Lyrics and translation The Pogues - Streams of Whiskey (Demo)
Last
night
as
I
slept
Hier
soir,
pendant
que
je
dormais
I
dreamt
I
met
with
Behan
J'ai
rêvé
que
j'avais
rencontré
Behan
I
shook
him
by
the
hand
and
we
passed
the
time
of
day
Je
lui
ai
serré
la
main
et
nous
avons
passé
un
moment
agréable
When
questioned
on
his
views
Quand
on
lui
a
posé
des
questions
sur
ses
opinions
On
the
crux
of
life′s
philosophies
Sur
le
nœud
des
philosophies
de
la
vie
He
had
but
these
few
clear
and
simple
words
to
say
Il
n'avait
que
ces
quelques
mots
clairs
et
simples
à
dire
I
am
going,
I
am
going
Je
pars,
je
pars
Any
which
way
the
wind
may
be
blowing
Peu
importe
où
le
vent
peut
souffler
I
am
going,
I
am
going
Je
pars,
je
pars
Where
streams
of
whiskey
are
flowing
Où
coulent
les
courants
de
whisky
I
have
cursed,
bled
and
sworn
J'ai
maudit,
saigné
et
juré
Jumped
bail
and
landed
up
in
jail
J'ai
sauté
la
caution
et
j'ai
fini
en
prison
Life
has
often
tried
to
stretch
me
La
vie
a
souvent
essayé
de
m'étirer
But
the
rope
always
was
slack
Mais
la
corde
était
toujours
lâche
And
now
that
I've
a
pile
Et
maintenant
que
j'ai
une
pile
I′ll
go
down
to
the
Chelsea
Je
vais
aller
à
Chelsea
I'll
walk
in
on
my
feet
Je
vais
y
entrer
sur
mes
pieds
But
I'll
leave
there
on
my
back
Mais
je
vais
en
sortir
sur
le
dos
Because
I
am
going,
I
am
going
Parce
que
je
pars,
je
pars
Any
which
way
the
wind
may
be
blowing
Peu
importe
où
le
vent
peut
souffler
I
am
going,
I
am
going
Je
pars,
je
pars
Where
streams
of
whiskey
are
flowing
Où
coulent
les
courants
de
whisky
Oh
the
words
that
he
spoke
Oh,
les
mots
qu'il
a
prononcés
Seemed
the
wisest
of
philosophies
Ont
semblé
être
les
plus
sages
des
philosophies
There′s
nothing
ever
gained
Il
n'y
a
jamais
rien
de
gagné
By
a
wet
thing
called
a
tear
Par
une
chose
humide
appelée
une
larme
When
the
world
is
too
dark
Quand
le
monde
est
trop
sombre
And
I
need
the
light
inside
of
me
Et
que
j'ai
besoin
de
la
lumière
en
moi
I′ll
walk
into
a
bar
Je
vais
entrer
dans
un
bar
And
drink
fifteen
pints
of
beer
Et
boire
quinze
pintes
de
bière
I
am
going,
I
am
going
Je
pars,
je
pars
Any
which
way
the
wind
may
be
blowing
Peu
importe
où
le
vent
peut
souffler
I
am
going,
I
am

Je
