[00:00.00] 作词 : Dylan [00:00.30]The festival was over, the boys were all plannin’ for a fall [00:43.83]The cabaret was quiet except for the drillingin the wall [00:51.67]The curfew had been lifted and the gamblin’ wheel shut down [00:55.69]Anyone with any sense had already left town [00:59.29]He was standin’ in the doorway lookin’ like the Jack of Hearts [01:05.46] [01:07.10]He moved across the mirrored room, “Set it up for everyone,” he said [01:15.07]Then everyone commenced to do what they were doin’ before he turned their heads [01:22.59]Then he walked up to a stranger and he asked him with a grin [01:26.54]“Could you kindly tell me, friend, what time the show begins?” “ [01:30.25]Then he moved into the corner, face down like the Jack of Hearts [01:35.19] [01:38.01]Backstage the girls were playin’ five-card stud by the stairs [01:45.76]Lily had two queens, she was hopin’ for a third to match her pair [01:53.65]Outside the streets were fillin’ up, the window was open wide [01:57.36]A gentle breeze was blowin’, you could feel it from inside [02:01.07]Lily called another bet and drew up the Jack of Hearts [02:06.22] [02:09.09]Big Jim was no one’s fool, he owned the town’s only diamond mine [02:16.51]He made his usual entrance lookin’ so dandy and so fine [02:24.16]With his bodyguards and silver cane and every hair in place [02:27.95]He took whatever he wanted to and he laid it all to waste [02:31.69]But his bodyguards and silver cane were no match for the Jack of Hearts [02:39.13] [02:39.68]Rosemary combed her hair and took a carriage into town [02:47.18]She slipped in through the side door lookin’ like a queen without a crown [02:54.78]She fluttered her false eyelashes and whispered in his ear [02:58.80]“Sorry, darlin’, that I’m late,” but he didn’t seem to hear “ [03:02.43]He was starin’ into space over at the Jack of Hearts [03:07.79] [03:10.32]“I know I’ve seen that face before,” Big Jim was thinkin’ to himself “ [03:17.90]“Maybe down in Mexico or a picture up on somebody’s shelf” [03:25.40]But then the crowd began to stamp their feet and the houselights did dim [03:29.47]And in the darkness of the room there was only Jim and him [03:33.21]Starin’ at the butterfly who just drew the Jack of Hearts [03:38.30] [03:41.51]Lily was a princess, she was fair-skinned and precious as a child [03:48.49]She did whatever she had to do, she had that certain flash every time she smiled [03:56.01]She’d come away from a broken home, had lots of strange affairs [03:59.96]With men in every walk of life which took her everywhere [04:03.56]But she’d never met anyone quite like the Jack of Hearts [04:08.81] [04:11.35]The hangin’ judge came in unnoticed and was being wined and dined [04:18.84]The drillin’ in the wall kept up but no one seemed to pay it any mind [04:26.23]It was known all around that Lily had Jim’s ring [04:30.26]And nothing would ever come between Lily and the king [04:34.07]No, nothin’ ever would except maybe the Jack of Hearts [04:38.83] [04:41.62]Rosemary started drinkin’ hard and seein’ her reflection in the knife [04:49.14]She was tired of the attention, tired of playin’ the role of Big Jim’s wife [04:56.38]She had done a lot of bad things, even once tried suicide [05:00.56]Was lookin’ to do just one good deed before she died [05:04.22]She was gazin’ to the future, riding on the Jack of Hearts [05:09.23] [05:11.87]Lily washed her face, took her dress off and buried it away [05:19.19]“Has your luck run out?” she laughed at him, “Well, I guess you must have known it would someday “ [05:26.92]Be careful not to touch the wall, there’s a brand-new coat of paint [05:30.65]I’m glad to see you’re still alive, you’re lookin’ like a saint” [05:34.34]Down the hallway footsteps were comin’ for the Jack of Hearts [05:39.04] [05:41.70]The backstage manager was pacing all around by his chair [05:49.15]“There’s something funny going on,” he said, “I can just feel it in the air” “ [05:56.49]He went to get the hangin’ judge, but the hangin’ judge was drunk [06:00.33]As the leading actor hurried by in the costume of a monk [06:03.83]There was no actor anywhere better than the Jack of Hearts [06:09.18] [06:11.61]No one knew the circumstance but they say that it happened pretty quick [06:19.14]The door to the dressing room burst open and a cold revolver clicked [06:26.35]And Big Jim was standin’ there, ya couldn’t say surprised [06:30.26]Rosemary right beside him, steady in her eyes [06:33.92]She was with Big Jim but she was leanin’ to the Jack of Hearts [06:38.47] [06:41.39]Two doors down the boys finally made it through the wall [06:48.79]And cleaned out the bank safe, it’s said that they got off with quite a haul [06:56.10]In the darkness by the riverbed they waited on the ground [07:00.15]For one more member who had business back in town [07:04.07]But they couldn’t go no further without the Jack of Hearts [07:08.27] [07:11.33]The next day was hangin’ day, the sky was overcast and black [07:18.88]Big Jim lay covered up, killed by a penknife in the back [07:26.30]And Rosemary on the gallows, she didn’t even blink [07:30.01]The hangin’ judge was sober, he hadn’t had a drink [07:33.51]The only person on the scene missin’ was the Jack of Hearts [07:38.31] [07:41.16]The cabaret was empty now, a sign said, “Closed for repair” [07:48.42]Lily had already taken all of the dye out of her hair [07:55.97]She was thinkin’ ’bout her father, who she very rarely saw [07:59.73]Thinkin’ ’bout Rosemary and thinkin’ about the law [08:03.78]But most of all she was thinkin’ ’bout the Jack of Hearts
