Lyrics and translation Nazareth - Honky Tonk Downstairs (BBC live track)




Honky Tonk Downstairs (BBC live track)
Honky Tonk Downstairs (BBC live track)
It won't be long now, until that ol' sun gets down
Ça ne va pas tarder, le soleil va se coucher
And up the stairs I hide, my shameful tears
Et je me cacherai en haut des escaliers, mes larmes de honte
My wife works all night long, for a man who's halfway gone
Ma femme travaille toute la nuit, pour un homme à moitié disparu
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs
Elle est barmaid dans le Honky Tonk en bas
And it's a shame she wears the name
C'est dommage qu'elle porte le nom
Of a man that's locked in chains
D'un homme qui est enchaîné
To a bottle that destroys her hopes and cares
À une bouteille qui détruit ses espoirs et ses soucis
To a man with hungry eye's, she works and hides her pride
Un homme aux yeux affamés, elle travaille et cache sa fierté
She's a barmaid in the honky tonk downstairs
Elle est barmaid dans le Honky Tonk en bas
