Daddy,

me
De

I'm
a
total
nervous
wreck
Je
suis
complètement
à
bout
de
nerfs
With
a
millstone
'round
my
neck
Avec
une
pierre
de
moulin
autour
du
cou
I'm
as
blue
as
any
gal
can
be
Je
suis
aussi
bleue
que
peut
l'être
une
fille
Don't
be
surprised
if
you
see
me
hanging
from
a
tree
Ne
sois
pas
surpris
si
tu
me
vois
pendue
à
un
arbre
Hangin'

Honte

à
blâmer,
je
suis
à
blâmer
For
lettin'
you

my
company
Pour
t'avoir
laissé
me
tenir
compagnie
I'm
a
poor,
weak
vessel
and
I
just
can't
help
myself
Je
suis
un
pauvre
vaisseau
faible
et
je
ne
peux
tout
simplement
pas
m'en
empêcher
And,
daddy,
when
you
quit
me,
I
can't
crawl
up
on
no
shelf
Et,
mon
chéri,
quand
tu
me
quittes,
je
ne
peux
pas
me
réfugier
sur
une
étagère
But
you
ought
to
be
ashamed,
ashamed,
ashamed
Mais
tu
devrais
avoir
honte,
honte,
honte
Ashamed
of
how
you
treatin'

dont
tu
me

Oui,

même
You
will
find
that
I
will
always
be
Tu
découvriras
que
je
serai
toujours
la
même
You
can
dodge
me
and
neglect
me
Tu
peux
m'éviter
et
me
négliger
Treat
me
like
a
hound
Me
traiter
comme
un
chien
I'll
be
here
waiting
for
you

of
runnin'
'round
Quand
tu
