Lyrics and translation Waylon Jennings - White Lightnin'
Well,
in
North
Carolina
way
back
in
the
hills
Eh
bien,
dans
les
montagnes
de
Caroline
du
Nord,
il
y
a
longtemps
Lived
my
old
pappy
and
he
had
him
a
still
Vivait
mon
vieux
papa,
et
il
avait
son
alambic
He
brewed
white
lightnin'
till
the
sun
went
down
Il
brassait
l'éclair
blanc
jusqu'au
coucher
du
soleil
And
then
he'd
fill
him
a
jug,
he'd
pass
it
around
Puis
il
remplissait
une
cruche,
et
la
faisait
passer
de
main
en
main
Mighty,
mighty
pleasin',
pappy's
corn
squeezin'
Tellement,
tellement
agréable,
l'éclair
de
maïs
de
papa
White
lightnin'
Éclair
blanc
Yeah,
the
G-men,
T-men,
revenuers
too
Ouais,
les
agents
du
G-men,
les
T-men,
les
agents
des
impôts
aussi
Searchin'
for
the
place
where
he
made
his
brew
Cherchaient
l'endroit
où
il
faisait
sa
bière
They
were
lookin',
tryin'
to
book
him
Ils
cherchaient,
essayant
de
l'arrêter
But
my
pappy
kept
on
cookin'
Mais
mon
papa
a
continué
à
cuisiner
White
lightnin'
Éclair
blanc
Well,
I
asked
my
old
pappy
why
he
called
his
brew
Eh
bien,
j'ai
demandé
à
mon
vieux
papa
pourquoi
il
appelait
sa
bière
White
lightnin'
'stead
of
mountain
dew
Éclair
blanc
au
lieu
de
mountain
dew
I
took
a
little
sip
and
right
away
I
knew
as
J'ai
pris
une
petite
gorgée,
et
j'ai
tout
de
suite
compris
que
As
my
eyes
bugged
out
and
my
face
turned
blue
Mes
yeux
sont
sortis
de
leurs
orbites,
et
mon
visage
est
devenu
bleu
Lightnin'
started
flashin',
thunder
started
crashin'
L'éclair
a
commencé
à
scintiller,
le
tonnerre
a
commencé
à
gronder
White
lightnin'
Éclair

Well,
a
city
slicker
came
and
he
said,
"I'm
tough
Eh
bien,
un
citadin
est
venu,
et
il
a
dit:
"Je
suis
dur
I
think
I
wanna
taste
that
powerful
stuff"
Je
pense
que
j'aimerais
goûter
à
cette
puissante
boisson"
He
took
one
swift
slug
and
he
drank
it
right
down
Il
a
pris
une
grosse
gorgée,
et
il
l'a
bue
d'un
trait
And
I
heard
him
moanin'
as
he
hit
the
ground
Et
je
l'ai
entendu
gémir
alors
qu'il
tombait
au
sol
Mighty,
