Roap Stretchin’ Blues

Blind Blake

I caught a stranger in my house, and I busted his head with a club 知らん奴が俺の家におったから、そいつを捕まえてクラブで頭を叩いた I caught a stranger in my house, and I busted his head with a club そう。知らん浮気相手が俺の家におったから頭をかち割ったんや I lay him out cold, with his heels in a tub んでそいつを外オケに掘り込んどいたけど 足だけが出てて I seen the sheriff coming, and I jumped for the door I seen the sheriff coming, and I jumped for the door そうこうしとると警官がやってきた 咄嗟にドア開けて逃げ去ろうとしたけど But I jumped too late, the sheriff had done jumped before 一瞬遅かった。警官が先に俺に飛び着いてきた They buried a man Thursday, just two short days you see They buried a man Thursday, just two short days you see そいつの葬儀は木曜日、それから僅か2日後のこと And it makes me wonder, what they going to do to me 俺は奴らが何を企んでるのか考え込んでる I killed a man, and that's the how and how I killed a man, and that's the how and how I'm sitting here wondering, if a woman's worth it now 俺は人殺し、そう 俺は人殺しなんだよ でも俺は座り込んで考え込んでる。 女の方こそそうなるべきなん違うの？って Mmm, rope stretching all day long Mmm, rope stretching all day long In just a few more days, I won't be able to sing my song あ、あ、首吊り縄が頭から離れない 数日後には歌を歌う事さえ出来なくなる
