Benny Carter - You Took Advantage of Me - translation of the lyrics into French

Lyrics and translation Benny Carter - You Took Advantage of Me




You Took Advantage of Me
Tu as profité de moi
When a girl has the heart of a mother
Quand une fille a le cœur d'une mère
It must go to someone of course
Il faut bien qu'il aille à quelqu'un
It can't be sister or brother
Ce ne peut pas être une sœur ou un frère
And so I love my horse
Alors j'aime mon cheval
But horses are frequently silly
Mais les chevaux sont souvent bêtes
Mine ran from the beach of Okhala
Le mien a fui la plage d'Okhala
And left me alone for a filly
Et m'a laissé seul pour une pouliche
So I have picked you up
Alors je t'ai ramassé
I'm a sentimental sap, that's all
Je suis un sentimental, c'est tout
What's the use of trying not to fall?
A quoi bon essayer de ne pas tomber ?
I have no will, you've made your kill
Je n'ai aucune volonté, tu as fait ton coup
Cause you took advantage of me
Parce que tu as profité de moi
I'm just like an apple on a bough
Je suis comme une pomme sur une branche
And you're gonna shake me down somehow
Et tu vas me secouer d'une façon ou d'une autre
So, what's the use, you've cooked my goose
Alors, à quoi bon, tu m'as fait perdre la tête
Cause you took advantage of me
Parce que tu as profité de moi
I'm so hot and bothered that
Je suis tellement excité que
I don't know my elbow from my ear
Je ne sais pas mon coude de mon oreille
I suffer something awful each time
Je souffre terriblement chaque fois
You go and much worse when you're near
Tu pars, et encore plus quand tu es près
Here I am with all my bridges burned
Me voilà avec tous mes ponts brûlés
Just a babe in arms where you're concerned
Juste un bébé dans les bras tu es concerné
So lock the doors and call me yours
Alors ferme les portes et appelle-moi tien
Cause you took advantage of me.
Parce que tu as profité de moi.
I'm a sentimental sap, that's all
Je suis un sentimental, c'est tout
What's the use of trying not to fall?
A quoi bon essayer de ne pas tomber ?
I have no will, you've made your kill
Je n'ai aucune volonté, tu as fait ton coup
Cause you took advantage of me
Parce que tu as profité de moi
I'm just like an apple on a bough
Je suis comme une pomme sur une branche
And you're gonna shake me down somehow
Et tu vas me secouer d'une façon ou d'une autre
So, what's the use, you've cooked my goose
Alors, à quoi bon, tu m'as fait perdre la tête
Cause you took advantage of me
Parce que tu as profité de moi
I'm so hot and bothered that
Je suis tellement excité que
I don't know my elbow from my ear
Je ne sais pas mon coude de mon oreille
I suffer something awful each time
Je souffre terriblement chaque fois
You go and much worse when you're near
Tu pars, et encore plus quand tu es près
Here I am with all my bridges burned
Me voilà avec tous mes ponts brûlés
Just a babe in arms where you're concerned
Juste un bébé dans les bras tu es concerné
So lock the doors and call me yours
Alors ferme les portes et appelle-moi tien
Cause you took advantage of me
Parce que tu as profité de moi
You took advantage of me
Tu as profité de moi
