Lyrics and translation Merle Haggard - I Threw Away the Rose
Once
I
lived
a
life
of
wine
and
roses
and
Autrefois,
je
vivais
une
vie
de
vin
et
de
roses
I
drank
a
lot
back
then
for
one
concern
Et
je
buvais
beaucoup
à
l'époque
pour
une
raison
Success
for
me
lay
just
around
the
corner
Le
succès
pour
moi
était
juste
au
coin
de
la
rue
I
thought
my
social
friends
would
help
me
make
me
turn
Je
pensais
que
mes
amis
mondains
m'aideraient
à
me
faire
tourner
la
tête
But
now
I′m
paying
for
the
days
of
wine
and
roses
Mais
maintenant,
je
paie
pour
les
jours
de
vin
et
de
roses
A
victim
of
the
drunken
life
I
chose
Victime
de
la
vie
d'ivrogne
que
j'ai
choisie
Now
all
my
social
friends
look
down
their
noses
Maintenant,
tous
mes
amis
mondains
me
regardent
de
haut
Cause
I
kept
the
wine
and
threw
away
the
rose
Parce
que
j'ai
gardé
le
vin
et
jeté
la
rose
I
stood
by
and
watched
the
bottle
take
control
of
me
Je
suis
resté
là
à
regarder
la
bouteille
prendre
le
contrôle
de
moi
The
turn
I
made
was
not
the
one
I'd
planned
Le
tournant
que
j'ai
pris
n'était
pas
celui
que
j'avais
prévu
And
I
watched
my
social
standings
slip
away
from
me
Et
j'ai
vu
ma
position
sociale
m'échapper
While
I
watched
the
bottle
slowly
take
command
Alors
que
je
regardais
la
bouteille
prendre
lentement
le
commandement
Now
I′m
paying
for
the
days
of
wine
and
roses
Maintenant,
je
paie
pour
les
jours
de
vin
et
de
roses
A
victim
of
the
drunken
life
I
chose
Victime
de
la
vie
d'ivrogne
que
j'ai
choisie
Now
all
my
social
friends
look
down
their
noses
Maintenant,
tous
mes
amis
mondains
me
regardent
de
haut
Cause
I
kept

threw
away
the
rose
Parce
que
j'ai
gardé
le

et

la
rose
