Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Yeah, I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road

I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more

I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road

I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more

Southern nights, lying down listening to the river flow

Hearing a gentle call amidst the stormy midnight

Southern nights, lying down listening to the distant sound of horses' hooves

Hearing of horses crossing the river since ancient times

Southern nights, looking up at the clouds and rising smoke

Watching the rolling stones tilt and sway…

Ride 'til I can't no more!

Hat down, cross-town, livin' like a rockstar

Spent a lot of money on my brand-new guitar

Baby's got a habit: diamond rings and Fendi sports bras

Ridin' down Rodeo in my Maserati sports car

Got no stress, I've been through all that

I'm like a Marlboro Man so I kick on back

Wish I could roll on back to that old town road

I wanna ride 'til I can't no more

Yeah, I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road

I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more

I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road

I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more

Clip-clop, clip-clop, the black horse, the black horse

The black horse, a thousand years of longing

How many songs does this country hold?

Ride 'til I can't no more

[Vietnamese]

Yeah, I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road

I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more

I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road

I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more

Đêm phương Nam nằm nghe dòng sông nước chảy

Nghe một tiếng âu ở nửa đêm bão giông

Đêm phương Nam nằm nghe đường xa vó ngựa

Nghe từ thuở hồng hoang ngựa qua bến sông

Đêm phương Nam nhìn lên mây bay khói tỏa

Nhìn hòn đá lăn nghiêng nghiêng...

Ride 'til I can't no more!

Hat down, cross-town, livin' like a rockstar

Spent a lot of money on my brand-new guitar

Baby's got a habit: diamond rings and Fendi sports bras

Ridin' down Rodeo in my Maserati sports car

Got no stress, I've been through all that

I'm like a Marlboro Man so I kick on back

Wish I could roll on back to that old town road

I wanna ride 'til I can't no more

Yeah, I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road

I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more

I'm gonna take my horse to the old town road

I'm gonna ride 'til I can't no more

Khớp khớp khớp khớp con ngựa ô, ngựa ô

ngựa ô ngàn năm thương nhớ

Đất nước có bao bài ca

Ride 'til I can't no more
