Lodi

John Cameron Fogerty

Lyrics Translation

Just about a year ago
I set out on the road
Seekin' my fame and fortune
Lookin' for a pot of gold
Things got bad and things got worse
I guess you will know the tune
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again

Rode in on the Greyhound
I'll be walkin' out if I go
I was just passin' through
Must be seven months or more
Ran out of time and money
Looks like they took my friends
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

The man from the magazine
Said I was on my way
Somewhere I lost connections
I ran out of songs to play
I came into town, a one night stand
Looks like my plans fell through
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again

If I only had a dollar
For ev'ry song I've sung
Ev'ry time I've had to play
While people sat there drunk
You know, I'd catch the next train
Back to where I live
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

Just about a year ago
Apenas cerca de um ano atrás
I set out on the road
Eu saí para a estrada
Seekin' my fame and fortune
Buscando minha fama e fortuna
Lookin' for a pot of gold
Procurando por um pote de ouro
Things got bad and things got worse
As coisas ficaram ruins e as coisas pioraram
I guess you will know the tune
Eu acho que você vai saber a melodia
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh Senhor, preso em Lodi novamente
Rode in on the Greyhound
Cheguei no Greyhound
I'll be walkin' out if I go
Eu vou sair se eu for
I was just passin' through
Eu estava apenas de passagem
Must be seven months or more
Deve ser sete meses ou mais
Ran out of time and money
Fiquei sem tempo e sem dinheiro
Looks like they took my friends
Parece que eles levaram meus amigos
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Senhor, estou preso em Lodi novamente
The man from the magazine
O homem da revista
Said I was on my way
Disse que eu estava no meu caminho
Somewhere I lost connections
Em algum lugar eu perdi os contatos
I ran out of songs to play
Fiquei sem músicas para tocar
I came into town, a one night stand
Eu vim para a cidade, um caso de uma noite
Looks like my plans fell through
Parece que meus planos falharam
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh Senhor, preso em Lodi novamente
If I only had a dollar
Se eu tivesse apenas um dólar
For ev'ry song I've sung
Por cada música que eu cantei
Ev'ry time I've had to play
Toda vez que eu tive que tocar
While people sat there drunk
Enquanto as pessoas estavam sentadas bêbadas
You know, I'd catch the next train
Sabe, eu conseguiria pegar o próximo trem
Back to where I live
De volta para onde eu moro
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Senhor, estou preso em Lodi novamente
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Senhor, estou preso em Lodi novamente
Just about a year ago
Apenas hace un año
I set out on the road
Salí a la carretera
Seekin' my fame and fortune
Buscando fama y fortuna
Lookin' for a pot of gold
Buscando una olla llena de oro
Things got bad and things got worse
Las cosas salieron mal y se pusieron peor
I guess you will know the tune
Supongo que conocerás la canción
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh, Señor, estoy atrapado en Lodi de nuevo
Rode in on the Greyhound
Llegue en el Greyhound
I'll be walkin' out if I go
Estaré caminando si me voy
I was just passin' through
Solo estaba pasando por aquí
Must be seven months or more
Deben haber pasado siete meses o más
Ran out of time and money
Me quede sin tiempo y sin dinero
Looks like they took my friends
Parece que se llevaron a mis amigos
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh, Señor, estoy atrapado en Lodi de nuevo
The man from the magazine
El hombre de la revista
Said I was on my way
Dijo que yo iba en camino
Somewhere I lost connections
En algún lugar perdí las conexiones
I ran out of songs to play
Me quedé sin canciones que tocar
I came into town, a one night stand
Llegue al pueblo, una aventura de una noche
Looks like my plans fell through
Parece que mis planes se cayeron
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh, Señor, estoy atrapado en Lodi de nuevo
If I only had a dollar
Si tuviese un dolar
For ev'ry song I've sung
Por cada cancion que he cantado
Ev'ry time I've had to play
Cada vez que he tenido que tocar
While people sat there drunk
Mientras que la gente se sienta ahí, ebria
You know, I'd catch the next train
Tú sabes, que tomaría el siguiente tren
Back to where I live
De vuelta a donde vivo
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh, señor, estoy atrapado en Lodi de nuevo
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh, señor, estoy atrapado en Lodi de nuevo
Just about a year ago
Il y a un an à peu près
I set out on the road
J'ai pris la route
Seekin' my fame and fortune
Cherchant célébrité et fortune
Lookin' for a pot of gold
Cherchant la poule aux œufs d'or
Things got bad and things got worse
Les choses se sont mal passés et ont empirés
I guess you will know the tune
J'imagine que tu vas connaître la chanson
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh, Seigneur, je suis coincé dans Lodi une nouvelle fois
Rode in on the Greyhound
J'ai pris le Greyhound
I'll be walkin' out if I go
Je m'enfuierai si je pars
I was just passin' through
Je ne faisais que passer
Must be seven months or more
Ça doit faire sept mois ou plus
Ran out of time and money
À court de temps et d'argent
Looks like they took my friends
On dirait qu'ils ont pris mes amis
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh, Seigneur, je suis coincé dans Lodi une nouvelle fois
The man from the magazine
L'homme des magazines
Said I was on my way
A dit que j'étais en route
Somewhere I lost connections
J'ai perdu des connections quelque part
I ran out of songs to play
À court de chansons à jouer
I came into town, a one night stand
Je suis arrivé en ville, pour une seule nuit
Looks like my plans fell through
On dirait que mes plans sont tombés à l'eau
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh, Seigneur, je suis coincé dans Lodi une nouvelle fois
If I only had a dollar
Si seulement j'avais un dollar
For ev'ry song I've sung
Pour toutes les chansons que j'ai chanté
Ev'ry time I've had to play
Chaque fois que je devais jouer
While people sat there drunk
Pendant que des gens étaient assis là, ivres
You know, I'd catch the next train
Tu sais, je prendrais le prochain train
Back to where I live
Pour revenir là où j'habitais
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh, Seigneur, je suis coincé dans Lodi une nouvelle fois
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh, Seigneur, je suis coincé dans Lodi une nouvelle fois

Vor etwa einem Jahr
I set out on the road
Bin ich auf die Straße gegangen
Seekin' my fame and fortune
Suchte meinen Ruhm und Reichtum
Lookin' for a pot of gold
Suchte nach einem Topf voll Gold
Things got bad and things got worse
Die Dinge wurden schlecht und die Dinge wurden schlimmer
I guess you will know the tune
Ich denke, du wirst die Melodie kennen
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh Herr, schon wieder in Lodi feststecken
Rode in on the Greyhound
Bin mit dem Greyhound angekommen
I'll be walkin' out if I go
Ich werde zu Fuß gehen, wenn ich gehe
I was just passin' through
Ich war nur auf der Durchreise
Must be seven months or more
Muss sieben Monate oder mehr sein
Ran out of time and money
Habe Zeit und Geld ausgegeben
Looks like they took my friends
Sieht so aus, als hätten sie meine Freunde genommen
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Herr, ich stecke schon wieder in Lodi fest
The man from the magazine
Der Mann aus dem Magazin
Said I was on my way
Sagte, ich wäre auf meinem Weg
Somewhere I lost connections
Irgendwo habe ich den Anschluss verloren
I ran out of songs to play
Mir gingen die Lieder zum Spielen aus
I came into town, a one night stand
Ich kam in die Stadt, ein One-Night-Stand
Looks like my plans fell through
Sieht so aus, als wären meine Pläne durchgefallen
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh Herr, schon wieder in Lodi feststecken
If I only had a dollar
Wenn ich nur einen Dollar hätte
For ev'ry song I've sung
Für jedes Lied, das ich gesungen habe
Ev'ry time I've had to play
Jedes Mal, wenn ich spielen musste
While people sat there drunk
Während die Leute dort betrunken saßen
You know, I'd catch the next train
Weißt du, ich würde den nächsten Zug nehmen
Back to where I live
Zurück zu dem Ort, an dem ich lebe
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Herr, ich stecke schon wieder in Lodi fest
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Herr, ich stecke schon wieder in Lodi fest
Just about a year ago
Circa un anno fa
I set out on the road
Mi sono messo in viaggio
Seekin' my fame and fortune
Cercando la mia fama e fortuna
Lookin' for a pot of gold
Cercando un pentolone d'oro
Things got bad and things got worse
Le cose sono andate male e sono peggiorate
I guess you will know the tune
Immagino che conoscerai la melodia
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh Signore, sono bloccato di nuovo a Lodi
Rode in on the Greyhound
Sono arrivato con il Greyhound
I'll be walkin' out if I go
Se me ne vado, andrò a piedi
I was just passin' through
Stavo solo di passaggio
Must be seven months or more
Devono essere passati sette mesi o più
Ran out of time and money

Said I was on my way
Ha detto che ero sulla mia strada
Somewhere I lost connections
Da qualche parte ho perso i contatti
I ran out of songs to play
Sono rimasto senza canzoni da suonare
I came into town, a one night stand
Sono arrivato in città, una notte sola
Looks like my plans fell through
Sembra che i miei piani siano andati a monte
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
Oh Signore, sono bloccato di nuovo a Lodi
If I only had a dollar
Se solo avessi un dollaro
For ev'ry song I've sung
Per ogni canzone che ho cantato
Ev'ry time I've had to play
Ogni volta che ho dovuto suonare
While people sat there drunk
Mentre la gente stava lì ubriaca
You know, I'd catch the next train
Sai, prenderei il prossimo treno
Back to where I live
Tornando a dove vivo
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Signore, sono bloccato di nuovo a Lodi
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
