(一 二 三)
(One, Two, Three)
帽子落在他下巴
His hat rests upon his chin
桌面卧著剑一把
A sword lies flat upon the desk
坐姿就像在站马
Sitting posture like he's riding a horse
也没啥话
Not much to say
我一直盯著他
I've been staring at him
他的一举一动
Every move he makes
呆了好几个时辰
I’ve been stuck here for hours
这汉子好有空
This man surely has the time
人来人往啊
People come and go, oh
神来慎防啊
Be careful, the divine is coming, ah
从何而来
Where do you come from?
来去无踪
Disappearing without a trace
他像是个江湖中人
He seems like a wanderer of the rivers and lakes
我绝不是糊弄人
I surely don't play tricks on people
我端了一壶茶
I pour a pot of tea
问大侠吃些啥
And ask the hero what he wants to eat
大侠一句不回答
The hero responds not a word
真的可真潇洒
Truly, he's so carefree
好有型啊
So stylish, indeed
他冒著一股正气
He strides in with a sense of righteousness,
他传来一身正义
He brings a whole aura of justice,
做到贵客的生意
Conducting business like a treasured guest,
是我福气
What a blessing it is for me!
冲进来一帮人
A crowd rushes in,
来头不是用饭的
Their intentions aren't just for a meal,
一拳砸坏扇大门
A fist shatters the grand doors,
酒菜都给弄翻了
Food and drink are thrown about,
人来人往啊
As people come and go, ah,
神来慎防啊
Beware of the divine, ah!
从何而来
From where do I come
来去无踪
Gone without a trace
他像是个江湖中人
He's like a wanderer of the rivers and lakes
我绝不是糊弄人
I would never fool anyone
我端了一壶茶
I serve a pot of tea
问大侠吃些啥
And ask the hero what he would eat
大侠一句不回答
The hero does not reply a single word
真的可真潇洒
Truly, how carefree he is
好有型啊
So stylish, oh
场面冷而无声
The scene is cold and silent
门外飘一阵风
A breeze whispers outside the door
吹来了一位大师
A master has arrived on the breeze
大师说别干傻事
The master says don't do foolish things
请他们立地成佛
Ask them to attain enlightenment right here and now.
恩怨不会成正果
Bitter grudges won't bear fruit
这伙听不懂道理
These fellows just can't grasp the truth.
只会动拳和暴力
Only know how to fight with fists and violence.
我好想早点打烊
I really want to close up early.
老大喊咱一起上
The boss shouts for us to go together
在千钧一发之际
At the moment where everything hangs by a thread
醒来了那位侠客
Awakened is the wandering hero,
抬头就一句话
Lifting his head, he speaks a word,
大哥你认错人了
Bro, you've got the wrong guy,
嘿嘿嘿 嘿嘿嘿 (江湖中人)
Eh-eh, eh-eh (a man of the rivers and lakes),
嘿嘿嘿 嘿嘿嘿 (好有型)
Eh-eh, eh-eh (so stylish),
嘿嘿嘿 嘿嘿嘿 (江湖中人)
Eh-eh, eh-eh (a man of the rivers and lakes),
嘿嘿嘿 嘿
Eh-eh, eh,
江湖中人
A man of the rivers and lakes,
好有型啊
So stylish, oh yeah.
