Lyrics and translation Woody Guthrie - End of the Line




End of the Line
Fin de ligne
′Long about nineteen thirty-one,
Vers 1931,
My field boiled up in the boiling sun.
Mon champ bouillonnait sous le soleil brûlant.
'Long about nineteen thirty-two,
Vers 1932,
Dust did rise and the dust it blew.
La poussière s'élevait et soufflait.
′Long about nineteen thirty-three,
Vers 1933,
Livin' in the dust was a killin' me.
Vivre dans la poussière me tuait.
′Long about nineteen thirty-four,
Vers 1934,
Dangburn dust it blew some more.
La poussière maudite soufflait encore.
′Long about nineteen thirty-five,
Vers 1935,
Blowed my crops about nine miles high.
Elle a emporté mes récoltes à neuf kilomètres de haut.
'Long about nineteen thirty-six,
Vers 1936,
Me and my wife in a devil of a fix.
Ma femme et moi étions dans une situation difficile.
′Long about nineteen thirty-nine
Vers 1939
We fanned our tails for that Orgegon line.
On a couru vers l'Oregon.
We got a hold of a piece of land,
On a trouvé un terrain,
Thirteen miles from the Coulee dam.
À 21 kilomètres du barrage de Grand Coulee.
Coulee dam is a sight to see,
Le barrage de Grand Coulee, c'est un spectacle,
Makes this e-lec-a-tric-i-tee
Il produit de l'électricité.
'Lectric lights is mighty fine,
L'électricité, c'est vraiment bien,
If you′re hooked on to the power line
Si tu es branché au réseau.
There just ain't no country extra fine.
Il n'y a pas de pays plus beau,
If you′re just a mile from the end o' the line.
Si tu es à un kilomètre de la fin du monde.
Milk my cows and turn my stone,
Je trais mes vaches et je tourne ma pierre,
Till them Grand Coullee boys come along.
Jusqu'à ce que les gars de Grand Coulee arrivent.
My eyes are crossed, my back's in a cramp,
Mes yeux sont croisés, mon dos est raide,
Tryin′ to read my bible by my coal-oil lamp.
J'essaie de lire ma Bible avec ma lampe à pétrole.
No, there ain′t no country worth a dime,
Non, il n'y a pas de pays qui vaut un sou,
If I'm just a mile from the end o′ the line.
Si je suis à un kilomètre de la fin du monde.
