Lyrics and translation Hank Williams - Settin' the Woods on Fire (Single Version)

Comb your hair and paint and powder

Причешите волосы, покрасьте и припудрите.

You act proud and I'll act prouder

Ты ведешь себя гордо, а я буду гордо.

You sing loud and I'll sing louder, tonight we're settin' the woods on fire

Ты поешь громко, и я буду петь громче, сегодня ночью мы подожжем лес.

You're my gal and I'm your feller

Ты моя девушка, а я твой парень.

Dress up in your frock of yeller

Одевайся в свое платье крикуна.

I'll look swell but you'll look sweller, settin' the woods on fire

Я буду выглядеть шикарно, но ты будешь выглядеть шикарнее, поджигая лес.

We'll take in all the honky tonks, tonight we're having fun

Мы примем всех Хонки-Тонков, сегодня вечером нам будет весело.

We'll show the folks a brand new dance, that never has been done

Мы покажем людям совершенно новый танец, который еще никогда не исполнялся.

I don't care who thinks we're silly

Мне все равно, кто считает нас глупыми.

You'll be daffy I'll be dilly

Ты будешь Даффи а я Дилли

We'll order up two bowls of chili, settin' the woods on fire

Мы закажем две миски Чили и подожжем лес.

I'll gas up my hot rod stoker

Я заправлю свой хот род кочегар

We'll get hotter than a poker

Мы станем горячее, чем кочерга.

You'll be broke but I'll be broker, tonight we're settin' the woods on fire

Ты будешь разорен, но я буду брокером, сегодня ночью мы подожжем лес.

We'll sit close to one another

Мы сядем рядом друг с другом.

Up one street and down the other

Вверх по одной улице и вниз по другой.

We'll have a time, oh brother, settin' the woods on fire

У нас будет время, о брат, поджечь лес.

We'll put aside a little time to fix a flat or two

Мы отложим немного времени, чтобы починить пару квартир.

My tires and tubes are doin' fine but the air is showin' through

Мои шины и трубы в порядке, но воздух просвечивает насквозь.

You clap hands and I'll start bowin'

Ты хлопнешь в ладоши, и я начну кланяться.

We'll do all the law's allowin'

Мы сделаем все, что позволит закон.

Tomorrow I'll be right back plowin', settin' the woods on fire

Завтра я вернусь пахать и поджигать лес.
