The Hollies - Louisiana Man - translation of the lyrics into French

Lyrics and translation The Hollies - Louisiana Man




Louisiana Man
L'homme de la Louisiane
At first Mom and Papa called the little boy Ned
Au début, maman et papa ont appelé le petit garçon Ned
Raised him on the banks of the riverbed
Il a grandi sur les rives du lit de la rivière
A houseboat tied to a big tall tree
Une maison flottante attachée à un grand arbre
A home for my Papa and my Mama and me
Un foyer pour mon papa, ma maman et moi
The clock strikes three Papa jumps to his feet
L'horloge sonne trois heures, papa se lève d'un bond
Already Mama′s cooking Papa something to eat
Maman prépare déjà quelque chose à manger à papa
At half past Papa he's a-ready to go
À trois heures et demie, papa est prêt à partir
He jumps in his bireau heading down the bayou
Il saute dans son bireau et se dirige vers le bayou
He′s got fishing lines strung across the Louisiana River
Il a des lignes de pêche tendues à travers la rivière de la Louisiane
Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat
Il faut attraper un gros poisson pour que nous mangions
He sets his traps catching anything he can
Il tend ses pièges, attrapant tout ce qu'il peut
Gotta make a living he's a Louisiana Man
Il faut gagner sa vie, c'est un homme de la Louisiane
Gotta make a living he's a Louisiana Man
Il faut gagner sa vie, c'est un homme de la Louisiane
Muskrat hides hangin′ by the dozen
Des peaux de rat musqué pendent par douzaines
Even got a lady makes a muskrat cousin
Il a même une dame qui fait un cousin de rat musqué
All the hides drying in the hot hot sun
Toutes les peaux sèchent sous le soleil brûlant
Tomorrow Papa′s gonna turn them into mon
Demain, papa va les transformer en monnaie
Call Mama Rita and my daddy is Jack
Appelez maman Rita et mon papa est Jack
Little baby brother on the floor is Matt
Le petit frère sur le sol est Matt
Green and Lynn are the family twins
Green et Lynn sont les jumeaux de la famille
Big brother Ed's on the bayou fishing
Le grand frère Ed est sur le bayou à la pêche
On the river floats Papa′s great big boat
Sur la rivière flotte le grand bateau de papa
That's how my Papa goes into town
C'est comme ça que mon papa va en ville
Takes every bit of the night and day
Il lui faut toute la nuit et toute la journée
To even reach the place where the people stay
Pour atteindre l'endroit vivent les gens
I can hardly wait ′till tomorrow comes around
J'ai hâte que demain arrive
That's the day my Papa takes his furs to town
C'est le jour mon papa emmène ses fourrures en ville
Papa promised me that I could go
Papa m'a promis que je pourrais y aller
He′d even let me see a cowboy show
Il me laisserait même voir un spectacle de cowboys
I'd seen the cowboys and Indians for the first time then
J'ai vu les cowboys et les indiens pour la première fois alors
Told my Papa gotta go again
J'ai dit à mon papa qu'il fallait y retourner
Papa said "Son we got a life to run
Papa a dit "Fils, nous avons une vie à mener
We'd come back again ′cos there′s work to be done"
On reviendra, parce qu'il y a du travail à faire"
Chorus
Refrain
