Lyrics and translation Bessie Smith - Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out




Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out
Personne ne te connaît quand tu es au fond du trou
Once I lived the life of a millionaire,
J'ai déjà vécu la vie d'un millionnaire,
Spending my money, I didn't care
J'ai dépensé mon argent, je m'en fichais
I carried my friends out for a good time,
J'ai emmené mes amis pour passer un bon moment,
Buying bootleg liquor, champagne and wine
J'ai acheté du whisky de contrebande, du champagne et du vin
Then I began to fall so low,
Puis j'ai commencé à sombrer si bas,
I didn't have a friend, and no place to go
Je n'avais plus d'ami et nulle part aller
So if I ever get my hand on a dollar again,
Alors si je mets la main sur un dollar à nouveau,
I'm gonna hold on to it till them eagle's grin
Je vais m'y accrocher jusqu'à ce que l'aigle me le prenne
Nobody knows you when you down and out
Personne ne te connaît quand tu es au fond du trou
In my pocket not one penny,
Pas un sou dans ma poche,
And my friends I haven't any
Et plus aucun ami
But If I ever get on my feet again,
Mais si je me remets sur mes pieds à nouveau,
Then I'll meet my long lost friend
Alors je retrouverai mon ami perdu de vue
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
C'est vraiment étrange, c'est indéniable
Nobody knows you when you down and out
Personne ne te connaît quand tu es au fond du trou
I mean when you down and out
Je veux dire quand tu es au fond du trou
Mmmmm, when you're down and out,
Mmmmm, quand tu es au fond du trou,
Mmmmm, not one penny
Mmmmm, pas un sou
And my friends I haven't any,
Et plus aucun ami,
Mmmmm, well I felt so low
Mmmmm, j'ai tellement mal
Nobody wants me round their door,
Personne ne veut me voir à leur porte,
Mmmmm, without a doubt,
Mmmmm, c'est indéniable,
No man can use you wen you down and out
Personne ne peut t'utiliser quand tu es au fond du trou
I mean when you down and out
Je veux dire quand tu es au fond du trou
