Текст и перевод песни Vaughn Monroe - The Trolley Song

The Trolley Song

"Clang, clang, clang" went the trolley
"Ding, ding, ding" went the bell
"Zing, zing, zing" went my heartstrings
For the moment I saw him I fell

"Chug, chug, chug" went the motor
"Bump, bump, bump" went the brake
"Thump, thump, thump" went my heartstrings
When he smiled, I could feel the car shake

He tipped his hat, and took a seat
He said he hoped he hadn't stepped upon my feet
He asked my name I held my breath
I couldn't speak because he scared me half to death

"Buzz, buzz, buzz" went the buzzer
"Plop, plop, plop" went the wheels
"Stop, stop, stop" went my heartstrings
As he started to leave I took hold of his sleeve with my hand

And as if it were planned
He stayed on with me and it was grand
Just to stand with his hand holding mine
All the way to the end of the line

La chanson du tramway

"Clang, clang, clang" a sonné le tramway
"Ding, ding, ding" a sonné la cloche
"Zing, zing, zing" ont sonné mes cordes
Dès que je t'ai vue, je suis tombé amoureux

"Chug, chug, chug" a ronronné le moteur
"Bump, bump, bump" a freiné
"Thump, thump, thump" a battu mon cœur
Quand tu as souri, j'ai senti le tram trembler

Tu as salué, et tu t'es assise
Tu as dit que tu espérais ne pas avoir marché sur mes pieds
Tu as demandé mon nom, j'ai retenu mon souffle
Je n'ai pas pu parler car tu m'as fait peur à moitié

"Buzz, buzz, buzz" a sonné le buzzer
"Plop, plop, plop" ont roulé les roues
"Stop, stop, stop" a sonné mon cœur
Comme tu allais partir, j'ai attrapé ta manche avec ma main

Et comme si c'était prévu
Tu es restée avec moi, et c'était grandiose
Tout simplement être debout avec ta main dans la mienne
Tout le chemin jusqu'à la fin de la ligne
