Lyrics and translation Bill Monroe - A Lonesome Road
I
bid
farewell
to
my
home
so
dear
J'ai
fait
mes
adieux
à
ma
maison
si
chère
And
started
down
life's
road
Et
j'ai
commencé
à
parcourir
le
chemin
de
la
vie
I
was
seekin'
fortune
miner,
dear
Je
cherchais
fortune,
ma
chère
Many
things
had
been
my
goal
Bien
des
choses
étaient
mon
but
There's
many
things
I've
seen
in
life
J'ai
vu
bien
des
choses
dans
la
vie
I
thought
I'd
like
to
roam
Je
pensais
que
j'aimerais
errer
But
I'd
give
them
all
and
more
if
I
Mais
je
donnerais
tout
et
plus
si
je
Could
get
off
this
lonesome
road
Pouvais
quitter
cette
route
solitaire
It's
a
lonesome
road
to
travel
on
C'est
une
route
solitaire
à
parcourir
Many
miles
of
sorrow
is
all
I've
known
Bien
des
kilomètres
de
tristesse,
c'est
tout
ce
que
j'ai
connu
But
I've
gone
too
far
to
turn
back
now
Mais
j'ai
trop
avancé
pour
faire
demi-tour
maintenant
From
this
lonesome,
lonesome
road
Sur
cette
route
solitaire,
solitaire
I
left
behind
a
love
that's
true
J'ai
laissé
derrière
moi
un
amour
véritable
She
cried
and
begged
me
not
to
go
Elle
a
pleuré
et
m'a
supplié
de
ne
pas
partir
But
my
foolish
pride
told
me
what
to
do
Mais
ma
fierté
insensée
m'a
dit
quoi
faire
And
put
me
on
this
lonesome
road
Et
m'a
mis
sur
cette
route
solitaire
Oh,
such
lonely
nights
I've
never
found
Oh,
je
n'ai
jamais
trouvé
de
nuits
aussi
solitaires
No
time
in
life
before
Jamais
de
mon
vivant
If
she
take
me
back,
I'd
settle
down
Si
elle
me
reprend,
je
m'installerai
And
travel
this
road
no
more
Et
je
ne
parcourrai
plus
cette
route
It's
a
lonesome
road
to
travel
on
C'est
une
route
solitaire
à
parcourir
Many
miles
of
sorrow
is
all
I've
known
Bien
des
kilomètres
de
tristesse,
c'est
tout
ce
que
j'ai
connu
But
I've
gone
too
far
to
turn
back
now
Mais
j'ai
trop
avancé
pour
faire
demi-tour
maintenant
From
this
lonesome,
lonesome
road
Sur
cette
route
solitaire,
solitaire
