[Verse 1]
They hung a sign up in our town
"If you live it up, you won't live it down"
So she left Monte Rio, son [*1]
Just like a bullet leaves a gun
With her charcoal eyes and Monroe hips [*2]
She went and took that California trip
Oh, the moon was gold, her hair like wind
Said, "Don't look back, just come on, Jim"
[Chorus]
Oh, you got to hold on, hold on
You gotta hold on
Take my hand, I'm standing right here
You gotta hold on
しっかりつかまって、そのまま
手放さないで
私の手を握って、私はここにいる
あきらめないで
[Verse 2]
Well, he gave her a dimestore watch
And a ring made from a spoon
Everyone's looking for someone to blame
When you share my bed
You share my name
Well, go ahead and call the cops
You don't meet nice girls in coffee shops
She said, "Baby, I still love you"
Sometimes there's nothin' left to do
[Chorus]
Oh, but you got to hold on, hold on
Babe, you gotta hold on
And take my hand, I'm standing right here
You gotta hold on
でも、しっかりつかまって、そのまま
手放さないで
私の手を握って、私はここにいる
あきらめないで
[Verse 3]
Well, God bless your crooked little heart
St. Louis got the best of me [*3]
I miss your broken china voice
How I wish you were still here with me
Oh, you build it up, you wreck it down
Then you burn your mansion
To the ground
Oh, there's nothing left to keep you here
But when you're falling behind
In this big blue world
[Chorus]
Oh, you've got to hold on, hold on
Babe, you gotta hold on
Take my hand, I'm standing right here
You gotta hold on
しっかりつかれ、そのまま
手放すな
オレの手を握って、オレはここにいる
あきらめるな
[Verse 4]
Down by the Riverside motel
It's ten below and falling
By a ninety-nine-cent store
She closed her eyes and started swaying
But it's so hard to dance that way
When it's cold and there's no music
Oh, your old hometown's so far away
But inside your head
There's a record that's playing
[Chorus]
A song called "Hold On", hold on
Babe, you gotta hold on
Take my hand, I'm standing right there
You gotta hold on
You gotta hold on, hold on
Babe, you gotta hold on
Take my hand, I'm standing right there
You gotta hold on
You got to hold on, hold on
Babe, you gotta hold on
And take my hand, I'm standing right here
You gotta hold on
You got to hold on, hold on
Babe, you gotta hold on
And take my hand, I'm standing right here
You gotta hold on
[Outro]
You gotta hold on
You gotta hold on
You gotta hold on
You gotta hold on
You gotta hold on, baby
You gotta hold on, girl
You gotta hold on
You gotta hold on
[Verse 1]
Down in Mexicali [*1]
There's a crazy little place
That I know
Where the drinks are hotter
Than the chili sauce
And the boss is a cat named Joe
[Chorus]
He wears a red bandanna
Plays a cool piano
In a honky-tonk [*2]
Down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash
And a black mustache
In a honky-tonk
Down in Mexico
[Verse 2]
Well, the first time
That I saw him
He was sittin' on a piano stool
I said "Tell me, man
When does the fun begin?"
He just winked his eye and said
"Man, be cool"
[Chorus]
He wears a red bandanna
Plays a cool piano
In a honky-tonk
Down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash
And a black mustache
In a honky-tonk
Down in Mexico
[Verse 3]
In Mexico
All of a sudden in walks a chick
In Mexico
Joe starts playing on
A Latin Kick [*3]
In Mexico
Around her waist
She wore three fishnets
In Mexico
She started dancin'
With the castanets
In Mexico
I didn't know just what to expect
In Mexico
She threw her arms around my neck
In Mexico
We started dancin'
All around the floor
In Mexico
And then she did a dance
I never saw before
[Chorus]
He wears a red bandanna
Plays a cool piano
In a honky-tonk
Down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash
And a black mustache
In a honky-tonk
Down in Mexico
[Outro]
Hey, como est usted senorita
Come with me to Mexico City
You can get your kicks in Mexico
Hahaha, crazy
Come with me, baby, come with me
Ah we can watch
The bull fights together
Come with me, senorita
Yeah... yeah...
[Verse 1]
Let's meet up far away
Where astronauts and gravity
Have opened up the atmosphere
We'll be so safe up here
Navigating the space
We'll create our own star
And I'll name it after you
We'll be so calm up there
We'll fly around with the quiet air
The sun will bring us 'round again
Inhaling and orbiting [*]
Our great planet will fit on
The tip of your thumb
You'll say I finally see how time stops
And everything that hurts us drops off
[Chorus]
I'll be what you want
When everything is gone
Let the world disappear
There are places up here we can hide
We'll be safe way up high
Somewhere only we can find
[Verse 2]
I know it's safe from being
Called out or evaluated
And people change on a whim
So cue the violence
Let's go rescue a planet
Who's been thrown away (Yeah)
You'll name it after me
'Cause after
All we're only one triumphant
Bang away
From resting in infinity
Or darkness or some brighter place
Let's not waste one more second on
Caring about
Trying to figure out what looks right
'Cause that can't take away
That you're mine
[Chorus]
I'll be what you want
When everything is gone
Let the world disappear
There are places up here we can hide
Somewhere only we can find
I'll be what you want
When everything is gone
Let the world disappear
There are places up here we can hide
We'll be safe way up high
Somewhere only we can find
[Bridge]
My, suddenly the stars are flashlights
The universe will make your eyes shine
Can't you feel away that time stops?
Everything that hurts drops off
[Chorus]
Now I'll be what you want
When everything is gone
Let the world disappear
There are places up here we can hide
Somewhere only we can find
I'll be what you want
When everything is gone
Let the world disappear
There are places up here we can hide
We'll be safe way up high
Somewhere only we can find
You know
I know my little woman's so lovin'
I think her lovin' awful fine
I go crazy 'bout the way
She got her rubbin'
'Couse every night and day
It run across my mind

She packed my bags last night
Pre-flight
Zero hour, 9 a.m.
And I'm gonna be high
As a kite by then
彼女が昨晩
出発前の荷造りをしてくれた
打ち上げは午前9時
ボクは高く上って行くだろう
凧のように
I miss the Earth so much
I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
地球がとても恋しい
妻が恋しい
孤独なもんさ
時間の流れも分からない宇宙飛行
And I think it's gonna be
A long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me
'Round again to find
I'm not the man they think
I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burnin' out
His fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be
A long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me
'Round again to find
I'm not the man they think
I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burnin' out
His fuse up here alone
And all the science
I don't understand
It's just my job five days a week
A rocket man
A rocket man
科学すべてに
詳しいわけじゃない
ボクには週5日のただの仕事さ
ロケットマンなんて
And I think it's gonna be
A long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me
'Round again to find
I'm not the man they think
I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burnin' out
His fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be
A long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me
'Round again to find
I'm not the man they think
I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burnin' out
His fuse up here alone
Ooh, nobody knows it
When I was down
I was your clown
Ooh, nobody knows it
(Nobody knows it)
Right from the start
I gave you my heart
Oh, I gave you my heart
Ooh, nobody knows it
When I was down
I was your clown
Ooh, nobody knows it
(Nobody knows it)
Right from the start
I gave you my heart
Oh, I gave you my heart
Don't go breaking my heart
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my
Don't go breaking my
Don't go breaking my heart
Don't go breaking my
Don't go breaking my
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
Don't go breaking my
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
Don't go breaking my
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
Don't go breaking my
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
Don't go breaking my
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
Don't go breaking my
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
I remember when rock was young
Me and Susie had so much fun
Holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy
And a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
Was doing a thing called
The Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were rocking
'Round the clock [*]
We were hopping and bopping
To the Crocodile Rock
Well, Crocodile Rocking
Is something shocking
When your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time
And I guess I never will
Oh, lawdy mama, those Friday nights
When Susie wore her dresses tight
And the Crocodile Rocking
Was out of sight
But the years went by
And the rock just died
Susie went and left us
For some foreign guy
Long nights crying
By the record machine
Dreaming of my Chevy
And my old blue jeans
But they'll never kill the thrills
We've got
Burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
We really thought
The Crocodile Rock would last
Well, Crocodile Rocking
Is something shocking
When your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time
And I guess I never will
Oh, lawdy mama, those Friday nights
When Susie wore her dresses tight
And the Crocodile Rocking
Was out of sight
I remember when rock was young
Me and Susie had so much fun
Holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy
And a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
Was doing a thing called
The Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were rocking
'Round the clock
We were hopping and bopping
To the Crocodile Rock
Well, Crocodile Rocking
Is something shocking
When your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time
And I guess I never will
Oh, lawdy mama, those Friday nights
When Susie wore her dresses tight
And the Crocodile Rocking
Was out of sight
It's a little bit funny
This feelin' inside
I'm not one of those
Who can easily hide
I don't have much money
But boy if I did
I'd buy a big house
Where we both could live
If I was a sculptor, heh
But then again, no
Or a man who makes potions
In a travelin' show, oh
I know it's not much
But it's the best I can do
My gift is my song
And this one's for you
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple, but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is
While you're in the world
I sat on the roof
And kicked off the moss
Well, a few of the verses
Well, they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind
While I wrote this song
It's for people like you
That keep it turned on
So excuse me forgettin'
But these things I do
You see I've forgotten
If they're green or they're blue
Anyway, the thing is
What I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes
I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody
This is the song
It may be quite simple, but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is
While you're in the world

どうも、こんにちは。
Jeremiah was a bullfrog
Was a good friend of mine
I never understood
A single word he said
But I helped him a-drink his wine
And he always had
Some mighty fine wine
Singin'
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes
In the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
世界に喜びを
少年少女たちみんな
真っ青な海の魚へ喜びを
オマエとオレに喜びを
You know I love the ladies
Love to have my fun
I'm a high night flier
And a rainbow rider (ha ha ha)
And a straight-shooting son of a gun
Alright
I said a straight shootin' son of a gun
Huh huh uh-huh hi
I know this much is true
Huh huh uh-huh hi
I know this much is true
分かってる、これだけは本当だと
With a thrill in my head
And a pill on my tongue
Dissolve the nerves
That have just begun
Listening to Marvin all night long
This is the sound of my soul
This is the sound
Huh huh uh-huh hi
I know this much is true
Huh huh uh-huh hi
I know this much is true
分かってる、これだけは本当だと
This much is true
これだけは本当なんだ
This much is true
This much is true
I know, I know
I know this much is true
This much is true
This much is true
This much is true
This much is true
I know this much is true
This much is true
This much is true
I know this much is true
If you want me to love you
Maybe I will
Believe me woman
It ain't no big deal
Ah you need love now
just as bad as I do
Make's me no difference now
Who you give your thing to
It's your thing (it's your thing)
Do what you wanna do
I can't tell you who to sock it to
It's your thing (it's your thing)
Do what you wanna do now
I can't tell you who to sock it to
Ah, it's your thing
Do what you wanna do
I can't tell you who to sock it to
Hit me man
It's your thing (it's your thing)
Do what you wanna do
I can't tell you who to sock it to
I'm not trying to run your life
I know you wanna do what's right
Ah give your love girl
To whoever you choose
How can you lose
With the stuff you use now
It's your thing (it's your thing)
Do what you wanna do
I can't tell you who to sock it to
It's your thing (it's your thing)
Do what you wanna do
Don't let me tell you
Who to sock it to
Only you
Can make, oh, this world seem right
Only you
Can make the darkness bright
Only you
And you alone can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you
Only you
Can make, oh, this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you
Only you
Can make, oh, this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you
(One and only you)
