Lyrics and translation Hank Williams - (I Heard That) Lonesome Whistle (Single Version)

(I Heard That) Lonesome Whistle (Single Version)

(Я слышал этот) Одинокий гудок (Сингл версия)

I was riding Number Nine

Я ехал на поезде номер девять,

Heading south from Caroline

На юг, прочь от Кэролайн.

I heard that lonesome whistle blow

Я слышал тот одинокий гудок,

Got in trouble had to roam

Попал в беду, пришлось скитаться,

Left my gal and left my home

Оставил милую, оставил дом.

I heard that lonesome whistle blow

Я слышал тот одинокий гудок.

Just a kid actin' smart

Всего лишь мальчишка, возомнивший себя умным,

I went and broke my darlin's heart

Я разбил сердце моей любимой.

I guess I was too young to know

Думаю, я был слишком молод, чтобы понимать.

They took me off to Georgia Main

Меня отправили в тюрьму Джорджии,

Locked me to a ball and chain

Сковали меня цепями,

I heard that lonesome whistle blow

Я слышал тот одинокий гудок.

All alone I bear the shame

В полном одиночестве несу свой стыд,

I'm a number not a name

Я номер, а не имя.

I heard that lonesome whistle blow

Я слышал тот одинокий гудок.

All I do is sit and cry

Всё, что я делаю, это сижу и плачу,

When the ev'nin' train goes by

Когда мимо проходит вечерний поезд.

I heard that lonesome whistle blow

Я слышал тот одинокий гудок.

I'll be locked here in this cell

Я буду заперт в этой камере,

'Til my body's just a shell

Пока мое тело не станет лишь оболочкой,

And my hair turns whiter than snow

А волосы не станут белее снега.

I'll never see that gal of mine

Я никогда больше не увижу мою милую,

Lord, I'm in Georgia doin' time

Боже, я в Джорджии отбываю срок.

I heard that lonesome whistle blow

Я слышал тот одинокий гудок.
