Lyrics and translation Bob Dylan - Only a Hobo - Studio Outtake - 1963




Only a Hobo - Studio Outtake - 1963
Un simple clochard - Prise de son studio - 1963
As I was out walking on a corner one day
Alors que je marchais dans un coin de rue un jour
I spied an old hobo, in a doorway he lay
J'ai aperçu un vieux clochard, dans une porte il était couché
His face was all grounded in the cold sidewalk floor
Son visage était tout enfoncé dans le sol froid du trottoir
And I guess he'd been there for the whole night or more
Et je suppose qu'il avait été toute la nuit ou plus
Only a hobo, but one more is gone
Un simple clochard, mais un de plus est parti
Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song
Ne laissant personne pour chanter sa triste chanson
Leavin' nobody to carry him home
Ne laissant personne pour le ramener à la maison
Only a hobo, but one more is gone
Un simple clochard, mais un de plus est parti
A blanket of newspaper covered his head
Une couverture de journal couvrait sa tête
As the step was his pillow, the street was his bed
Alors que le marchepied était son oreiller, la rue était son lit
One look at his face showed the hard road he'd come
Un regard sur son visage montrait le chemin difficile qu'il avait parcouru
And a fistful of money showed the coins he bummed
Et une poignée d'argent montrait les pièces qu'il avait mendiées
He was only a hobo, but one more is gone
Il n'était qu'un clochard, mais un de plus est parti
Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song
Ne laissant personne pour chanter sa triste chanson
And leavin' nobody to carry him home
Et ne laissant personne pour le ramener à la maison
Only a hobo, but one more is gone
Un simple clochard, mais un de plus est parti
Does it take much of a man to see his whole life go down
Faut-il beaucoup d'un homme pour voir toute sa vie s'effondrer
To look up on the world from a hole in the ground
Pour regarder le monde d'un trou dans le sol
To wait for your future like a horse that's gone lame
Pour attendre son avenir comme un cheval qui est devenu boiteux
To lie in the gutter and die with no name?
Pour se coucher dans le caniveau et mourir sans nom ?
He was only a hobo, but one more is gone
Il n'était qu'un clochard, mais un de plus est parti
Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song
Ne laissant personne pour chanter sa triste chanson
Leavin' nobody to carry him home
Ne laissant personne pour le ramener à la maison
He was only a hobo, but one more is gone
Il n'était qu'un clochard, mais un de plus est parti
