[00:04.10] Jimmy Sparks went into bars and opened up his mouth
[00:10.98] Said some things to wounded men that they could not allow
[00:17.57] When it came to talking he was always on the run
[00:24.03] Everyone knew what the man had done
[00:30.17] Oh, he'll take you for a ride
[00:47.95] Jimmy believed in the American way
[00:51.76] A prison guard he worked hard and made the minimum wage
[00:57.57] He found his freedom locking men in a cage
[01:06.48] Jimmy loved Bonnie and he fathered a kid
[01:10.33] A baby boy but the mother had other reasons to live
[01:16.46] She left the baby with a note on the bed
[01:24.69] It was a struggle just to cover the rent
[01:29.04] His jail cut hours and now his little baby was sick
[01:34.71] He needed money and he needed it quick
[01:38.48] It was three AM
[01:41.85] Oh my love oh my love
[01:50.86] Could you spare my blood, spare my blood
[02:00.95] Jim woke his son and buckled him in the car
[02:05.68] They drove an hour from town and found a gambling hall
[02:10.88] The waitress babysat the boy at the bar oh no
[02:18.86] After an hour Jimmy doubled his cash
[02:23.23] He took his kid and his winnings as the dealer just laughed
[02:28.38] He said they leave but then they always come back
[02:31.83] That's a fact
[02:35.84] Out on the road they caught a stranger in the lights
[02:40.85] His thumb was up and the son asked if the man was alright
[02:45.54] Jim said you never give a hitcher a ride
[02:49.08] Cause it's us or them
[02:52.72] It was three AM
[02:57.26] Oh my love oh my love
[03:04.66] Could you spare my blood, spare my blood
[03:28.79] Twenty years gone and now the boy is a man
[03:32.84] Old Jimmy's habits got him mountains and mountains of debt
[03:38.02] And now the sharks are coming back to collect
[03:45.64] They strip the jewelry and the boots off Jim's feet
[03:50.72] They kick Him out of the car and say we'll give you a week
[03:55.46] Eight miles from home and only eighteen degrees
[03:59.00] It was three AM
[04:02.27] Oh my love oh my love
[04:10.46] Would you spare my blood, damn my blood
[04:50.79] Now Jimmy's son is trying to make his way home
[04:56.25] His graveyard shift had ended and it was starting to snow
[05:01.73] He sees an old man walking barefoot alone
[05:05.75] It was three AM
[05:10.95] His old man waved his hands with tears in his eyes
[05:15.87] But Jimmy's son just sped up and remembered daddy's advice
[05:21.88] No you don't ever give a hitcher a ride
[05:25.81] 'Cause it's us or them
[05:29.86] 'Cause it's me or him
[05:35.27] It was three AM
[05:40.66] Three AM
歌词翻译
[00:04.10] 吉米·斯帕克斯走进酒吧,他张开嘴,
[00:10.98] 对伤员说了一些忤逆触犯他们的话。
[00:17.57] 说到谈话,他总是在逃避;
[00:24.03] 每个人都知道他做了什么。
[00:30.17] 哦,他会带你去兜风的;
[00:47.95] 吉米相信美国人的方式。
[00:51.76] 一个狱警努力工作,挣到了最低工资;
[00:57.57] 他把别人锁进牢里,自己从中感到自由
[01:06.48] 吉米爱邦妮,他有了一个孩子。
[01:10.33] 一个男婴,但不是他母亲活下去的唯一理由;
[01:16.46] 她把一张纸条留在了婴儿床上。它成了弃婴。
[01:24.69] 只是为了付房租苟活而挣扎。
[01:29.04] 监狱削减工时(工资也随之缩水),现在他的孩子患上病来
[01:34.71] 他需要钱,迫在眉睫。
[01:38.48] 当时是凌晨三点,
[01:41.85] 哦我的爱,我的爱人啊
[01:50.86] 我祈求你放过我的家族,饶恕我的血统。(这两句是nightshade彩蛋,重复出现)
[02:00.95] 吉姆叫醒了儿子,把他(用安全带)扣在车上
[02:05.68] 他们从镇上出发,开车一小时,发现了一个赌场。
[02:10.88] 女服务员在酒吧照看那个男孩,哦不;
[02:18.86] 一小时后,吉姆加倍了他的赌金
[02:23.23] 他带走孩子,带走了赢来的钱,而商人只是笑了;
[02:28.38] 他说,他们是走了,但他们总会回来。(与加州旅馆异曲同工之感)
[02:31.83] 这是个事实。
[02:35.84] 在路上,他们在灯光下抓到一个陌生人;
[02:40.85] 他竖起大拇指,儿子问他是否还好
[02:45.54] 吉姆说,你可千万让给人家搭车
[02:49.08] 因为非我即他
[02:52.72] 那是凌晨三点,
[02:57.26] 哦我的爱,我的爱人,
[03:04.66] 我向你祈求,放过我的家族,饶恕我的血统吧
[03:28.79] 二十年过去了,男孩长大成为男人;
[03:32.84] 老吉米的习惯使他债台高筑;
[03:38.02] 现在骗子为敛财而来。
[03:45.64] 他们剥去了吉姆脚上的珠宝,连靴子也不放过;
[03:50.72] 他们把他踢下车,说我们给你一个星期。
[03:55.46] 路途遥远,艰难险阻
[03:59.00] 这正是凌晨三点
[04:02.27] 哦我的爱,我的爱人啊;
[04:10.46] 求求你放过我的血统,我该死的罪恶的家世
[04:50.79] 现在吉米的儿子试着回家
[04:56.25] 他结束了夜班。雪开始纷纷扬扬地下起来。
[05:01.73] 他看见一个老人,他光着脚踽踽独行。
[05:05.75] 当时正是凌晨三点
[05:10.95] 那老人挥舞双手,眼里有泪
[05:15.87] 但是吉米的儿子加快了速度,他想起了爸爸的忠告;
[05:21.88] 不,你可别让别人搭车,
[05:25.81] 因为在我们与他人之间
[05:29.86] 只能选一个
[05:35.27] 一切为时尚早
[05:40.66] 为时尚早
