The Man from Harlem - Cab Calloway (凯伯·凯洛威)

以下歌词翻译由微信翻译提供

It was up at Mike's the other night

有一天晚上就在麦克家

There was really quite a sight

眼前真的是一片景象

Gather round folks while I give you all the lowdown

朋友们快来吧我要告诉你们真相

Tables were filled with gaudy frails

桌子上摆满了华丽的装饰品

Chewing on their fingernails;

啃他们的指甲；

They were waiting for the man from Harlem

他们在等一个来自哈莱姆区的男人

Drinks were served six bits a throw

饮料一杯六块

Things were moving kind of slow

一切进展缓慢

Everybody's nerves were getting jumpy

每个人都神经紧张

All at once the room was still

突然间房间一片寂静

Men forgot all about their bill

人们把账单忘得一干二净

Who should enter but the man from Harlem

除了哈莱姆区的那个人谁也不能进来

Everybody rolled their eyes

每个人都翻白眼

Women starting heaving sighs

女人开始叹息

Someone hollered \"Music lights and gin \"

有人大喊音乐灯和杜松子酒

Everybody cleared a space

每个人都腾出一点空间

They had big broad smiles on every face

每个人的脸上都洋溢着灿烂的笑容

How they all loved to see the man from Harlem

他们都喜欢看这个来自哈莱姆区的男人

When he started in to step

当他开始迈出那一步

He filled everyone with plenty pep

他让每个人都充满活力

He twitched and squirmed; it just was a dirty shame

他扭动着身体，真是奇耻大辱

Everyone was in a daze

每个人都茫然无措

Women watched him with amaze

女人们惊奇地看着他

Each one said she'd have the man from Harlem

每个人都说她想和哈莱姆区的那个男人在一起

He looked over in the corner

他望向角落

And saw a couple of frails and they sure did look kinda low

看到了几个敌人他们看起来确实有点低落

Another cat walked up and said to the man from Harlem

另一只猫走上前来对来自哈莱姆区的男人说

\"Go over there and see what's the matter with them girls \"

到那边去看看那些姑娘怎么了

And they said \"I'm kinda low \"

他们说我有点低落

And he said \"I've got just what you need:

他说我有你需要的东西

Come on sisters light up on these ***** and get high and forget about everything \"

来吧姐妹们一起嗨起来忘记一切
