Lyrics and translation Johnny Cash - Lumberjack
I
lived
on
a
farm
out
in
Iowa
J'ai
vécu
dans
une
ferme
dans
l'Iowa
I
pulled
the
corn
and
I
worked
in
the
hay
J'ai
arraché
le
maïs
et
j'ai
travaillé
dans
le
foin
Got
trapped
by
a
girl
but
I
wiggled
free
J'ai
été
piégé
par
une
fille
mais
je
me
suis
dégagé
Heard
the
Oregon
timber
callin'
me
J'ai
entendu
le
bois
d'Oregon
m'appeler
Will
you
tell
me
somethin'
Mr
lumberjack
Peux-tu
me
dire
quelque
chose,
mon
cher
bûcheron
?
Is
it
one
for
forward
and
three
for
back
Est-ce
un
pour
avancer
et
trois
pour
reculer
?
Is
it
two
for
stop
or
four
for
go?
Est-ce
deux
pour
s'arrêter
ou
quatre
pour
aller
?
Boy
ask
a
whistle
punk
I
don't
know
Mon
garçon,
demande
à
un
aiguilleur,
je
ne
sais
pas
Well
I
learned
this
fact
from
a
logger
named
Ray
J'ai
appris
ce
fait
d'un
bûcheron
nommé
Ray
You
don't
cut
timber
on
a
windy
day
Tu
ne
coupes
pas
du
bois
par
un
jour
venteux
Stay
out
of
the
woods
when
the
moisture's
low
Reste
à
l'écart
de
la
forêt
quand
l'humidité
est
faible
Or
you
ain't
gonna
live
to
collect
your
doe
Sinon,
tu
ne
seras
pas
vivant
pour
récupérer
ton
argent
Will
you
tell
