Lyrics and translation Johnny Horton - Sinking of the Reuben James




Sinking of the Reuben James
Le naufrage du Reuben James
SINKINGOF THE REUBEN JAMES
LE NAUFRAGE DU REUBEN JAMES
What weretheir names tell me what were their names
Dites-moi, quels étaient leurs noms, dis-moi quels étaient leurs noms
Did you have a friend on the Good Reuben James
Aviez-vous un ami sur le bon Reuben James ?
Have you heard of a ship called that good Reuben James
Avez-vous entendu parler d'un navire appelé le bon Reuben James ?
Stand by hard fighting men both of honor and fame
Des hommes de combat, debout, à la fois d'honneur et de gloire
She flew the stars and stripes of the land of the free
Il arborait les étoiles et les rayures de la terre des libres
But tonight she′s in her grave at the bottom of the sea
Mais ce soir, il repose dans sa tombe, au fond de la mer
(Nowtell me) What were their names tell me what were their names
(Dis-moi maintenant) Quels étaient leurs noms, dis-moi quels étaient leurs noms
Did you have a friend on the Good Reuben James
Aviez-vous un ami sur le bon Reuben James ?
(Now tell me) What were their names tell me what were their names
(Dis-moi maintenant) Quels étaient leurs noms, dis-moi quels étaient leurs noms
Did you have a friend on the Good Reuben James
Aviez-vous un ami sur le bon Reuben James ?

It wast here in the dark of that uncertain night
C'était là, dans les ténèbres de cette nuit incertaine
That we waited for U-boats and waited for that fight
Que nous attendions les U-boots, et que nous attendions ce combat
Then a whine and a rock and the great explosion roared
Puis, un sifflement, une secousse, et la grande explosion a rugi
And they laid that Reuben James on the cold ocean floor
Et ils ont envoyé le Reuben James au fond du froid océan
(Nowtell me) What were their names tell me what were their names
(Dis-moi maintenant) Quels étaient leurs noms, dis-moi quels étaient leurs noms
Did you have a friend on the Good Reuben James
Aviez-vous un ami sur le bon Reuben James ?

Now tonight there are lights in our country so bright
Ce soir, les lumières brillent dans notre pays
On the farms and the cities they're tellin′ of that fight
Dans les fermes et les villes, ils parlent de ce combat
And now our mighty battle ships will sail the bounding main
Et maintenant, nos puissants navires de guerre navigueront sur la grande mer
And remember the name of that Good Reuben James
Et souviens-toi du nom du bon Reuben James
(Nowtell me) What weretheir names tell me what were their names
(Dis-moi maintenant) Quels étaient leurs noms, dis-moi quels étaient leurs noms
Did you have a friend on the Good Reuben James
Aviez-vous un ami sur le bon Reuben James ?
What were their names tell me what were their names
Quels étaient leurs noms, dis-moi quels étaient leurs noms
Did you have a friend on the Good Reuben James
Aviez-vous un ami sur le bon Reuben James ?
(Now tell me) What were their names tell me what were their names
(Dis-moi maintenant) Quels étaient leurs noms, dis-moi quels étaient leurs noms
Did you have a friend on the Good Reuben James
Aviez-vous un ami sur le bon Reuben James ?
