Lyrics and translation Bobby Bare - Back Home in Huntsville Again
Open
the
gates
up
hey
screw
did
you
miss
me
Jimmy
I
see
that
you
found
a
new
friend
Ouvre
les
portes,
hé,
Screw,
tu
m'as
manqué
? Jimmy,
je
vois
que
tu
as
trouvé
un
nouvel
ami.
Warden
come
down
here
and
kiss
me
hello
cause
I'm
back
home
in
Huntsville
again
Warden,
descends
ici
et
embrasse-moi,
car
je
suis
de
retour
à
Huntsville.
This
suit
that
I'm
wearing
cost
two
hundred
dollars
Ce
costume
que
je
porte
coûte
deux
cents
dollars
But
I
got
it
free
with
a
three
dollar
knife
Mais
je
l'ai
eu
gratuitement
avec
un
couteau
à
trois
dollars
I
got
tailor
made
shirts
with
them
long
pointy
collars
J'ai
des
chemises
sur
mesure
avec
de
longs
cols
pointus
And
all
it's
gonna
cost
is
ten
years
of
my
life
Et
tout
cela
ne
me
coûtera
que
dix
ans
de
ma
vie
So
open
the
gates
up...
Alors
ouvre
les
portes...
I've
been
rousted
and
turned
out
at
three
in
the
morning
J'ai
été
réveillé
et
mis
dehors
à
trois
heures
du
matin
I've
been
roughed
up
and
shook
down
and
stood
on
my
ear
J'ai
été
malmené,
fouillé
et
mis
sur
mes
oreilles
I've
tried
to
find
work
but
they
called
me
a
jailbird
J'ai
essayé
de
trouver
du
travail,
mais
on
m'a
appelé
un
détenu
So
I
went
for
the
bundle
and
I've
wound
up
back
here
Alors
j'ai
fait
le
paquet
et
je
me
suis
retrouvé
ici
So
open
the
gates
up...
Alors
ouvre
les
portes...
I
found
me
a
woman
as
warm
as
the
sunshine
took
her
a
year
to
slip
out
of
her
dress
J'ai
trouvé
une
femme
aussi
chaude
que
le
soleil,
elle
a
mis
un
an
à
se
dévêtir.
She
talk
about
havin'
a
little
rose
covered
cottage
Elle
parle
d'avoir
un
petit
chalet
couvert
de
roses
But
roses
cost
money
and
you
know
the
rest
Mais
les
roses
coûtent
de
l'argent
et
tu
sais
la
suite
So
open
the
gates
up...
Alors
ouvre
les
portes...
Yes
I'm
back
home
in
Huntsville
again
Oui,
je
suis
de
retour
à
Huntsville.
