[00:00.00]	作曲 : Charles/Richard
[00:00.699]	作词 : Charles/Richard
[00:02.98]	As I was walking down the street last night
[00:05.17]	A pretty little girl came into sight
[00:08.19]	I bowed and smiled and asked her name
[00:11.25]	She said, "Hold it bud, I don't play that game"
[00:14.37]	I reached in my pocket, and to her big surprise
[00:17.27]	There was Lincoln staring her dead in the eyes.
[00:20.05][00:49.72][01:19.04][02:36.07]	On a greenback, greenback dollar bill
[00:25.61][00:55.22][01:24.56][02:12.15][02:41.52]	Just a little piece of paper, coated with chlorophyll
[00:32.12]	She looked at me with that familiar desire
[00:35.09]	Her eyes lit up like they were on fire
[00:38.01]	She said, "My name's Flo, and you're on the right track,
[00:40.78]	But look here, daddy, I wear furs on my back,
[00:44.06]	So if you want to have fun in this man's land,
[00:47.06]	Let Lincoln and Jackson start shaking hands."
[01:01.72]	I didn't know what I was getting into
[01:04.62]	But I popped Lincoln and Jackson, too
[01:07.58]	I didn't mind seeing them fade out of sight,
[01:10.65]	I just knew I'd have some fun last night
[01:13.57]	Whenever you in town and looking for a thrill
[01:16.56]	If Lincoln can't get it, Jackson sure will
[01:48.96]	We went to a nightspot where the lights were low
[01:51.75]	Dined and danced, and I was ready to go
[01:54.93]	I got out of my seat, and when Flo arose,
[01:58.23]	She said, "Hold on daddy, while I powder my nose"
[02:00.99]	I sat back down with a smiling face,
[02:03.94]	While she went down to the powder place
[02:06.35]	With my greenback, greenback dollar bill
[02:18.52]	The music stopped and the lights came on,
[02:21.44]	I looked around and saw I was all alone
[02:24.32]	I didn't know how long Flo had been gone
[02:27.23]	But a nose powder sure didn't take that long
[02:30.17]	I left the place with tears in my eyes
[02:33.15]	As I waved Lincoln and Jackson a last goodbye

歌词翻译

[00:02.98]	昨晚，当我走在街上的时候
[00:05.17]	一个漂亮的小女孩出现在了我的视线中
[00:08.19]	我弯下腰，对着她微笑，还问了她的名字
[00:11.25]	她说等等，但是我却不玩那样的游戏
[00:14.37]	我把手伸进衣兜，让她大吃一惊的是
[00:17.27]	林肯直勾勾地盯着她
[00:20.05]	林肯在美钞，美钞，美钞上
[00:25.61]	美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条
[00:32.12]	她用那种熟悉的渴望的眼神望着我
[00:35.09]	她的眼前突然一亮，好像着火了一样
[00:38.01]	她说我叫弗洛，你找对了
[00:40.78]	但是看看这儿，爸爸，我身上穿着皮草
[00:44.06]	所以，如果你想在这个人的地盘上玩得愉快
[00:47.06]	让林肯和杰克逊开始握手
[00:49.72]	都在美钞，美钞，美钞上
[00:55.22]	美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条
[01:01.72]	我不知道我遇到了什么
[01:04.62]	但是我也突然看到了林肯和杰克逊
[01:07.58]	我不介意看着它们逐渐消失在视线里
[01:10.65]	我只知道我昨晚过得很愉快
[01:13.57]	无论何时你在镇上寻找刺激
[01:16.56]	如果林肯不行，那么杰克逊一定可以
[01:19.04]	在美钞，美钞，美钞上
[01:24.56]	美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条
[01:48.96]	我们去了一家光线很暗的夜总会
[01:51.75]	吃饭和跳舞，我准备好要走
[01:54.93]	当弗洛出现的时候，我离开了座位
[01:58.23]	她在我的鼻子上抹了一些粉，说道，等等，爸爸
[02:00.99]	我微笑着继续坐下
[02:03.94]	她去了化妆间
[02:06.35]	我的美钞，美钞，美钞
[02:12.15]	只是被涂成绿色的小纸条
[02:18.52]	音乐停了，灯亮了起来
[02:21.44]	我环顾四周，看见只有我独自一人
[02:24.32]	我不知道，弗洛已经离开多久了
[02:27.23]	但是抹点粉肯定要不了那么长的时间
[02:30.17]	我含着泪离开了那个地方
[02:33.15]	我挥手和美钞，美钞，美钞上的
[02:36.07]	林肯和杰克逊挥手告别
[02:41.52]	美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条
