Lyrics and translation Ricky Nelson - Louisiana Man




Louisiana Man
Louisiana Man
At first mom and papa called their little boy Ned
Au début, maman et papa ont appelé leur petit garçon Ned
They raise him on the banks of the river bed
Ils l'ont élevé sur les rives du lit de la rivière
A houseboat tied to a big tall tree
Une maison flottante attachée à un grand arbre
A home for my papa and my mama and me
Un foyer pour papa, maman et moi
The clock strikes three, papa jumps to his feet
L'horloge sonne trois heures, papa saute sur ses pieds
Already mama's cookin' papa somethin' to eat
Maman prépare déjà quelque chose à papa à manger
At half past papa, he's ready to go
À trois heures et demie, papa est prêt à partir
He jumps in his piro, headed down the bayou
Il saute dans son pirogue et se dirige vers le bayou
He's got fishin' lines strung across the Louisiana River
Il a des lignes de pêche tendues à travers la rivière de Louisiane
Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat
Il faut attraper un gros poisson pour que nous mangions
He's settin' his traps catchin' anything he can
Il tend ses pièges pour attraper tout ce qu'il peut
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man
Il faut gagner sa vie, il est un homme de Louisiane
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man
Il faut gagner sa vie, il est un homme de Louisiane
Muskart hides hanging by the dozen
Des rats musqués cachés pendent par douzaines
Even got a little baby muskart's cousin
Il a même un petit cousin de rat musqué
Gotta 'em fryin' in the hot, hot sun
Il faut les faire frire au soleil brûlant
Tomorrow papa's gonna turn them into mon
Demain, papa va les transformer en mon
They call mama Rita and my daddy Jack
Ils appellent maman Rita et mon papa Jack
My little baby brother on the floor that's Mac
Mon petit frère sur le sol, c'est Mac
Red and Lynn are the family twins
Red et Lynn sont les jumeaux de la famille
Big brother Ed's on the bayou fishin'
Le grand frère Ed est sur le bayou à pêcher
On the river float papa's great big boat
Sur la rivière flotte le grand bateau de papa
That's how my papa goes into town
C'est comme ça que mon papa va en ville
He takes every bit of the night and day
Il prend tout ce que la nuit et le jour lui donnent
Then even reach the place where the people stay
Puis il arrive même à l'endroit les gens séjournent
I can hardly wait till tomorrow comes around
J'ai hâte que demain arrive
That's the day my papa takes his fures to town
C'est le jour mon papa emmène ses fourrures en ville
Papa promised me that I could go
Papa m'a promis que je pourrais y aller
Even let me see a cowboy show
Il me laissera même voir un spectacle de cow-boys
I saw the cowboys and Indians for the first time
J'ai vu les cow-boys et les Indiens pour la première fois
Then I told my papa gotta go again
Puis j'ai dit à mon papa qu'il fallait y retourner
Papa said son we got the lines to run
Papa a dit, fils, on a des lignes à lancer
We'll come back again 'cause there's work to be done
On reviendra, car il y a du travail à faire
He's got fishin' lines strung across the Louisiana River
Il a des lignes de pêche tendues à travers la rivière de Louisiane
Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat
Il faut attraper un gros poisson pour que nous mangions
He's settin' his traps catchin' anything he can
Il tend ses pièges pour attraper tout ce qu'il peut
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man
Il faut gagner sa vie, il est un homme de Louisiane
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man
Il faut gagner sa vie, il est un homme de Louisiane
