Lyrics and translation Waylon Jennings - Long Way Back Home
(Gordon
Lightfoot)
(Gordon
Lightfoot)
From
the
railhead
to
the
boatyard
De
la
gare
au
chantier
naval
From
the
factory
to
the
farm
De
l'usine
à
la
ferme
From
the
mine
to
the
millyard
De
la
mine
à
la
scierie
I've
weathered
with
storms.
J'ai
affronté
les
tempêtes.
From
the
barroom
to
the
bedpost
Du
bar
au
pied
du
lit
I've
wasted
my
days
J'ai
gaspillé
mes
jours
And
all
I
have
is
my
drink
Et
tout
ce
que
j'ai,
c'est
mon
verre
And
the
time
left
to
think
but
the
times
slips
away.
Et
le
temps
qu'il
me
reste
pour
réfléchir,
mais
le
temps
s'échappe.
Just
look
at
my
face
Regarde
mon
visage
When
you
tell
me
goodbye
Quand
tu
me
dis
au
revoir
You
can
see
what
I'm
after
Tu
peux
voir
ce
que
je
recherche
By
the
look
in
my
eye.
Dans
le
regard
de
mes
yeux.
Just
walk
away
and
leave
me
alone
Va-t'en
et
laisse-moi
tranquille
'Cause
it's
a
long
way
back
home
Parce
que
c'est
un
long
chemin
pour
rentrer
chez
moi
Long
way
back
home.
Un
long
chemin
pour
rentrer
chez
moi.
