Il faut marcher [English translation]

You've gotta walk

You've gotta walk, walk a lot

To go where I go

Sometimes I'd like to stop,

I unpacked my bag

and I set off again the next dag,

Suitcase in my hand

It's still not this time

This isn't yet the time,

That I will be at home

Where I am there's a lot of roads

Too many wasted efforts

and If someone reaches out their hand

It's never for nothing

So I leave the next day

Suitcase in hand

Sorry to have disturbed you

I'm just passin' through

though one day I'll have

my own bed, always the same one

and I'll sleep in the arms

Of a woman, always the same

who I love (3x)

Loves me (2x) who will love me

You've got to walk, walk alot

To go where I do

Sometimes, I'd like to stop

I unpack my bags,

I leave again the next day

Suitcase in my hand

Maybe the next time,

I'll be at home.
