Lyrics and translation Kenny Rogers - The Greatest
The Greatest
Le plus grand
Little
boy
in
a
baseball
hat
Petit
garçon
avec
un
chapeau
de
baseball
Stands
in
the
field
with
his
ball
and
bat
Se
tient
sur
le
terrain
avec
sa
batte
et
sa
balle
Says,
I
am
the
greatest
player
of
them
all.
Il
dit
: Je
suis
le
plus
grand
joueur
de
tous.
Put
his
bat
on
his
shoulder
and
he
tosses
up
the
ball.
Il
met
sa
batte
sur
son
épaule
et
lance
la
balle
en
l'air.
And
the
ball
goes
up
and
the
ball
comes
down
La
balle
monte,
la
balle
descend
Swings
his
bat
all
the
way
around
Il
balance
sa
batte
de
tout
son
corps
The
worlds
so
still
he
can
hear
the
sound
Le
monde
est
si
calme
qu'il
entend
le
bruit
The
baseball
falls
to
the
ground.
La
balle
de
baseball
tombe
au
sol.
Now
the
little
boy
doesn't
say
a
word
Le
petit
garçon
ne
dit
pas
un
mot
Picks
up
his
ball,
he
is
undeterred
Il
ramasse
sa
balle,
il
n'est
pas
découragé
Says,
I
am
the
greatest
there
has
ever
been.
Il
dit
: Je
suis
le
plus
grand
de
tous
les
temps.
And
he
grits
his
teeth
and
he
tries
it
again.
Il
serre
les
dents
et
réessaie.
And
the
ball
goes
up
and
the
ball
comes
down
La
balle
monte,
la
balle
descend
Swings
his
bat
all
the
way
around
Il
balance
sa
batte
de
tout
son
corps
The
worlds
so
still
he
can
hear
the
sound
Le
monde
est
si
calme
qu'il
entend
le
bruit
The
baseball
falls
to
the
ground.
La
balle
de
baseball
tombe
au
sol.
He
makes
no
excuses
Il
ne
cherche
pas
d'excuses
He
shows
no
fear
Il
ne
montre
pas
de
peur
He
just
closes
his
eyes
Il
ferme
juste
les
yeux
And
listens
to
the
cheers.
Et
écoute
les
acclamations.
Little
boy,
he
adjusts
his
hat
Le
petit
garçon
ajuste
son
chapeau
Picks
up
his
ball,
stares
at
his
bat
Ramasse
sa
balle,
regarde
sa
batte
Says,
I
am
the
greatest,
the
game
is
on
the
line.
Il
dit
: Je
suis
le
plus
grand,
le
jeu
est
sur
la
ligne.
And
he
gives
his
all
one
last
time.
Et
il
donne
tout
une
dernière
fois.
And
the
ball
goes
up
like
the
moons
so
bright
La
balle
monte
comme
la
lune
si
brillante
Swings
his
bat
with
all
his
might
Il
balance
sa
batte
de
toute
sa
force
And
the
worlds
so
still
as
still
can
be
Et
le
monde
est
si
calme,
si
calme
qu'on
puisse
l'être
And
the
baseball
falls
and
thats
strike
three.
Et
la
balle
de
baseball
tombe,
c'est
trois
coups.
Now
it's
suppertime
and
his
mama
calls
C'est
l'heure
du
souper
et
sa
maman
l'appelle
Little
boy
starts
home
with
his
bat
and
ball
Le
petit
garçon
rentre
à
la
maison
avec
sa
batte
et
sa
balle
Says,
I
am
the
greatest
that
is
a
fact.
Il
dit
: Je
suis
le
plus
grand,
c'est
un
fait.
But
even
I
didn't
know
I
could
pitch
like
that!
Mais
même
moi,
je
ne
savais
pas
que
je
pouvais
lancer
comme
ça
!
Says,
I
am
the
greatest
Il
dit
: Je
suis
le
plus
grand
That
is
understood
C'est
entendu
But
even
I
didn't
know
Mais
même
moi,
je
ne
savais
pas
I
could
pitch
that
good...
Que
je
pouvais
lancer
aussi
bien...
