A pretty little girl came into sight

I bowed and smiled and asked her name

She said hold it bud I don't play that game

她说等等，但是我却不玩那样的游戏

I reached in my pocket and to her big surprise

我把手伸进衣兜，让她大吃一惊的是

There was lincoln staring her dead in the eyes

林肯直勾勾地盯着她

On a greenback greenback dollar bill

林肯在美钞，美钞，美钞上

Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll

美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条

She looked at me with that familiar desire

Her eyes lit up like they were on fire

她的眼前突然一亮，好像着火了一样

She said my name's flo and you're on the right track

她说我叫弗洛，你找对了

But look here daddy I wear furs on my back

但是看看这儿，爸爸，我身上穿着皮草

So if you want to have fun in this man's land

所以，如果你想在这个人的地盘上玩得愉快

Let lincoln and jackson start shaking hands

让林肯和杰克逊开始握手

On a greenback greenback dollar bill

都在美钞，美钞，美钞上

Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll

I didn't know what I was getting into

我不知道我遇到了什么

But I popped lincoln and jackson too

但是我也突然看到了林肯和杰克逊

I didn't mind seeing them fade out of sight

我不介意看着它们逐渐消失在视线里

I just knew I'd have some fun last night

我只知道我昨晚过得很愉快

Whenever you in town and looking for a thrill

无论何时你在镇上寻找刺激

If lincoln can't get it jackson sure will

如果林肯不行，那么杰克逊一定可以

On a greenback greenback dollar bill

在美钞，美钞，美钞上

Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll

美钞只是一张被涂成绿色的小纸条

We went to a nightspot where the lights were low

我们去了一家光线很暗的夜总会

Dined and danced and I was ready to go

吃饭和跳舞，我准备好要走

I got out of my seat and when flo arose

当弗洛出现的时候，我离开了座位

She said hold on daddy while I powder my nose

I sat back down with a smiling face

我微笑着继续坐下

While she went down to the powder place

她去了化妆间

With my greenback greenback dollar bill

我的美钞，美钞，美钞

Just a little piece of paper coated with chlorophyll

The music stopped and the lights came on

音乐停了，灯亮了起来

I looked around and saw I was all alone

我环顾四周，看见只有我独自一人

I didn't know how long flo had been gone

我不知道，弗洛已经离开多久了

But a nose powder sure didn't take that long

但是抹点粉肯定要不了那么长的时间

I left the place with tears in my eyes

我含着泪离开了那个地方

As I waved lincoln and Jackson a last goodbye

On a greenback greenback dollar bill
