King Of The Road:《斷背山》插曲

電影《斷背山》的插曲，翻唱的是60年代鄉村音樂巨匠羅格-米勒（Roger Miller）的名作《公路之王》（King ofthe Road）。——一首人在旅途的歌。沒有電話，沒有泳池，沒有寵物，一輛能賣也能租的拖車，一個窮途末路又無所不能的男人。“我知道每一輛火車上的每一位機械師，以及他們的孩子，他們孩子的名字。我知道每一個村莊的刊物，以及周圍沒人的時候，哪扇門是沒上鎖的”……

King Of The Road
Rufus Wainwright

Trailers for sale or rent. Rooms to let fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets. I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah, but two hours of pushing broom.
Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room
I'm a man of means by no means. King of the road

Third boxcar, midnight train. Destination...bangor, Maine
Old worn out suit and shoes. I don't pay no union dues
I smoke old stogies I have found. Short, but not too big around
I'm a man of means by no means. King of the road

I know every engineer on every train
All of their children, and all of their names
And every handout in every town
And every lock that ain't locked when no one's around

I sing,
Trailers for sale or rent. Rooms to let fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets. I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah, but two hours of pushing broom
Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room
I'm a man of means by no means. King of the road

拖車供出售或出租，客房，讓五毛
沒有電話，沒有泳池，沒有寵物，我沒有得到任何香煙
我是一個，兩個推著掃帚買一小時
八十點四位房
我絕不是一個有錢人，caause我是王的道路
第三午夜火車棚車，目的地班戈，緬因州
舊衣服和鞋子穿了，我不付出就沒有工會會費
我抽煙，我發現老雪茄，短，但周圍沒有太大
我絕不是一個有錢人，因爲我是王的道路
