《川流熙攘》主题曲:It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp
时间：2019-01-03 作者：英语课 分类：电影英文歌曲
《生活不易》是2006年3月5日颁布的78届奥斯卡最佳电影歌曲的获奖作品、热播电影《川流熙攘》（Hustle & Flow）的主题曲。歌中用了大量的口语与俚语的说唱，生动形象地勾画出一个社会底层的小混混的生活环境与心理状态：他徘徊在第七街区，他看到的是穷人没饭吃，是尔虞我诈、枪林弹雨；只要你的价钱公道，无论是白人女孩还是黑人女孩，你尽可以左拥右抱；他说，即使知道不对也要继续他的游戏，就像NBA的球星科比-布莱恩特晚上的篮球比赛那样全力以赴……
同样是目前流行的说唱曲风，没有Nana唱的那首《Lonely》那样愤世嫉俗；同样是奥斯卡的影视歌曲，也的确比《断背山》的情歌更有些嚼头。人家得奖还是有道理呢，听听看？
You know it's hard out here for a pimp (you ain't knowing)
When he trying to get this money for the rent (you ain't knowing)
For the Cadillacs and gas money spent (you ain't knowing)
(1) Because a whole lot of bitches talking shit (you ain't knowing)
(2) Will have a whole lot of bitches talking shit (you ain't knowing)
(Djay)
In my eyes I done seen some crazy things in the streets
Gotta couple hoes working on the changes for me
But I gotta keep my game tight like Kobe on game night
Like taking from a ho don't know no better, I know that ain't right
Done seen people killed, done seen people deal
Done seen people live in poverty with no meals
It's fucked up where I live, but that's just how it is
It might be new to you, but it's been like this for years
It's blood sweat and tears when it come down to this shit
I'm trying to get rich before I leave up out this bitch
I'm trying to have things but it's hard for a pimp
But I'm praying and I'm hoping to God I don't slip, yeah
(Chorus)
(Djay)
Man it seems like I'm ducking dodging bullets everyday
Niggers hating on me cause I got, hoes on the tray
But I gotta stay paid, gotta stay above water
Couldn't keep up with my hoes, that's when shit got harder
North Memphis where I'm from, I'm 7th Street bound
Where niggers all the time end up lost and never found
Man these girls think we prove things, leave a big head
They come hoping every night, they don't end up being dead
Wait I got a snow bunny, and a black girl too
You pay the right price and they'll both do you
That's the way the game goes, gotta keep it strictly pimping
Gotta have my hustle tight, making change off these women, yeah
