[00:00.000] 作曲 : Bob Dylan [00:01.000] 作词 : Bob Dylan [00:09.86]The festival was over, the boys were all plannin’ for a fall [00:17.59]The cabaret was quiet except for the drillin’ in the wall [00:25.13]The curfew had been lifted and the gamblin’ wheel shut down [00:29.79]Anyone with any sense had already left town [00:33.40]He was standin’ in the doorway lookin’ like the Jack of Hearts [00:42.82]He moved across the mirrored room, “Set it up for everyone,” he said [00:50.44]Then everyone commenced to do what they were doin’ before he turned their heads [00:59.00]Then he walked up to a stranger and he asked him with a grin [01:03.09]“Could you kindly tell me, friend, what time the show begins?” [01:07.57]Then he moved into the corner, face down like the Jack of Hearts [01:17.90]Backstage the girls were playin’ five-card stud by the stairs [01:25.47]Lily had two queens, she was hopin’ for a third to match her pair [01:32.97]Outside the streets were fillin’ up, the window was open wide [01:37.10]A gentle breeze was blowin’, you could feel it from inside [01:41.70]Lily called another bet and drew up the Jack of Hearts [01:50.75]Big Jim was no one’s fool, he owned the town’s only diamond mine [01:58.08]He made his usual entrance lookin’ so dandy and so fine [02:06.05]With his bodyguards and silver cane and every hair in place [02:10.16]He took whatever he wanted to and he laid it all to waste [02:14.84]But his bodyguards and silver cane were no match for the Jack of Hearts [02:24.30]Rosemary combed her hair and took a carriage into town [02:31.64]She slipped in through the side door lookin’ like a queen without a crown [02:39.49]She fluttered her false eyelashes and whispered in his ear [02:43.26]“Sorry, darlin’, that I’m late,” but he didn’t seem to hear [02:47.84]He was starin’ into space over at the Jack of Hearts [02:56.78]“I know I’ve seen that face before,” Big Jim was thinkin’ to himself [03:04.34]“Maybe down in Mexico or a picture up on somebody’s shelf” [03:11.58]But then the crowd began to stamp their feet and the houselights did dim [03:16.31]And in the darkness of the room there was only Jim and him [03:20.51]Starin’ at the butterfly who just drew the Jack of Hearts [03:29.69]Lily was a princess, she was fair-skinned and precious as a child [03:36.85]She did whatever she had to do, she had that certain flash every time she smiled [03:44.28]She’d come away from a broken home, had lots of strange affairs [03:48.15]With men in every walk of life which took her everywhere [03:52.27]But she’d never met anyone quite like the Jack of Hearts [04:01.75]Rosemary started drinkin’ hard and seein’ her reflection in the knife [04:09.25]She was tired of the attention, tired of playin’ the role of Big Jim’s wife [04:16.92]She had done a lot of bad things, even once tried suicide [04:20.89]Was lookin’ to do just one good deed before she died [04:25.18]She was gazin’ to the future, riding on the Jack of Hearts [04:34.23]The hangin’ judge came in unnoticed and was being wined and dined [04:41.78]The drillin’ in the wall kept up but no one seemed to pay it any mind [04:49.00]It was known all around that Lily had Jim’s ring [04:53.32]And nothing would ever come between Lily and the king [04:57.58]No, nothin’ ever would except maybe the Jack of Heart [05:09.27]Lily washed her face, took her dress off and buried it away [05:16.35]“Has your luck run out?” she laughed at him, “Well, I guess you must have known it would someday [05:25.17]Be careful not to touch the wall, there’s a brand-new coat of paint [05:29.24]I’m glad to see you’re still alive, you’re lookin’ like a saint” [05:33.62]Down the hallway footsteps were comin’ for the Jack of Hearts [05:44.11]The backstage manager was pacing all around by his chair [05:51.29]“There’s something funny going on,” he said, “I can just feel it in the air” [05:58.81]He went to get the hangin’ judge, but the hangin’ judge was drunk [06:02.63]As the leading actor hurried by in the costume of a monk [06:06.71]There was no actor anywhere better than the Jack of Hearts [06:16.35]Lily’s arms were locked around the man that she dearly loved to touch [06:23.53]She forgot all about the man she couldn’t stand who hounded her so much [06:32.10]“I’ve missed you so,” she said to him, and he felt she was sincere [06:35.95]But just beyond the door he felt jealousy and fear [06:40.48]Just another night in the life of the Jack of Hearts [06:50.09]No one knew the circumstance but they say that it happened pretty quick [06:57.22]The door to the dressing room burst open and a cold revolver clicked [07:04.55]And Big Jim was standin’ there, ya couldn’t say surprised [07:08.47]Rosemary right beside him, steady in her eyes [07:12.59]She was with Big Jim but she was leanin’ to the Jack of Hearts [07:21.81]Two doors down the boys finally made it through the wall [07:29.26]And cleaned out the bank safe, it’s said that they got off with quite a haul [07:37.32]In the darkness by the riverbed they waited on the ground [07:41.85]For one more member who had business back in town [07:46.02]But they couldn’t go no further without the Jack of Hearts [07:57.82]The next day was hangin’ day, the sky was overcast and black [08:05.48]Big Jim lay covered up, killed by a penknife in the back [08:12.51]And Rosemary on the gallows, she didn’t even blink [08:16.53]The hangin’ judge was sober, he hadn’t had a drink [08:20.97]The only person on the scene missin’ was the Jack of Hearts [08:31.67]The cabaret was empty now, a sign said, “Closed for repair” [08:39.04]Lily had already taken all of the dye out of her hair [08:47.00]She was thinkin’ ’bout her father, who she very rarely saw [08:51.28]Thinkin’ ’bout Rosemary and thinkin’ about the law [08:55.71]But most of all she was thinkin’ ’bout the Jack of Hearts
