Lyrics and translation Jerry Garcia - Lonesome Town (acoustic version)
I
used
to
bite
my
tongue
and
hold
my
breath
J'avais
l'habitude
de
me
mordre
la
langue
et
de
retenir
mon
souffle
Scared
to
rock
the
boat
and
make
a
mess
Peur
de
faire
basculer
le
bateau
et
de
faire
un
gâchis
So
I
sat
quietly,
agreed
politely
Alors
je
me
suis
assis
tranquillement,
j'ai
acquiescé
poliment
I
guess
that
I
forgot
I
had
a
choice
Je
suppose
que
j'ai
oublié
que
j'avais
le
choix
I
let
you
push
me
past
the
breaking
point
Je
t'ai
laissé
me
pousser
au-delà
du
point
de
rupture
I
stood
for
nothing,
so
I
fell
for
everything
Je
ne
me
suis
battu
pour
rien,
alors
j'ai
succombé
à
tout
You
held
me
down,
but
I
got
up
Tu
m'as
maintenu
au
sol,
mais
je
me
suis
relevé
Already
brushing
off
the
dust
Déjà
en
train
d'épousseter
la
poussière
You
hear
my
voice,
your
hear
that
sound
Tu
entends
ma
voix,
tu
entends
ce
son
Like
thunder,
gonna
shake
your
ground
Comme
le
tonnerre,
ça
va
faire
trembler
tes
fondations
You
held
me
down,
but
I
got
up
Tu
m'as
maintenu
au
sol,
mais
je
me
suis
relevé
Get
ready
cause
I've
had
enough
Prépare-toi
parce
que
j'en
ai
assez
I
see
it
all,
I
see
it
now
Je
vois
tout,
je
vois
tout
maintenant
I
got
the
eye
of
the
tiger,
the
fire,
dancing
through
the
fire
J'ai
l'œil
du
tigre,
le
feu,
qui
danse
à
travers
le
feu
Cause
I
am
a
champion
and
you're
gonna
hear
me
ROAR
Parce
que
je
suis
un
champion
et
tu
vas
m'entendre
RUGIR
Louder,
louder
than
a
lion
Plus
fort,
plus
fort
qu'un
lion
Cause
I
am
a
champion
and
you're
gonna
hear
me
ROAR
Parce
que
je
suis
un
champion
et
tu
vas
m'entendre
RUGIR
Oh
oh
oh
oh
oh
oh
Oh
oh
oh
oh
oh
oh
You're
gonna
hear
me
roar
Tu
vas
m'entendre
rugir
Now
I'm
floating
like
a
butterfly
Maintenant
je
flotte
comme
un
papillon
Stinging
like
a
bee
I
earned
my
stripes
Je
pique
comme
une
abeille,
j'ai
gagné
mes
galons
I
went
from
zero,
to
my
own
hero
Je
suis
passé
de
zéro
à
mon
propre
héros
You
held
me
down,
but
I
got
up
Tu
m'as
maintenu
au
sol,
mais
je
me
suis
relevé
Already
