Nightmare #5 (Demo, Previously Unreleased) (Al Kooper Remaster 2008)
Cauchemar n°5 (Démo, Inédit) (Remaster Al Kooper 2008)
Kooper
Kooper
I was sixteen years of age when I fled my family′s house
J'avais seize ans quand j'ai fui la maison de ma famille
And I hitchhiked down the highway
Et j'ai fait de l'auto-stop sur l'autoroute
Tryin' to make my way down South
Essayer de me rendre dans le Sud
It was in the dead of winter and it chilled me to the bone
C'était en plein hiver et ça m'a glacé jusqu'aux os
But I was sixteen years of age
Mais j'avais seize ans
Just tryin to get a message home
J'essayais juste de faire passer un message à la maison
It was cold & It was windy & I was two days in my flight
Il faisait froid et il y avait du vent et j'étais en route depuis deux jours
And my shoes were almost wore through
Et mes chaussures étaient presque usées
And the day was almost night
Et le jour était presque la nuit
When the only car I saw that day came rollin into view
Quand la seule voiture que j'ai vue ce jour-là est arrivée
I just ran onto the highway for to see what I could do
J'ai couru sur l'autoroute pour voir ce que je pouvais faire
I waved my arms & hollered and the car it did slow down
J'ai agité les bras et crié et la voiture a ralenti
And I asked the man inside to help me
Et j'ai demandé à l'homme à l'intérieur de m'aider
For to get to the very next town
Pour aller jusqu'à la ville suivante
He nodded yes & I jumped inside
Il a hoché la tête oui et j'ai sauté à l'intérieur
I was thankful, safe & warm
J'étais reconnaissant, en sécurité et au chaud
But the stranger kept his eyes ahead
Mais l'étranger a gardé les yeux fixés sur la route
And drove straight into the storm
Et a roulé droit dans la tempête
I guess I musta fell asleep but I couldn′t tell how long
Je suppose que je me suis endormi, mais je ne pouvais pas dire combien de temps
When I woke up in a hurry with the feel of something wrong
Quand je me suis réveillé en hâte avec le sentiment de quelque chose de mal
The stranger was still driving and he did not say a word
L'étranger conduisait toujours et il n'a pas dit un mot
And I asked him many questions
Et je lui ai posé de nombreuses questions
But he seemed not to have heard
Mais il semblait ne pas avoir entendu
Then fear began to grab me & I reached out for the door
Puis la peur a commencé à me saisir et j'ai tendu la main vers la porte
When I almost had it open
Quand j'étais presque en train de l'ouvrir
Well, the car began to soar
Eh bien, la voiture a commencé à s'envoler
As it angled towards the heavens
Alors qu'elle s'inclinait vers le ciel
I just tried to catch my breath
J'ai juste essayé de reprendre mon souffle
For it was then I knew what time it was
Car c'est à ce moment-là que j'ai su quelle heure il était
And the stranger's name was Death
Et l'étranger s'appelait la Mort
