Lyrics and translation Al Kooper - John The Baptist




John The Baptist
Jean le Baptiste
Holy John is down by the water
Le Saint Jean est là-bas près de l'eau
Bathin' sinners and he wants your daughter
Il baptise les pécheurs et il veut ta fille
Tellin' people that they better repent
Il dit aux gens qu'ils feraient mieux de se repentir
Tellin' your daughter that it's him who was sent
Il dit à ta fille que c'est lui qui a été envoyé
I saw him down there in a long white gown
Je l'ai vu là-bas dans une longue robe blanche
Takin' sinners and holdin' them down
Il prend les pécheurs et les maintient sous l'eau
John, John, woncha wash 'em away
Jean, Jean, ne peux-tu pas les purifier
Make us ready for the judgment day
Rends-nous prêts pour le jour du jugement
Take us down and hold us under
Emmène-nous et maintiens-nous sous l'eau
Make the heavens roar with thunder now
Fais rugir les cieux d'un coup de tonnerre maintenant
The waters are dirty and the reason is
Les eaux sont sales et la raison en est
Holy John had to wash away our sins
Le Saint Jean a dû laver nos péchés
He came to town two weeks ago
Il est venu en ville il y a deux semaines
It didn't take long before everyone did know
Il n'a pas fallu longtemps avant que tout le monde ne le sache
And down to the riverside they all did flock
Et ils ont tous afflué vers la rivière
To watch him stand upon the rock
Pour le regarder se tenir sur le rocher
I saw him down there in a long white gown
Je l'ai vu là-bas dans une longue robe blanche
Takin' sinners and holdin' them down
Il prend les pécheurs et les maintient sous l'eau
John, John, woncha wash 'em away
Jean, Jean, ne peux-tu pas les purifier
Make us ready for the comin' day
Rends-nous prêts pour le jour de la venue
Take us down and hold us under
Emmène-nous et maintiens-nous sous l'eau
Make the heavens roar with thunder now
Fais rugir les cieux d'un coup de tonnerre maintenant
The waters are dirty and the reason is
Les eaux sont sales et la raison en est
Holy John had to wash away our sins
Le Saint Jean a dû laver nos péchés
The waters are dirty and the reason is
Les eaux sont sales et la raison en est
Holy John had to wash away our sins
Le Saint Jean a dû laver nos péchés
It's Holy John
C'est le Saint Jean
