Livin Up Country

Jake Bugg

Transposer:

[Intro] [Verse 1] Now I’m living in the country I was working up until I fell I only went down my ship had already sailed I met a girl out in Memphis it was going well I thought at first I only went down she left when she knew I’d fail [Chorus] And if I could understand Might finally get some rest at least Would I fight to make a stand I’d never look back Never have to look out for the man [Verse 2] When I was movin’ out the country Thought my luck came by and I was saved I couldn’t get out I found not check in the mail So I went up to Nashville It was going well but then went still I couldn’t get by lucky to live to tell the tale [Chorus] And if I could understand Might finally get some rest at least Would I fight to make a stand I’d never look back Never have to look out for the man And if I could understand Might finally get some rest at least Would I fight to take a stand I’d never look back Never have to look out for the man Said never look back Never have to look out for the man [Ending]

La chanson évoque la vie à la campagne, un changement radical par rapport à une vie antérieure très mouvementée. L’auteur, confronté à des échecs et à des désillusions, tente de comprendre ce qui lui arrive. Il se souvient d'une rencontre qui lui avait donné de l'espoir, mais tout dérape lorsqu'il réalise ses propres limites. Malgré les difficultés, il aspire à un repos intérieur et à une certaine sérénité, en souhaitant tourner la page et ne plus se soucier de ce que les autres pensent de lui. Le contexte semble illustrer une quête d'évasion et de paix après un tourbillon d'événements malheureux. Le protagoniste cherche à surmonter des obstacles et à se reconstruire, tout en remettant en question ses choix passés. C'est une réflexion sur la lutte personnelle et le besoin de trouver un sens à sa vie.
