Lyrics and translation Jerry Reed - East Bound and Down (From "Smokey and the Bandit")
East
bound
and
down,
loaded
up
and
truckin',
Direction
est
et
en
bas,
chargé
et
en
train
de
rouler,
We're
gonna
do
what
they
say
can't
be
done.
On
va
faire
ce
qu'ils
disent
qu'on
ne
peut
pas
faire.
We've
got
a
long
way
to
go
and
a
short
time
to
get
there.
On
a
un
long
chemin
à
parcourir
et
peu
de
temps
pour
y
arriver.
I'm
east
bound,
just
watch
ol'
"Bandit"
run.
Je
suis
direction
est,
regarde
"Bandit"
courir.
Keep
your
foot
hard
on
the
pedal.
Son,
never
mind
them
brakes.
Garde
ton
pied
sur
l'accélérateur,
mon
chéri,
ne
t'inquiète
pas
des
freins.
Let
it
all
hang
out
'cause
we
got
a
run
to
make.
Laisse
tout
pendre,
on
a
une
course
à
faire.
The
boys
are
thirsty
in
Atlanta
and
there's
beer
in
Texarcana.
Les
garçons
ont
soif
à
Atlanta
et
il
y
a
de
la
bière
à
Texarcana.
And
we'll
bring
it
back
no
matter
what
it
takes.
Et
on
la
ramènera,
quoi
qu'il
arrive.

Ol'
Smokey's
got
them
ears
on
and
he's
hot
on
your
trail.
"Smokey"
a
les
oreilles
tendues
et
il
est
sur
ta
trace.
He
aint
gonna
rest
'til
you're
in
jail.
Il
ne
se
reposera
pas
tant
que
tu
ne
seras
pas
en
prison.
So
you
got
to
dodge
'im
and
you
got
to
duck
'im,
Alors,
tu
dois
l'esquiver
et
tu
dois
le
contourner,
You
got
to
keep
that
diesel
truckin'.
Tu
dois
garder
ce
camion
diesel
en
mouvement.
Just
put
that
hammer
down
and
give
it
hell.
Pose
cette
masse
et
donne
tout.
