Lyrics and translation Mike Johnson - Corner of the Bar

Corner of the Bar

Corner of the bar
Mike johnson, black yodel no.1 *8 july 1989

There he is again, sittin, at the corner
Of the bar.
Lost in conversation with, the bottles, sittin'
On the bar.
And every one he calls by name, and tells them, exactly
Who they are.

And he tells them what they did to him,
He buys a round, and then,
Forgives them all.

But don't you call him crazy,
And don't you try to say, that he is lost.
'Cause every day like clockwork, he's sittin', at the corner, of the bar

Full turn:
Margaret was his wife, and kay, was the girl
Who lived next door.
Sue worked at the grocery store, and carla,
No one knows for sure.

And then there are the other ones, but no one, has ever
Heard their names.
He just smiles kinda wicked like, and he tells them, their secrets,
Will remain

But don't you call him crazy,
And don't you try to say, that he is lost,
'Cause every day like clockwork, he's sittin', at the corner, of the bar

Full turn:

There he is again
Sittin,
At the corner
Of the bar.

Coin du bar

Coin du bar
Mike Johnson, yodel noir n°1 *8 juillet 1989

Le voilà encore, assis, au coin
Du bar.
Perdu dans une conversation avec, les bouteilles, assises
Sur le bar.
Et il les appelle toutes par leur nom, et leur dit, exactement
Qui elles sont.

Et il leur dit ce qu'elles lui ont fait,
Il offre un tour, puis,
Les pardonne toutes.

Mais ne l'appelle pas fou,
Et n'essaie pas de dire qu'il est perdu.
Car chaque jour comme un rouage, il est assis, au coin, du bar

Tour complet:
Margaret était sa femme, et Kay, était la fille
Qui vivait à côté.
Sue travaillait à l'épicerie, et Carla,
Personne ne sait avec certitude.

Et puis il y a les autres, mais personne, n'a jamais
Entendu leurs noms.
Il sourit un peu méchamment, et il leur dit, leurs secrets,
Resteront

Mais ne l'appelle pas fou,
Et n'essaie pas de dire qu'il est perdu,
Car chaque jour comme un rouage, il est assis, au coin, du bar

Tour complet:

Le voilà encore
Assis,
Au coin
Du bar.
