢愉[00:03:58]
And only see your face[00:03:58]

Somehow I've let myself go gently down the stream[00:04:04]
我想让自己如释重负[00:04:11]
A fine example I have set[00:04:11]
哪怕是为自己做个样子[00:04:16]
Between the working and the livin'[00:04:16]
不管是工作还是生活[00:04:20]
And the ghosts that haunt my dreams[00:04:20]
你总是萦绕在我心头[00:04:25]
I've got five minutes[00:04:25]
片刻的放松[00:04:30]
And I'm gonna smoke this cigarette[00:04:30]
