On The Banks Of The Ponchatrain - 2019 - Remaster
Sur Les Rives Du Lac Pontchartrain - 2019 - Remaster
Barry had you remember, On The Banks Of The Old Ponchatrain?
Barry, tu te souviens, Sur Les Rives Du Vieux Lac Pontchartrain ?
Huh? I think it, you sure?
Hein ? Je crois que oui, tu es sûr ?
Well, let's throw down by New Orleans and go swimmin' in the lake
Eh bien, descendons vers La Nouvelle-Orléans et allons nous baigner dans le lac.
Let's go
Allons-y.
I traveled from Texas to old Louisanne
J'ai voyagé du Texas à la vieille Louisiane.
Through valleys, o'er mountains and plains
À travers les vallées, par-dessus les montagnes et les plaines.
Both footsore and weary, I rested a while
Les pieds endoloris et fatigué, j'ai reposé un peu.
On the banks of the old Ponchatrain
Sur les rives du vieux lac Pontchartrain.
The fairest young maiden that I ever saw
La plus belle jeune fille que j'aie jamais vue.
Passed by as it started to rain
Est passée alors que la pluie commençait.
We both found a shelter beneath the same tree
Nous avons tous les deux trouvé un abri sous le même arbre.
On the banks of the old Ponchatrain
Sur les rives du vieux lac Pontchartrain.
I ventured a smile but she thought I was bold
J'ai osé lui sourire, mais elle a pensé que j'étais audacieux.
I hastened to try and explain
Je me suis empressé d'essayer de l'expliquer.
But somehow I knew I would linger a while
Mais d'une certaine manière, je savais que je resterais un moment.
On the banks of the old Ponchatrain
Sur les rives du vieux lac Pontchartrain.
We hid from the shower an hour or so
Nous nous sommes cachés de la pluie pendant une heure environ.
She asked me how long I'd remain
Elle m'a demandé combien de temps je resterais.
I told her that I'd spend the rest of my days
Je lui ai dit que je passerais le reste de mes jours.
On the banks of the old Ponchatrain
Sur les rives du vieux lac Pontchartrain.
As time drifted by we fell deeper in love
Alors que le temps passait, nous sommes tombés plus profondément amoureux.
A love that could just bring her pain
Un amour qui ne pouvait que te faire souffrir.
For I knew that one day I would leave her alone
Car je savais qu'un jour je te laisserais seule.
On the banks of the old Ponchatrain
Sur les rives du vieux lac Pontchartrain.
I just couldn't tell her that I ran away
Je ne pouvais pas te dire que je m'étais enfui.
From jail on a West Texas plain
De la prison dans la plaine de l'Ouest du Texas.
But I prayed in my heart I would never be found
Mais j'ai prié dans mon cœur que je ne sois jamais retrouvé.
On the banks of the old Ponchatrain
Sur les rives du vieux lac Pontchartrain.
Then one day a man put his hand on my arm
Puis un jour, un homme a posé sa main sur mon bras.
And said I must go west again
Et m'a dit que je devais retourner à l'ouest.
And I left her alone without saying goodbye
Et je t'ai laissée seule sans te dire au revoir.
On the banks of the old Ponchatrain
Sur les rives du vieux lac Pontchartrain.
Tonight as I sit here alone in my cell
Ce soir, alors que je suis assis ici seul dans ma cellule.
I know that she's waiting in vain
Je sais que tu attends en vain.
And I'm hoping and praying someday to return
Et j'espère et je prie de pouvoir revenir un jour.
To the banks of the old Ponchatrain
Sur les rives du vieux lac Pontchartrain.
One of the first things I ever wrote and recorded uncle Louis
L'une des premières choses que j'ai jamais écrites et enregistrées, oncle Louis.
By you Ponchatrain, by the old Ponchatrain
Près de ton lac Pontchartrain, près du vieux lac Pontchartrain.
That's where they catch big shoe pig and big craw fish
C'est qu'ils attrapent de gros cochons d'eau et de gros écrevisses.
New Orleans? Yeah, man
La Nouvelle-Orléans ? Oui, mon homme.
