Lyrics and translation Hank Williams - Howlin' At The Moon - Single Version

Howlin' At The Moon - Single Version

Hurler à la Lune - Version Single

I know there's never been a man, in the awful shape I'm in

Je sais qu'il n'y a jamais eu d'homme dans un état aussi pitoyable que le mien

I can't even spell my name, my head's in such a spin

Je ne peux même pas épeler mon nom, ma tête tourne tellement

Today I tried to eat a steak, with a big old table spoon

Aujourd'hui j'ai essayé de manger un steak avec une grosse cuillère à soupe

You got me chasin' rabbits, walkin' on my hands and howlin' at the moon

Tu me fais courir après les lapins, marcher sur mes mains et hurler à la lune

Well sugar I took one look at you, and it almost drove me mad

Eh bien ma chérie, je t'ai regardée, et ça a failli me rendre fou

And then I even went and lost, what little sense I had

Et puis j'ai même perdu le peu de bon sens que j'avais

Now I can't tell the day from night, I'm crazy as a loon

Maintenant je ne distingue plus le jour de la nuit, je suis fou comme un balai

You got me chasin' rabbits, pullin' out my hair and howlin' at the moon

Tu me fais courir après les lapins, me tirer les cheveux et hurler à la lune

Some friends of mine asked me to go, out on a huntin' spree

Des amis à moi m'ont demandé d'aller chasser

'Cause there ain't a hound dog in this state that can hold a light to me

Parce qu'il n'y a pas un chien de chasse dans cet état qui puisse me tenir la chandelle

I eat three bones for dinner today, then tried to tree a coon

J'ai mangé trois os pour le dîner aujourd'hui, puis j'ai essayé de faire grimper un raton laveur à un arbre

You got me chasin' rabbits, scratchin' fleas and howlin' at the moon

Tu me fais courir après les lapins, gratter les puces et hurler à la lune

I rode my horse to town today and a gas pump we did pass

J'ai monté mon cheval en ville aujourd'hui et on est passé devant une pompe à essence

I pulled him up and I hollered whoa and said, fill him up with gas

Je l'ai arrêté et j'ai crié "Whoa" et j'ai dit : "Faites le plein"

The man picked up a monkey wrench and wham he changed my tune

L'homme a pris une clé à molette et bam, il m'a fait changer d'avis

You got me chasin' rabbits, spittin' out teeth and howlin' at the moon

Tu me fais courir après les lapins, cracher des dents et hurler à la lune

I never thought in this old world, a fool could fall so hard

Je n'aurais jamais pensé qu'un imbécile puisse tomber aussi fort dans ce vieux monde

But honey baby when I fell, the whole world must have jarred

Mais chérie, quand je suis tombé, le monde entier a dû trembler

I think I'd quit my doggish ways, if you take me for your groom

Je pense que j'arrêterais mes bêtises de chien si tu me prends pour ton mari

You got me chasin' rabbits, pickin' out rings and howlin' at the moon

Tu me fais courir après les lapins, choisir des alliances et hurler à la lune
