Lyrics and translation Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band - Manhattan




Manhattan
Manhattan
Shakey Davey's got a twelve gauge in his hand
Davey, le tremblant, a un fusil de calibre 12 dans la main
It's sawed off to the limit
Il est scié au maximum
He's got a vague plan
Il a un vague plan
There's this liquor store on Madison
Il y a ce magasin d'alcool sur Madison
There's another one down on Washington square
Il y en a un autre sur Washington Square
He's pretty sure no one's ever seen him
Il est presque sûr que personne ne l'a jamais vu
Down around there
Par
The first one's birdshot the next four are double aught buck
Le premier est chargé de chevrotine, les quatre suivants de cartouches de calibre 12
The last one's a slug just for good luck
Le dernier est une balle pour la bonne fortune
He's got his works in his pocket
Il a ses outils dans sa poche
He wants to score as soon as he's done
Il veut marquer dès qu'il aura fini
He can't wait to get straight to get long gone
Il a hâte d'aller droit au but et de disparaître
He puts on his long coat scribbles off a short note
Il enfile son long manteau, griffonne une courte note
Sits himself down and waits for the sun to go down
S'assoit et attend que le soleil se couche
It's right around midnight and there's still too damn many people on this street
Il est presque minuit et il y a encore trop de monde dans cette rue
He's walked all the way from Battery Park he's got sweaty hands and burnin' feet
Il a marché depuis Battery Park, il a les mains moites et les pieds brûlants
He's desperate for a fix
Il est désespéré de se fixer
His body's screamin' "Get me high"
Son corps crie "Fais-moi planer"
He bursts through the door and lets one fly
Il s'élance par la porte et tire
Sunrise in the park and Davey's cold as stone
Le soleil se lève dans le parc et Davey est froid comme la pierre
He got some bad merchandise and he was all alone
Il a eu de la mauvaise marchandise et il était tout seul
Two more unsolved mysteries a iot of paper pushed around
Deux autres mystères non résolus, beaucoup de papiers ont été déplacés
Most folks are just wakin' up in this great big town
La plupart des gens se réveillent dans cette grande ville
