Nellie Sits Awaiting - Eddy Arnold translation in French

Nellie Sits Awaiting

(Jan Crutchfield - Gerald Nelson)
Nellie sits a waitin′,
Waitin' all alone
Waitin′ for her Johnny to come home
Johnny come on home.
Johnny courted Nellie,
She would be his wife
Johnny went to battle,
Lost his life.
Nellie promised Johnny
Her love for him she'd save
For Johnny's in Savannah
An oak tree marks his grave.
Nellie sits a waitin′,
Waitin′ all alone
Waitin' for her Johnny to come home
Johnny come on home.
No one will tell Nellie
Who′s sittin' all alone
All abided that′s coming back
But Johnny can't come home.
Nellie sits a waitin′,
Waitin' all alone
Waitin' for her Johnny to come home
Johnny come on home...

Nellie attend

(Jan Crutchfield - Gerald Nelson)
Nellie attend,
Attend toute seule
Attendant que son Johnny rentre à la maison
Johnny rentre à la maison.
Johnny a courtisé Nellie,
Elle serait sa femme
Johnny est allé à la guerre,
A perdu la vie.
Nellie a promis à Johnny
Son amour pour lui elle le garderait
Car Johnny est à Savannah
Un chêne marque sa tombe.
Nellie attend,
Attend toute seule
Attendant que son Johnny rentre à la maison
Johnny rentre à la maison.
Personne ne dira à Nellie
Qui attend toute seule
Tout le monde sait qu'il ne reviendra pas
Mais Johnny ne peut pas rentrer à la maison.
Nellie attend,
Attend toute seule
Attendant que son Johnny rentre à la maison
Johnny rentre à la maison...
