Lyrics and translation Charlie Poole - Took My Gal a-Walkin'

Took My Gal a-Walkin'

Взял я милую на прогулку

I took my gal a-walkin'

Взял я милую на прогулку,

It was on one Saturday night

В субботу вечером,

I took my gal a-walkin'

Взял я милую на прогулку,

And the moon was shining bright

И луна так ярко светила.

I asked her if she'd marry me

Я спросил, пойдёт ли за меня,

And this is what she said

И вот что она сказала:

She said she wouldn't marry me

Сказала, что не пойдёт,

If the rest of the world was dead

Даже если б весь мир пропал.

I ain't got nobody, I'm just as blue as can be

Нет у меня никого, и мне так тоскливо,

I ain't got nobody to make a big fuss over me

Нет у меня никого, кто бы обо мне печалился.

If I don't get somebody I'll go back to the farm

Если никого не найду, вернусь я на ферму,

Milk the cows and chickens, I don't give a golly gosh darn

Коровок и курочек доить, а мне всё равно.

I took my gal a-walkin'

Взял я милую на прогулку,

It was on one Saturday night

В субботу вечером,

I took my gal a-walkin'

Взял я милую на прогулку,

And the moon was shining bright

И луна так ярко светила.

I asked her if she'd kiss me

Я спросил, могу ли поцеловать,

And this is what she said

И вот что она сказала:

She said she wouldn't kiss me

Сказала, что не поцелует,

So I kissed her instead

Ну я и поцеловал.

I ain't got nobody, I'm just as blue as can be

Нет у меня никого, и мне так тоскливо,

I ain't got nobody to make a big fuss over me

Нет у меня никого, кто бы обо мне печалился.

If I don't get somebody I'll go back to the farm

Если никого не найду, вернусь я на ферму,

Milk the cows and chickens, I don't give a golly gosh darn

Коровок и курочек доить, а мне всё равно.

I ain't got nobody, I'm just as blue as can be

Нет у меня никого, и мне так тоскливо,

I ain't got nobody to make a big fuss over me

Нет у меня никого, кто бы обо мне печалился.

If I don't get somebody I'll go back to the farm

Если никого не найду, вернусь я на ферму,

Milk the cows and chickens, I don't give a golly gosh darn

Коровок и курочек доить, а мне всё равно.
