Lyrics and translation Billie Holiday - Nice Work If You Can Get It (Damsel in Distress )




Nice Work If You Can Get It (Damsel in Distress )
Nice Work If You Can Get It (Damsel in Distress )
Holding hands at midnight
Se tenir par la main à minuit
′Neath a starry sky
Sous un ciel étoilé
It's nice work if you can get it
C'est du bon boulot si tu peux y arriver
And you can get it if you try
Et tu peux y arriver si tu essaies
Strolling with the one girl
Se promener avec une fille
Sighing sigh after sigh
Soupirant soupir après soupir
It′s nice work if you can get it
C'est du bon boulot si tu peux y arriver
And you can get it if you try
Et tu peux y arriver si tu essaies
Just imagine someone
Imagine juste quelqu'un
Waiting at the cottage door
T'attendant à la porte du chalet
Where two hearts become one
Où deux cœurs n'en font plus qu'un
Who could ask for anything more?
Qui pourrait demander plus ?
Loving one who loves you
Aimer quelqu'un qui t'aime
And then taking that vow
Et ensuite faire ce vœu
It's nice work if you can get it
C'est du bon boulot si tu peux y arriver
And if you get it, won't you tell me how?
Et si tu y arrives, ne veux-tu pas me dire comment ?
Holding hands at midnight
Se tenir par la main à minuit
′Neath a starry sky
Sous un ciel étoilé
It′s nice work if you can get it
C'est du bon boulot si tu peux y arriver
And you can get it if you try
Et tu peux y arriver si tu essaies
Strolling with the one girl
Se promener avec une fille
Sighing sigh after sigh
Soupirant soupir après soupir
Ooh, nice work if you can get it
Oh, c'est du bon boulot si tu peux y arriver
And you can get it if you try
Et tu peux y arriver si tu essaies
Just imagine someone
Imagine juste quelqu'un
Waiting at the cottage door
T'attendant à la porte du chalet
Where two hearts become one
Où deux cœurs n'en font plus qu'un
Who could ask for anything more?
Qui pourrait demander plus ?
Loving one who loves you
Aimer quelqu'un qui t'aime
And then taking that vow
Et ensuite faire ce vœu
It's nice work if you can get it
C'est du bon boulot si tu peux y arriver
And you can get it, won′t you tell me how?
Et tu peux y arriver, ne veux-tu pas me dire comment ?
