Lyrics and translation Blind Willie McTell - East St. Louis Blues (Fare You Well)
I
walked
all
the
way
from
East
Saint
Louis
J'ai
marché
tout
le
chemin
depuis
East
Saint
Louis
I
never
had
but
that
one,
one
thin
dime
Je
n'avais
jamais
que
cette
pièce
de
dix
cents
I
laid
my
head
in
a
New
York
woman's
lap
J'ai
posé
ma
tête
sur
les
genoux
d'une
femme
de
New
York
She
laid
her
little
cute
head
in
mine
Elle
a
posé
sa
petite
tête
mignonne
sur
la
mienne
She
tried
to
make
me
bleed
by
the
rattlings
of
her
tongue
Elle
a
essayé
de
me
faire
saigner
avec
les
cliquetis
de
sa
langue
The
sun
would
never,
never
shine
Le
soleil
ne
brillera
jamais,
jamais
I
pawned
my
sword
and
I
pawned
my
chain
J'ai
mis
mon
épée
en
gage
et
j'ai
mis
ma
chaîne
en
gage
Well
I
pawned
myself
but
I
fell
to
shame
Eh
bien,
je
me
suis
mis
en
gage,
mais
j'ai
sombré
dans
la
honte
I
tried
to
see
you
in
the
fall
J'ai
essayé
de
te
voir
à
l'automne
When
you
didn't
have
no
man
at
all
Quand
tu
n'avais
pas
d'homme
du
tout
I'd
love
to
meet
you
in
the
spring
when
the
bluebird's
almost
ready
to
sing
J'aimerais
te
rencontrer
au
printemps
quand
le
geai
bleu
est
presque
prêt
à
chanter
Faree,
honey,
faree
well
Va,
ma
chérie,
va
You
can
shake
like
a
cannon
ball,
get
out
and
learn
that
old
Georgia
crawl
Tu
peux
te
secouer
comme
un
boulet
de
canon,
sors
et
apprends
ce
vieux
crawl
de
Géorgie
Faree,
honey,
faree
well(play
it
boy...)And
I
laid
my
head
in
a
barroom
door
Va,
ma
chérie,
va
(joue-le,
mon
garçon...)
Et
j'ai
posé
ma
tête
sur
une
porte
de
bar
And
I
can't
get
drunk,
drunk
no
more
Et
je
ne
peux
plus
me
soûler,
me
soûler
plus
Now
if
you
can't
do
the
sugary
get
yourself
on
out
of
this
house
to
me
Maintenant,
si
tu
ne
peux
pas
faire
le
sucre,
va-t'en
de
cette
maison
Faree,
baby,
faree
well
Va,
ma
chérie,
va
I
tried
to
see
you
in
the
spring
when
the
bluebird's
almost
ready
to
sing
J'ai
essayé
de
te
voir
au
printemps
quand
le
geai
bleu
est
presque
prêt
à
chanter
Faree,
honey,
faree
well
Va,
ma
chérie,
va
And
I
walked
on
back
to
East
Saint
Louis
Et
je
suis
retourné
à
East
Saint
Louis
Never
had
but
that
one,
one
thin
dime
Je
n'avais
jamais
que
cette
pièce
de
dix
cents
