Lyrics and translation Bessie Smith - Cake Walkin' Babies
Cake
walkers
may
come,
cake
walkers
may
go
Les
danseurs
de
cake
walk
peuvent
venir,
les
danseurs
de
cake
walk
peuvent
partir
But
I
wanna
tell
you
'bout
a
couple
I
know
Mais
je
veux
te
parler
d'un
couple
que
je
connais
High
steppin'
pair,
Debonair
Une
paire
qui
se
pavane,
élégante
When
it
comes
for
bus'ness
not
a
soul
can
compare
Quand
il
s'agit
d'affaires,
personne
ne
peut
rivaliser
Here
they
come,
look
at
'em,
demonstratin'
Les
voilà,
regarde-les,
ils
font
une
démonstration
Goin'
some,
ain't
they
syncopatin'?
Ils
s'en
donnent
à
cœur
joie,
n'est-ce
pas
qu'ils
sont
syncopés
?
Talk
of
the
town,
teasin'
brown
pickin'
'em
up
and
layin'
'em
down
Le
sujet
de
conversation
en
ville,
ils
taquinent
les
brunes,
les
prennent
et
les
posent
Dancin'
fools
ain't
they
demonstratin'?
Des
fous
qui
dansent,
n'est-ce
pas
qu'ils
font
une
démonstration
?
They're
a
class
of
their
own
Ils
sont
une
classe
à
part
Now
the
only
way
to
win
is
to
cheat
'em
Maintenant,
la
seule
façon
de
gagner
est
de
les
tricher
You
may
tie
'em
but
you'll
never
beat
'em
Tu
peux
les
égaler,
mais
tu
ne
pourras
jamais
les
battre
Strut
your
stuff,
they're
the
cake
walkin'
babies
from
home
Montre
ton
talent,
ce
sont
les
bébés
danseurs
de
cake
walk
du
coin
Strut
