Lyrics and translation Johnny Cash - Wabash Cannonball




Wabash Cannonball
Le Wabash Cannonball
From the great Atlantic ocean to the wide Pacific shore
De l'immense océan Atlantique jusqu'aux rives du Pacifique
She climbs a flowery mountains o'er the hills and by the shore
Elle gravit des montagnes fleuries, par monts et par vaux, ma chérie
She's mighty tall and handsome, she's known quite well by all
Elle est grande et belle, connue de tous, c'est une merveille
She's a regular combination on the Wabash Cannonball
C'est une locomotive hors pair, le Wabash Cannonball, mon éclair
Listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar
Écoute son cliquetis, son grondement, son rugissement rauque
As she glides along the woodland o'er the hills and by the shore
Glissant à travers les bois, par monts et par vaux, ma douce fauque
Hear the mighty rush of the engine hear those lonesome hoboes call
Entends le souffle puissant de la machine, l'appel des hobos, ma reine
Traveling through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball
Voyageant à travers la jungle, sur le Wabash Cannonball, ma sirène
Well she came down from Birmingham one cold December day
Elle est arrivée de Birmingham, un froid jour de décembre
As she pulled into the station you could hear all the people say
En entrant en gare, on pouvait entendre les gens s'exclamer
She's from Tennessee she's long and she's tall
Elle vient du Tennessee, elle est longue et majestueuse, vraiment
She came down from Birmingham on the Wabash Cannonball
Elle est venue de Birmingham, sur le Wabash Cannonball, c'est flagrant
Listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar
Écoute son cliquetis, son grondement, son rugissement rauque
As she glides along the woodland o'er the hills and by the shore
Glissant à travers les bois, par monts et par vaux, ma douce fauque
Hear the mighty rush of the engine hear those lonesome hoboes call
Entends le souffle puissant de la machine, l'appel des hobos, ma reine
Traveling through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball
Voyageant à travers la jungle, sur le Wabash Cannonball, ma sirène
Here's to daddy Claxton may his name forever stand
À la santé de papa Claxton, que son nom reste à jamais
And always be remembered in the courts throughout the land
Et qu'on se souvienne de lui dans les tribunaux du pays, sans cesse
His earthly race is over and the curtains round him fall
Sa course terrestre est terminée, le rideau tombe, hélas
We'll carry him home to Dixie on the Wabash Cannonball
Nous le ramènerons à Dixie, sur le Wabash Cannonball, en paix
Listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar
Écoute son cliquetis, son grondement, son rugissement rauque
As she glides along the woodland o'er the hills and by the shore
Glissant à travers les bois, par monts et par vaux, ma douce fauque
Hear the mighty rush of the engine hear those lonesome hoboes call
Entends le souffle puissant de la machine, l'appel des hobos, ma reine
Traveling through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball
Voyageant à travers la jungle, sur le Wabash Cannonball, ma sirène
