Lyrics and translation Asleep at the Wheel - The Girl I Left Behind Me (with The Avett Brothers)
Wrote
her
a
letter
when
I'd
known
better
and
asked
her
to
be
my
wife
Je
t'ai
écrit
une
lettre
quand
j'aurais
dû
mieux
faire,
et
je
t'ai
demandé
de
devenir
ma
femme
Along
came
a
feller
and
hit
me
on
the
smeller
and
it
almost
took
my
life
Un
type
est
arrivé
et
m'a
assommé,
et
ça
a
failli
me
tuer
Oh
that
girl,
that
pretty
little
girl
Oh
cette
fille,
cette
jolie
petite
fille
The
girl
I
left
behind
me
La
fille
que
j'ai
laissée
derrière
moi
The
rosy
cheeks
and
the
curly
hair
Les
joues
roses
et
les
cheveux
bouclés
The
girl
I
left
behind
me
La
fille
que
j'ai
laissée
derrière
moi
Rode
ahead
to
the
place
she
said
and
always
there
you'll
see
J'ai
continué
jusqu'à
l'endroit
où
tu
m'as
dit,
et
tu
seras
toujours
là
She
said
"I'm
true,
when
you
get
through,
ride
back
and
you
will
find
me."
Tu
as
dit
"Je
suis
vraie,
quand
tu
auras
fini,
reviens
et
tu
me
trouveras."
Oh
that
girl,
that
pretty
little
girl
Oh

fille,
cette
jolie

fille

babouin
laid,
ils
ont

Last
night
I
slept
in
a
sycamore
tree
with
the
wind
and
the
rain
all
around
