There's a crooked street in Houston town,
Ada jalan bengkok di kota Houston,
It's a well born path I've traveled down
Ini adalah jalan yang sudah lama kutempuh,
Now there's ruin in my name, I wish I never got off the train,
Sekarang namaku tercemar, aku berharap tidak pernah turun dari kereta,
I wished I'd listened to the words you said.
Aku berharap aku mendengarkan kata-katamu.

Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin
Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin
Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin
You'll be lost and never found
Kau akan tersesat dan takkan pernah ditemukan
You can never turn around
Kau takkan bisa berbalik lagi
Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin.

Once I held you in my arms, I was sure
Dulu aku memelukmu, aku yakin
But I took that silent stare through the guilded door
Tapi aku menatap diam melewati pintu berlapis emas
The desire to have much more, all the glitter and the roar,
Keinginan untuk memiliki lebih, semua kilau dan gemuruh,
I know this is where the sidewalk ends.
Aku tahu ini adalah tempat jalan setapak berakhir.

Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin
Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin
Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin
You'll be lost and never found
Kau akan tersesat dan takkan pernah ditemukan
You can never turn around
Kau takkan bisa berbalik lagi
Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin.

When I was young I thought only of getting out
Saat aku muda, aku hanya berpikir untuk pergi
I said goodbye to my street, goodbye to my house
Aku mengucapkan selamat tinggal pada jalan ku, selamat tinggal pada rumah ku
Give a man gin, give a man cards, give an inch he takes a yard,
Berikan seorang pria gin, berikan kartu, beri sedikit dia akan mengambil banyak,
And I rue the day that I stepped off this train.
Dan aku menyesali hari saat aku turun dari kereta ini.

Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin
Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin
Don't go down to Fannin Street
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin
You'll be lost and never found
Kau akan tersesat dan takkan pernah ditemukan
You can never turn around
Kau takkan bisa berbalik lagi
Don't go down to Fannin Street.
Jangan pergi ke Jalan Fannin.
