Lyrics and translation Bob Dylan - Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues (Take 3, Rehearsal)




Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues (Take 3, Rehearsal)
Comme les Blues de Tom Pouce (Prise 3, répétition)
When you're lost in the rain in Juarez when it's Easter time, too
Quand tu te retrouves sous la pluie à Juarez, pendant le temps de Pâques aussi,
And your gravity fails and negativity don't pull you through
Et que ta gravité te lâche et que la négativité ne te tire pas à travers,
Don't put on any airs when you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue
Ne fais pas d'histoires quand tu es au bout de Rue Morgue Avenue,
They got some hungry women there and they really make a mess outta you
Il y a des femmes affamées là-bas et elles te font vraiment un sacré bordel,
Now, if you see Saint Annie, please tell her thanks a lot
Maintenant, si tu vois Sainte Annie, dis-lui merci beaucoup,
I cannot move, my fingers are all in a knot
Je ne peux pas bouger, mes doigts sont tous noués,
I don't have the strength to get up and take another shot
Je n'ai pas la force de me lever et de prendre un autre verre,
And my best friend, my doctor, won't even say what it is I've got
Et mon meilleur ami, mon médecin, ne me dit même pas ce que j'ai,
Sweet Melinda, the peasants call her the goddess of gloom
Douce Melinda, les paysans l'appellent la déesse du désespoir,
She speaks good English and she invites you up into her room
Elle parle bien anglais et t'invite dans sa chambre,
And you're so kind and careful not to go to her too soon
Et tu es si gentil et prudent de ne pas y aller trop tôt,
And she takes your voice and leaves you howling at the moon
Et elle te prend ta voix et te laisse hurler à la lune,
Up on Housing Project Hill, it's either fortune or fame
En haut de la colline du Projet de Logement, c'est soit la fortune, soit la gloire,
You must pick one or the other, though neither of them are to be what they claim
Tu dois en choisir un ou l'autre, même si aucun d'eux n'est ce qu'ils prétendent être,
If you're lookin' to get silly, you better go back to from where you came
Si tu cherches à devenir stupide, tu ferais mieux de retourner d'où tu viens,
Because the cops don't need you, and man, they expect the same
Parce que les flics n'ont pas besoin de toi, et mec, ils attendent la même chose,
Now, all the authorities, they just stand around and boast
Maintenant, toutes les autorités, ils ne font que se pavaner et se vanter,
How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms into leaving his post
Comment ils ont fait chanter le sergent d'armes pour qu'il quitte son poste,
And picking up Angel, who just arrived here from the coast
Et pour qu'il aille chercher Angel, qui vient d'arriver de la côte,
Who looked so fine at first but left looking just like a ghost
Qui avait l'air si bien au début mais qui est parti en ressemblant à un fantôme,
I started out on burgundy but soon hit the harder stuff
J'ai commencé avec du bordeaux, mais j'ai vite attaqué le truc plus fort,
Everybody said they'd stand behind me when the game got rough
Tout le monde a dit qu'ils me soutiendraient quand le jeu deviendrait dur,
But the joke was on me, there was nobody even there to bluff
Mais la blague était pour moi, il n'y avait même personne pour bluffer,
I'm going back to New York City, I do believe I've had enough
Je retourne à New York City, je crois que j'en ai eu assez.
