原歌词

[00:04.050]	Standing in the dock at Southampton
[00:07.550]	Trying to get to Holland or France
[00:11.050]	The man in the mac said, "You've got to go back."
[00:14.080]	You know they didn't even give us a chance
[00:16.680]	Christ you know it ain't easy
[00:20.150]	You know how hard it can be
[00:24.220]	The way things are going
[00:27.340]	They're gonna crucify me
[00:32.470]	Finally made the plane to Paris
[00:36.040]	Honey mooning down by the Seine
[00:39.170]	Peter Brown called to say
[00:40.750]	"You can make it OK
[00:42.470]	You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain"
[00:45.270]	Christ you know it ain't easy
[00:48.590]	You know how hard it can be
[00:52.590]	The way things are going
[00:55.670]	They're gonna crucify me
[01:00.330]	Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton
[01:04.240]	Talking in our beds for a week
[01:07.710]	The newspapers said, "Say what you doing in bed?"
[01:10.590]	I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace"
[01:13.310]	Christ you know it ain't easy
[01:16.760]	You know how hard it can be
[01:20.760]	The way things are going
[01:23.840]	They're gonna crucify me
[01:28.760]	Saving up your money for a rainy day
[01:32.400]	Giving all your clothes to charity
[01:35.930]	Last night the wife said
[01:37.770]	"Oh boy, when you're dead “
[01:39.540]	You don't take nothing with you
[01:40.980]	But your soul - think!"
[01:44.050]	Made a lightning trip to Vienna
[01:47.730]	Eating chocolate cake in a bag
[01:51.170]	The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head,
[01:54.550]	They look just like two gurus in drag"
[01:56.790]	Christ you know it ain't easy
[02:00.230]	You know how hard it can be
[02:04.050]	The way things are going
[02:07.460]	They're gonna crucify me
[02:12.260]	Caught an early plane back to London
[02:15.890]	Fifty acorns tied in a sack
[02:19.490]	The men from the press said, "We wish you success,
[02:22.950]	It's good to have the both of you back
[02:25.090]	Christ you know it ain't easy
[02:28.620]	You know how hard it can be
[02:32.780]	The way things are going
[02:35.920]	They're gonna crucify me
[02:39.720]	The way things are going
[02:42.830]	They're gonna crucify me

歌词翻译

[00:04.050]	站在南安普顿的码头上
[00:07.550]	想溜去荷兰或法国
[00:11.050]	“你们必须回去。”
[00:14.080]	“你知道他们一次机会都不给。”
[00:16.680]	老天你知道这多不容易
[00:20.150]	你知道这有多困难
[00:24.220]	现在发生的一切
[00:27.340]	快要折磨死我啦！
[00:32.470]	终于飞去了巴黎
[00:36.040]	在塞纳河旁度蜜月
[00:39.170]	彼得·布朗打来电话
[00:40.750]	说我们能摆平一切
[00:42.470]	我们可以在西班牙旁的直布罗陀结婚（英西两国在直布罗托有主权争分，不知此处有无深意）
[00:45.270]	老天，你知道这不容易
[00:48.590]	你知道这有多困难
[00:52.590]	现在发生的一切
[00:55.670]	快要折磨死我啦！
[01:00.330]	从巴黎开车到阿姆斯特丹的希尔顿酒店
[01:04.240]	我们在床上聊了一个星期（著名的床上和平运动）
[01:07.710]	媒体们问,“你们都在床上干啥呢?”
[01:10.590]	我说："我们只想寻得片刻安宁。”（peace有“平静、安宁”之意，也有“和平”之意）
[01:13.310]	老天你知道这多不容易
[01:16.760]	你知道这有多困难
[01:20.760]	现在发生的一切
[01:23.840]	快要折磨死我啦！
[01:28.760]	存点儿钱以备不时之需
[01:32.400]	把所有的衣物捐给慈善组织
[01:35.930]	昨晚我妻子说
[01:37.770]	噢亲爱的，你死去之后
[01:39.540]	除了你的灵魂
[01:40.980]	什么也别带走——想想吧!”
[01:44.050]	心血来潮去到维也纳
[01:47.730]	吃着袋子里的巧克力蛋糕（列侬和洋子在和平运动期间提出袋子主义“Bagism”的概念：将个人置于袋中，外界就不能根据肤色等表面特征评判个人；公众只能关注袋中人传达的信息，以此创造“纯粹沟通”的状态）
[01:51.170]	报纸说：“这女人让他神魂颠倒
[01:54.550]	他们就像两个穿女装的古鲁（guru是印度教或锡克教的宗教导师或领袖）
[01:56.790]	老天你知道这多不容易
[02:00.230]	你知道这有多困难
[02:04.050]	现在发生的一切
[02:07.460]	快要折磨死我啦！
[02:12.260]	乘早班机回到了伦敦
[02:15.890]	五十个橡子放在一起（列侬在阿姆斯特丹的希尔顿酒店的床上表示自己会将五十个橡子装在五十个信封里寄给五十个国家的首脑，让他们将橡子种下长成橡树，象征和平）
[02:19.490]	有个媒体人说:“我们都希望你们能成功，
[02:22.950]	"并且很高兴你们两个终于都回来了。”
[02:25.090]	老天你知道这多不容易
[02:28.620]	你知道这有多困难
[02:32.780]	现在发生的一切
[02:35.920]	快要折磨死我啦！
[02:39.720]	现在发生的一切
[02:42.830]	快要折磨死我啦！
