Lyrics and translation Bessie Smith - I Ain't Got Nobody
There's
a
saying
going
'round
On
dit
que
c'est
vrai
And
I
begin
to
think
it's
true
Et
je
commence
à
penser
que
c'est
vrai
It's
awful
hard
to
love
someone
C'est
terriblement
difficile
d'aimer
quelqu'un
When
he
don't
care
for
you
Quand
il
ne
t'aime
pas
Once
I
had
a
lovin'
man
J'avais
un
homme
qui
m'aimait
As
good
as
many
in
this
town
Aussi
bon
que
beaucoup
dans
cette
ville
But
now
I'm
sad
and
lonely
Mais
maintenant
je
suis
triste
et
seule
He's
gone
and
turned
me
down
Il
est
parti
et
m'a
rejetée
I
ain't
got
nobody,
nobody
Je
n'ai
personne,
personne
Nobody
cares
for
me
Personne
ne
se
soucie
de
moi
I'm
awfully
sad
and
lonely
Je
suis
terriblement
triste
et
seule
Won't
some
good
man
Un
bon
homme
Take
a
chance
with
me?
Veut-il
tenter
sa
chance
avec
moi
?
I'll
sing
good
songs
all
the
time
Je
chanterai
de
belles
chansons
tout
le
temps
Want
someone
proud
to
be
a
man
of
mine
Je
veux
quelqu'un
qui
soit
fier
d'être
mon
homme
I
ain't
got
nobody,
nobody
Je
n'ai
personne,
personne
And
nobody
cares
for
me
Et
personne
ne
se
soucie
de
moi
I'll
sing
good
songs
all
the
time
Je
chanterai
de
belles
chansons
tout
le
temps
Won't
some
man
be
a
hand
of
mine?
Un
homme
ne
voudrait-il
pas
être
mon
bras
droit
?
I
ain't
got
nobody,
nobody
Je
n'ai
personne,
personne
And
nobody
cares
for
me
Et
personne
ne
se
soucie
de
moi
