Lyrics and translation Rex Griffin - Sweet Mama Hurry Home or I'll Be Gone

Sweet Mama Hurry Home or I'll Be Gone

Ma douce Maman, reviens vite sinon je m'en irai

Yodel

I've been so blue and lonesome too

J'étais si triste et si seul

Ever since you went away

Depuis que tu es partie

My poor heart yearns for you both night and day

Mon pauvre cœur te désire jour et nuit

Since you're gone the stars don't seem to shine

Depuis que tu es partie, les étoiles ne semblent plus briller

You are always on my mind

Tu es toujours dans mes pensées

I'm so unhappy for I want just you

Je suis si malheureux car je veux juste toi

But there'll come a time

Mais il viendra un temps

You'll miss me and you'll be blue

Tu me manqueras et tu seras triste

There'll come a time

Il viendra un temps

You'll want me no one else will do (sweet Mamma)

Tu me voudras, personne d'autre ne fera l'affaire (ma douce Maman)

Your heart will long for my loving

Ton cœur aspirera à mon amour

Then you'll see that you were wrong

Alors tu verras que tu avais tort

And I know you will sigh

Et je sais que tu soupireras

And maybe sometimes cry

Et peut-être que tu pleureras parfois

But then I'll be long gone (sweet Mamma)

Mais alors je serai parti depuis longtemps (ma douce Maman)

Hurry home or I'll be gone

Reviens vite sinon je m'en irai

-Yodel-Hurry home or I'll be gone

-Yodel-Reviens vite sinon je m'en irai

You won my heart right from the start

Tu as gagné mon cœur dès le début

I gave all my love to you

Je t'ai donné tout mon amour

I never dreamed that you could be untrue

Je n'aurais jamais cru que tu pourrais être infidèle

You have ways of loving all your own

Tu as tes propres façons d'aimer

That's what made me leave my happy home

C'est ce qui m'a fait quitter mon foyer heureux

But now you're gone and I'm left all alone

Mais maintenant tu es partie et je suis seul

But there'll come a time

Mais il viendra un temps

You'll miss me and you'll be blue

Tu me manqueras et tu seras triste

There'll come a time

Il viendra un temps

You'll want me no one else will do (oh Baby)

Tu me voudras, personne d'autre ne fera l'affaire (oh Bébé)

Your heart will long for my loving

Ton cœur aspirera à mon amour

Then you'll see that you were wrong

Alors tu verras que tu avais tort

And I know you will sigh

Et je sais que tu soupireras

And maybe sometimes cry

Et peut-être que tu pleureras parfois

But then I'll be long gone (sweet Mamma)

Mais alors je serai parti depuis longtemps (ma douce Maman)

Hurry home or I'll be gone

Reviens vite sinon je m'en irai

-Yodel-Hurry home or I'll be gone

-Yodel-Reviens vite sinon je m'en irai
