原歌词
[00:24.429] See that black boy over there runnin' scared
[00:27.496] His old man in a bottle
[00:32.776] He done quit his 9 to 5
[00:34.691] He drink full time and now he's livin' in a bottle
[00:41.268] See that black boy over there runnin' scared
[00:44.518] His old man got a problem
[00:47.003] And it's a bad one
[00:48.538] He done pawned off damn near everything,
[00:51.684] His old woman's weddin' ring for a bottle
[00:58.311] And don't you think it's a crime when
[01:03.397] Time after time after time
[01:06.210] People in the bottle
[01:08.480] There's people livin' in the bottle
[01:14.108] Listen to me
[01:15.137] See that sister, sho' was fine
[01:17.155] Before she started drinkin' wine in a bottle
[01:22.237] She told me her old man committed a crime
[01:25.525] He's doin' time and now she's hangin' in a bottle
[01:30.845] I seen her out there on the avenue
[01:34.020] All by herself, she sho' need help from the bottle
[01:39.159] I seen a preacherman try to help her out
[01:42.495] She cussed him out and hit him in the head with a bottle
[01:46.772] They turn to me, and they ask me, Gil,
[01:49.037] Don't you think it's a crime the way
[01:54.024] Time after time after time
[01:56.947] People in the bottle
[01:59.315] There's people sho' nuff in the bottle
[02:03.503] I'll give you another good example
[02:05.933] You see that gent in the wrinkled suit
[02:07.991] He done damn near blown his cool to the bottle
[02:12.947] He was a doctor helpin' young girls along
[02:16.418] If they wasn't too far gone in her problems
[02:22.086] But defenders of the dollar eagle said,
[02:25.707] “What you doin, man, ain't legal”
[02:27.475] Now he's in the bottle
[02:31.570] And now we watch him everyday
[02:33.615] He's tryin' to chase the prisons away from the bottle
[02:37.884] He turned to me and he said to me, hey now
[02:40.485] Don't you think it's a crime the way
[02:45.031] Time after time
[02:47.077] Friends of mine in the bottle
[02:50.702] There's people sho nuff in the bottle
[02:54.656] Come on, hit me the lick one time, stick
[02:56.758] Uuh
[03:28.764] I'll tell you a little secret
[03:31.311] If you ever come lookin' for me
[03:33.092] You know where I'm bound to be,
[03:35.272] In the bottle
[03:38.687] Turn around
[03:39.709] Look around on any corner
[03:41.868] If you see some brother lookin' like a goner
[03:44.986] It's gonna be me
[03:47.272] Sing the song
[03:48.271] Na na na na na na na na na..

[04:15.535] All that I'm concerned about is a bottle
[04:19.855] It can turn me inside out for the bottle
[04:24.537] All I want
[04:25.629] Said all I want
[04:26.428] Said all I want

歌词翻译
[00:24.429] 看看那位黑人男孩 在那里恐惧地奔跑着
[00:27.496] 他的老父亲活在那酒瓶里
[00:32.776] 他已辞去朝九晚五的工作
[00:34.691] 变成全职酒鬼 现在他已活在那酒瓶之中了
[00:41.268] 看看那位黑人男孩 在那里恐惧地奔跑着
[00:44.518] 他的老父亲 堕落在麻烦之中
[00:47.003] 那是个最难解决的麻烦
[00:48.538] 他已当掉了几乎所有的东西
[00:51.684] 妻子的结婚戒指 只为换一瓶新酒
[00:58.311] 你难道不觉得那是一种罪吗
[01:03.397] 一次次的重蹈覆撤 一次次的再陷泥潭
[01:06.210] 活在酒瓶里的人们啊
[01:08.480] 这世上有人活在酒瓶里
[01:14.108] 听我说
[01:15.137] 看看那姐妹 是多么飒爽
[01:17.155] 那一切早已让瓶中酒给化为过去式
[01:22.237] 她告诉我说 她的老父亲犯下了罪
[01:25.525] 关进监牢里服刑 现在她只能整日沉溺于酒瓶
[01:30.845] 我看到了她 在那外面的大街上
[01:34.020] 孤身一人 她确实需要那酒瓶的援助
[01:39.159] 我看到一位牧师 竭尽全力想帮她抽身而出
[01:42.495] 她不过以脏话伺候 把那酒瓶打到了他的头上
[01:46.772] 他们转向我 然后询问我 "Gil
[01:49.037] 你难道不觉得那是一种罪吗 像那样子
[01:54.024] 一次次的重蹈覆撤 一次次的再陷泥潭”
[01:56.947] 活在酒瓶里的人们啊
[01:59.315] 这世上的确有人活在酒瓶里
[02:03.503] 我来给你看另一个案例
[02:05.933] 看看那位衬衫褶皱的绅士
[02:07.991] 他几乎把他所有的风度 都让那酒瓶给吹了
[02:12.947] 他曾是一位医生 帮助那些年轻少女改进
[02:16.418] 只要她们不深陷其中 烂醉成疾
[02:22.086] 但美金的拥护者 这样说道
[02:25.707] "你所做的事 兄弟 它不合法"
[02:27.475] 现在他也活在酒瓶里了
[02:31.570] 如今 我们看着他日日夜夜
[02:33.615] 拼尽全力 用酒瓶来驱赶着那监牢
[02:37.884] 他转向我 说道 "嘿 现在说说
[02:40.485] 你难道不觉得那是一种罪吗 像那样子
[02:45.031] 一次次的重蹈覆撤 一次次的再陷泥潭
[02:47.077] 我那些活在酒瓶里的朋友们啊
[02:50.702] 这世上的确有人活在酒瓶里
[02:54.656] 来吧 用那乐句击打我吧 一直维持下去
[02:56.758]
[03:28.764] 我来告诉你一个小秘密
[03:31.311] 如果你以后将会来找寻我的话
[03:33.092] 你知道我一定会在哪里的
[03:35.272] 就在那酒瓶中
[03:38.687] 转过身子
[03:39.709] 四处看看任何角落
[03:41.868] 如果你看到一位弟兄 看着就像将死之人
[03:44.986] 那定会是我
[03:47.272] 一起来唱吧
[03:48.271]
[03:56.871]
[04:05.293] 九元美金 或是酒一瓶
[04:07.352] 九元美金 拿来买酒一瓶
[04:09.520] 九元美金 拿来买酒一瓶
[04:11.637] 九元美金 拿来买酒一瓶
[04:13.771] 酒瓶啊
[04:15.535] 我所在意的一切 便只是那酒瓶
[04:19.855] 使我完全颠倒黑白 只为了那酒瓶
[04:24.537] 我想要的一切
[04:25.629] 说 我想要的一切
[04:26.428] 说 我想要的一切
[04:27.516] 说 我想要的一切 既然我已活在那酒瓶中
[04:30.762] 便是酒一瓶
[04:41.158] 的确如此
[04:42.264] 确实如此
[04:43.221] 真切如此
[04:44.677] 无疑如此 确切如此 的确如此 确实如此
[04:49.693] 真切如此 真切如此
