Lyrics and translation Bessie Smith - Oh Daddy Blues
Just
like
a
flower
I
am
fading
away
Comme
une
fleur,
je
suis
en
train
de
faner
The
doctor
call
to
see
me
′most
every
day
Le
docteur
vient
me
voir
presque
tous
les
jours
But
he
don't
do
me
no
good,
why?
Mais
il
ne
me
fait
aucun
bien,
pourquoi
?
Because
I′m
lonesome
for
you
Parce
que
je
suis
seule
sans
toi
And
if
you
care
for
me
Et
si
tu
tiens
à
moi
Then
you
will
listen
to
my
plea
Alors
tu
écouteras
ma
supplication
Oh,
daddy,
look
what
you
doin'
Oh,
chéri,
regarde
ce
que
tu
fais
Look
what
you
doin'
Regarde
ce
que
tu
fais
Oh,
daddy,
you
with
your
foolin′
Oh,
chéri,
avec
tes
bêtises
Think
what
you′re
losin'
Pense
à
ce
que
tu
perds
All
the
little
love
I
gave
you
Tout
le
petit
amour
que
je
t'ai
donné
Is
goin′
to
make
you
feel
so
awfully
blue
Va
te
rendre
si
terriblement
triste
When
you
miss
me
and
long
to
kiss
me
Quand
tu
me
manqueras
et
que
tu
voudras
m'embrasser
You'll
curse
the
day
that
you
ever
quit
me
Tu
maudiras
le
jour
où
tu
m'as
quittée
Oh,
daddy,
think
when
you′re
all
alone
Oh,
chéri,
pense
quand
tu
seras
tout
seul
You'll
get
so
lonely
just
wait
and
see
Tu
vas
être
tellement
seul,
attends
et
vois
But
there
will
be
someone
else
makin′
love
to
me
Mais
il
y
aura
quelqu'un
d'autre
qui
fera
l'amour
avec
moi
Then
daddy,
daddy,
you
won't
have
no
mama
at
all
Alors
chéri,
chéri,
tu
n'auras
plus
de
maman
du
tout
Oh,

You
know
that
you
are
getting
old
Tu
sais
que
tu
vieillis
You'll
miss
the
way,
I
baked
your
jelly
roll
Tu
vas
regretter
la
façon
dont
je
faisais
ton
gâteau
roulé
à
la
gelée
And
daddy,
daddy,
you
won′t
have
no
mama
at
all
Et
chéri,
chéri,
tu
n'auras

de
maman
du
tout
