- Traffic
- There were three men came out of the west
有三個人從西方遠道而來
their fortunes for to try
想要試試運氣發發財
And these three men made a solemn vow
這三個人許下了莊重的誓言
John Barleycorn must die
約翰·大麥粒必死無疑
They've plowed, they've sown
他們翻耕，他們播種
they've harrowed him in
鬆土深埋
Threw clods upon his head
土粒相覆
And these three men made a solemn vow
這三個人許下了莊重的誓言
John Barleycorn was dead
約翰·大麥粒必死無疑
他在地下沉睡許久
They've let him lie for a very long time
直到天國雨露施下潤澤
'til the rains from heaven did fall
小小的約翰爵士探頭現身，給大家來個一鳴驚人
And little Sir John sprung up his head and so amazed them all
他們容他長至施洗約翰節
They've let him stand 'til Midsummer's Day
直到他生病滿臉蒼白
'til he looked both pale and wan
小小的約翰爵士長大蓄起長須
And little Sir John's grown a long long beard and so become a man
他們雇了一群鐮刀客把他齊腰斬下
他們把他卷來綁去
They've hired men with their scythes so sharp to cut him off at the knee
行為實在慘無人道
They've rolled him and tied him by the way
他們雇了一群農叉客刺穿了他的心臟
serving him most barbarously
那個裝貨工對他最為凶殘
They've hired men with their sharp pitchforks who've pricked him to the heart
因為他把他捆到了馬車上
And the loader he has served him worse than that
他們把他軲轆轆運到池塘
For he's bound him to the cart
他們立了一個可憐的約翰·大麥粒的莊重誓言
他們雇了一群荊棘客把他皮肉分離
They've wheeled him around and around a field 'til they came onto a pond
磨坊主對他更是變本加厲
And there they made a solemn oath on poor John Barleycorn
他用兩塊石頭把他磨來磨去
They've hired men with their crabtree sticks to cut him skin from bone
小小的約翰爵士啊棕色木碗啊酒杯裡的白蘭地
And the miller he has served him worsethan that
小小的約翰爵士啊棕色木碗最終塑造了最有力量的人
For he's ground him between two stones
沒有小小的大麥粒獵人他吹不響號角獵不到狐狸
補鍋匠他修不好水壺補不好鍋子
And little Sir John and the nut brown bowl and his brandy in the glass
And little Sir John and the nut brown bowl proved the strongest man at last
The huntsman he can't hunt the fox nor so loudly to blow his horn
And the tinker he can't mend kettle or pots without a little barleycorn
