Lyrics and translation Merle Haggard - Hobo Bill (Re-Recorded)




Hobo Bill (Re-Recorded)
Hobo Bill (Re-Recorded)
Hobo Bill-why
Hobo Bill, pourquoi
Riding on that eastbound freight train speeding through the night
Rouler sur ce train de marchandises à destination de l'est qui file toute la nuit ?
Hobo Bill a railroad bum was fighting for his life
Hobo Bill, un clochard des chemins de fer, luttait pour sa vie.
The sadness of his eyes revealed the torture of his soul
La tristesse de ses yeux révélait la torture de son âme.
He raised a weak and weary hand to brush away the cold
Il leva une main faible et lasse pour essuyer le froid.
Hobo Bill
Hobo Bill,
No warm lights flickered round him no blankets there to hold
Aucune lumière chaude ne scintillait autour de lui, aucune couverture pour le tenir au chaud.
Nothing but the howling wind and the driving rain so cold
Rien que le vent qui hurlait et la pluie battante si glaciale.
When he heard a whistle blowing in a dreamy kind of way
Quand il entendit un sifflet retentir d'une manière rêveuse,
The hobo seemed contented for he smiled there where he lay
Le clochard semblait content, car il sourit il était allongé.
Hobo Bill
Hobo Bill,
Outside the rain was falling on that lonely boxcar door
Dehors, la pluie tombait sur la porte solitaire de ce wagon à marchandises.
But the little form of Hobo Bill lay still upon the floor
Mais la petite silhouette de Hobo Bill restait immobile sur le sol.
While the train sped through the darkness and the raging storm outside
Alors que le train filait dans l'obscurité et que la tempête faisait rage dehors,
No one knew that Hobo Bill was taking his last ride
Personne ne savait que Hobo Bill faisait son dernier voyage.
It was early in the morning when they raised the hobo's head
C'était tôt le matin lorsqu'ils relevèrent la tête du clochard.
The smile still lingered on his face but Hobo Bill was dead
Le sourire persistait sur son visage, mais Hobo Bill était mort.
There was no mother's longing to soothe his weary soul
Il n'y avait pas la nostalgie d'une mère pour apaiser son âme lasse,
For he was just a railroad bum who died out in the cold
Car il n'était qu'un clochard des chemins de fer qui est mort dans le froid.
