Lyrics and translation Tom Paxton - Hobo In My Mind - Live At the Marquee Club, London
p
on
Smoky
mountain,
Sur
la
montagne
fumeuse,
Drinking
from
a
soda
fountain,
Buvant
à
une
fontaine
à
soda,
That's
where
I
was
when
I
was,
C'est
là
que
j'étais
quand
j'étais,
A
hobo
in
my
mind.
Un
clochard
dans
ma
tête.
Hoppin'
freights
and
pickin'
dates,
Sauter
sur
les
trains
et
choisir
des
rendez-vous,
Gobblin'
beans
from
old
tin
plates,
Manger
des
haricots
dans
de
vieilles
assiettes
en
étain,
It
seems
like
years
since
I
was
just
Il
me
semble
que
c'était
il
y
a
des
années
que
j'étais
juste
A
hobo
in
my
mind.
Un
clochard
dans
ma
tête.
It
did
no
harm,
it
set
my
mind,
Cela
ne
faisait
aucun
mal,
ça
me
mettait
l'esprit,
To
dreamin'
of
a
way,
À
rêver
d'une
manière,
To
get
my
hands
on
something,
Pour
mettre
la
main
sur
quelque
chose,
That
I
had
to
find
someday.
Que
je
devais
trouver
un
jour.
Far
beyond
Chicago,
Loin
au-delà
de
Chicago,
Somewhere
where
the
longest
trains
go,
Quelque
part
où
les
trains
les
plus
longs
vont,
That's
where
I
was
when
I
was,
C'est
là
que
j'étais
quand
j'étais,
A
hobo
in
my
mind.
Un
clochard
dans
ma
tête.
Me
and
a
couple
of
buddies,
Moi
et
quelques
copains,
We
didn't
care
if
our
shoes
got
muddy.
On
s'en
fichait
que
nos
chaussures
soient
boueuses.
We
didn't
care
where
the
trains
were
bound,
On
s'en
fichait
de
la
destination
des
trains,
We'd
ride
them
rascals
blind.
On
les
montait
à
l'aveugle,
ces
coquins.
Oh,
maybe
I
was
crazy,
Oh,
peut-être
que
j'étais
fou,
Maybe
just
my
foolish
ways,
Peut-être
juste
mes
façons
stupides,
But
that's
where
I
was
when
I
was,
Mais
c'est
là
que
j'étais
quand
j'étais,
A
hobo
in
my
mind.
Un
clochard
dans
ma
tête.
It
did
no
harm,
it
set
my
mind,
Cela
ne
faisait
aucun
mal,
ça
me
mettait
l'esprit,
To
dreamin'
of
a
way,
À
rêver
d'une
manière,
To
get
my
hands
on
something,
Pour
mettre
la
main
sur
quelque
chose,
That
I
had
to
find
someday.
Que
je
devais
trouver
un
jour.
