Amadie

Andrew Ranken

Voici une histoire d'un homme cajun

Amadie Adouin etat son nom

Avec sa guitare et avec sa voix

Amadie Adouin etait le roi

In a town separated by railroad tracks

When one side's white the other side must be black

La sueur brulait dans ses yeux

Les blancs ont crie n' arrete pas

Quand Amadie pouvait plus jouer

Il demandait a Celine son mouchoir

Black were the tears Amadie Adouin cried

Tears a white handkerchief just could not hide

Les bois d'Arcadia Ils sont morts

Au fond de la terre Amadie s'endort

Mais si vous voulez ecouter sa voix

Demande aux Ricains de la chercher d'en bas

They ran right over Amadie's vocal cords

Good old boys in a good ol' Model T Ford

Amadie took a walk by the railroad track

To the other side and he won't be coming back

They ran right over Amadie's vocal cords

Those good old boys in a good old Model T Ford

Amadie took a walk by the railroad track

To the other side and he won't be coming back
