Paroles et traduction Bernard Lavilliers - On the Road Again

On the Road Again

Nous étions jeunes et larges d'épaules
Bandits joyeux, insolents et drôles
On attendait que la mort nous frôle

On the road again, again
On the road again, again

Au petit jour on quittait l'Irlande
Et derrière nous s'éclairait la lande
Il fallait bien un jour qu'on nous pende

On the road again, again
On the road again, again

La mer revient toujours au rivage
Dans les blés mûrs y'a des fleurs sauvages
N'y pense plus, tu es de passage

On the road again, again
On the road again, again

Nous étions jeunes et larges d'épaules
On attendait que la mort nous frôle
Elle nous a pris les beaux et les drôles

On the road again, again
On the road again, again

Ami sais-tu que les mots d'amour
Voyagent mal de nos jours
Tu partiras encore plus lourd

On the road again, again
On the road again, again
On the road again, again
On the road again, again
On the road again

On the Road Again

We were young and broad-shouldered
Merry bandits, insolent and funny
We were waiting for death to touch us

On the road again, again
On the road again, again

At dawn we left Ireland
And behind us the heath lit up
One day we would have to be hanged

On the road again, again
On the road again, again

The sea always returns to the shore
In the ripe wheat there are wildflowers
Don't think about it anymore, you are just passing through

On the road again, again
On the road again, again

We were young and broad-shouldered
We were waiting for death to touch us
It has taken from us the beautiful and the funny

On the road again, again
On the road again, again

Darling, do you know that the words of love
Travel badly these days
You will leave even heavier

On the road again, again
On the road again, again
On the road again, again
On the road again, again
On the road again
