Lyrics and translation Willie Nelson - Red-Headed Stranger (Live)
Red-Headed Stranger (Live)
L'Étranger à la chevelure rousse (Live)
And
the
red-headed
stranger
from
Blue
Rock,
Montana
Et
l'étranger
à
la
chevelure
rousse
de
Blue
Rock,
Montana
Rode
into
town
one
day
Est
arrivé
en
ville
un
jour
And
under
his
knees
was
a
raging
black
stallion
Et
sous
ses
genoux,
un
étalon
noir
féroce
And
walking
behind
was
a
bay
Et
derrière
lui
marchait
une
baie
The
red-headed
stranger
had
eyes
like
the
thunder
L'étranger
à
la
chevelure
rousse
avait
des
yeux
comme
le
tonnerre
And
his
lips,
they
were
sad
and
tight
Et
ses
lèvres,
elles
étaient
tristes
et
serrées
And
his
little
lost
love
lay
asleep
on
the
hillside
Et
sa
petite
amour
perdue
dormait
sur
la
colline
And
his
heart
was
heavy
as
night
Et
son
cœur
était
lourd
comme
la
nuit
So
don't
cross
him,
don't
boss
him
Alors
ne
le
traverse
pas,
ne
le
commande
pas
He's
wild
in
his
sorrow
Il
est
sauvage
dans
son
chagrin
He's
riding
and
he's
hiding
his
pain
Il
chevauche
et
il
cache
sa
douleur
Don't
fight
him,
don't
spite
him
Ne
le
combats
pas,
ne
le
méprise
pas
Just
wait
'til
tomorrow
Attends
juste
demain
Maybe
he'll
ride
on
again
Peut-être
qu'il
repartira
A
yellow-haired
lady
leaned
out
of
her
window
Une
dame
aux
cheveux
blonds
s'est
penchée
par
sa
fenêtre
And
watched
as
he
passed
her
way
Et
a
regardé
alors
qu'il
passait
devant
elle
She
drew
back
in
fear
at
the
sight
of
the
stallion
Elle
a
reculé
de
peur
à
la
vue
de
l'étalon
But
cast
greedy
eyes
on
the
bay
Mais
elle
a
jeté
des
regards
avides
sur
la
baie
But
how
could
she
know
that
this
dancing
bay
pony
Mais
comment
pouvait-elle
savoir
que
ce
poney
baie
dansant
Meant
more
to
him
than
life?
Signifiait
plus
pour
lui
que
la
vie
?
For
this
was
the
horse
that
his
little
lost
darling
Car
c'était
le
cheval
que
sa
petite
amour
perdue
Had
ridden
when
she
was
his
wife
Avait
monté
quand
elle
était
sa
femme
So
don't
cross
him,
don't
boss
him
Alors
ne
le
traverse
pas,
ne
le
commande
pas
He's
wild
in
his
sorrow
Il
est
sauvage
dans
son
chagrin
He's
riding
and
he's
hiding
his
pain
Il
chevauche
et
il
cache
sa
douleur
Don't
fight
him,
don't
spite
him
Ne
le
combats
pas,
ne
le
méprise
pas
Just
wait
'til
tomorrow
Attends
juste
demain
Maybe
he'll
ride
on
again
Peut-être
qu'il
repartira
The
yellow-haired
lady
came
down
to
the
tavern
La
dame
aux
cheveux
blonds
est
descendue
à
la
taverne
And
looked
up
the
stranger
there
Et
a
regardé
l'étranger
là-bas
And
he
bought
her
a
drink
and
he
gave
her
some
money
Et
il
lui
a
acheté
un
verre
et
lui
a
donné
de
l'argent
But
he
just
didn't
seem
to
care
Mais
il
ne
semblait
pas
s'en
soucier
She
followed
him
out
as
he
saddled
his
stallion
Elle
l'a
suivi
alors
qu'il
sella
son
étalon
And
laughed
when
she
grabbed
at
the
bay
Et
a
ri
quand
elle
a
attrapé
la
baie
And
he
shot
her
so
quick,
they
had
no
time
to
warn
her
Et
il
lui
a
tiré
dessus
si
vite
qu'ils
n'ont
pas
eu
le
temps
de
la
prévenir
She
never
heard
anyone
say
Elle
n'a
jamais
entendu
personne
dire
"Don't
cross
him,
don't
boss
him
"Ne
le
traverse
pas,
ne
le
commande
pas
"He's
wild
in
his
sorrow
"Il
est
sauvage
dans
son
chagrin
He's
riding
and
he's
hiding
his
pain
Il
chevauche
et
il

"Don't

"Ne

"Just

"Attends

demain
"Maybe
he'll
ride
on
again"
"Peut-être
qu'il
repartira"
The
yellow-haired
lady
was
buried
at
sunset
La
dame
aux
cheveux
blonds
a
été
enterrée
au
coucher
du
soleil
And
the
stranger
went
free,
of
course
Et
l'étranger
a
été
libéré,
bien
sûr
For
you
can't
hang
a
man
for
killing
a
woman
Car
on
ne
peut
pas
pendre
un
homme
pour
avoir
tué
une
femme
Who's
trying
to
steal
your
horse
Qui
essaie
de
voler
votre
cheval
This
is
the
tale
of
the
red
headed
stranger
C'est
l'histoire
de
l'étranger
à
la
chevelure
rousse
And
if
he
should
pass
your
way
Et
s'il
devait
passer
par
chez
toi
Stay
out
of
the
path
of
the
raging
black
stallion
Reste
à
l'écart
du
chemin
de
l'étalon
noir
féroce
And
don't
lay
a
hand
on
the
bay
Et
ne
pose
pas
la
main
sur
la
baie
Don't
cross
him,
don't
boss
him
Ne
le
traverse
pas,
ne
le
commande
pas
He's
wild
in
his

Il

dans

Just

demain
Maybe
he'll
ride
on
again
Peut-être
qu'il

And
it
was
the
time
of
the
preacher
Et
c'était
le
temps
du
prédicateur
İn
the
air
above
one
Dans
l'air
au-dessus
de
l'un
Just
when
you
think
it's
all
over
Juste
quand
tu
penses
que
tout
est
fini
It's
only
be
gone
Ce
ne
sera
que
parti
