She
was
young
and
she
was
pretty
Tu
étais
jeune
et
jolie
And
she
met
him
in
the
city
Et
tu
m'as
rencontré
en
ville
And
somehow
he
fit
right
into
her
plan
Et
d'une
manière
ou
d'une
autre,
j'ai
parfaitement
correspondu
à
ton
plan
She
knew
she
hit
it
lucky
Tu
savais
que
tu
avais
touché
le
jackpot
He
owned
half
of
Kentucky
and
best
of
all,
Je
possédais
la
moitié
du
Kentucky
et,
cerise
sur
le
gâteau,
He
was
a
sixty
year
old
man.
J'étais
un
homme
de
soixante
ans.
She
let
him
think
he'd
caught
her
Tu
m'as
fait
croire
que
tu
m'avais
choisi
She
led
him
to
the
alter
Tu
m'as
conduit
à
l'autel
Totin'
seven
carats
on
her
hand
Avec
sept
carats
à
ton
doigt
All
dressed
up
in
satin
Toute
habillée
de
satin
Aw'
the
good
Lord
wasted
that
one
Oh,
le
bon
Dieu
a
gaspillé
ce
jour-là
But
she
knew
she'd
be
the
winner
in
the
end.
Mais
tu
savais
que
tu
serais
la
gagnante
à
la
fin.
'Cause
she
only
meant
to
use
him
Parce
que
tu
voulais
juste
m'utiliser
She
only
meant
to
use
him
Tu
voulais
juste
m'utiliser
And
she
didn't
care
if
what
she
did
was
wrong
Et
tu
ne
te
souciais
pas
que
ce
que
tu
faisais
soit
mal
She
only
meant
to
use
him
Tu
voulais
juste
m'utiliser
And
she
knew
what
she
was
doing
Et
tu
savais
ce
que
tu
faisais
In
a
few
years
she'd
be
rich
and
he'd
be
gone.
Dans
quelques
années,
tu
serais
riche
et
je
serais
parti.

In
their
million
dollar
palace
Dans
notre
palais
d'un
million
de
dollars
The
man
grew
old
and
jealous
Je
suis
devenu
vieux
et
jaloux
And
he
never
let
her
leave
the
house
alone
Et
je
ne
te
laissais
jamais
sortir
seule
She
was
in
her
prime
and
holding
Tu
étais
à
ton
apogée
et
tu
tenais
bon
But
she
knew
that
he
was
old
Mais
tu
savais
que
j'étais
vieux
And
chances
were
he
wouldn't
be
around
that
long.
Et
il
y
avait
de
fortes
chances
que
je
ne
sois
pas
là
longtemps.
As
the
days
and
nights
grew
longer
Alors
que
les
jours
et
les
nuits
s'allongeaient
The
greed
in
her
grewstronger
La
cupidité
en
toi
s'est
renforcée
And
it
even
crossed
her
mind
to
take
his
life
Et
tu
as
même
pensé
à
me
supprimer
But
he
found
out
he'd
been
taken
Mais
j'ai
découvert
que
j'avais
été
trompé
And
his
pride
was
badly
shakened
Et
ma
fierté
a
été
profondément
ébranlée
And
he
knew
she
never
meant
to
be
a
wife.
Et
j'ai
su
que
tu
n'avais
jamais
voulu
être
une
épouse.
She
only
meant
to
use
him
Tu
voulais
juste
m'utiliser
She
only
meant
to
use
him
Tu
voulais
juste
m'utiliser
But
she
knew
what
she
wanted
in
the
end
Mais
tu
savais
ce
que
tu
voulais
à
la
fin
She
only
meant
to
use
him.
Tu
voulais
juste
m'utiliser.
But
he
knew
what
she
was
doing
Mais
j'ai
su
ce
que
tu
faisais
And
he
swore
she'd
never
have
a
dime
to
spend.
Et
j'ai
juré
que
tu
n'aurais
jamais
un
sou
à
dépenser.
Tormented
by
frustration
Tourmentée
par
la
frustration
She
watched
her
beauty
wasting
Tu
as
regardé
ta
beauté
se
faner
As
the
lines
upon
her
face
began
to
show
Alors
que
les
rides
sur
ton
visage
commençaient
à
apparaître
She
turned
to
heavy
drinkin'
Tu
t'es
tournée
vers
l'alcool
'Cause
her
ship
was
slowly
sinking
Parce
que
ton
navire
coulait
lentement
And
the
bottle
was
the
only
place
to
go.
Et
la
bouteille
était
le
seul
endroit
où
aller.
Now
20
odd
years
later
Maintenant,
20
ans
plus
tard
The
headlines
in
the
paper
Les
gros
titres
du
journal
Said
they
laid
her
soul
to
rest
at
53
Disaient
qu'on
avait
mis
ton
âme
au
repos
à
53
ans
And
when
they
wheeled
him
to
her
coffin
Et
quand
ils
m'ont
amené
à
ton
cercueil
He
took
her
diamond
off
J'ai
enlevé
ton
diamant
And
he
just
smiled
and
finally
died
at
93.
Et
j'ai
juste
souri
et
je
suis
enfin
mort
à
93
ans.
She
only
meant
to
use
him
Tu
voulais
juste
m'utiliser
Lord
knows
she
meant
to
use
him
Dieu
sait
que
tu
voulais
m'utiliser
But
she
died
with
seven
carats
on
her
hand
Mais
tu
es
morte
avec
sept
carats
à
ton
doigt
All
dressed
in
satin
Toute
habillée
de
satin
Aw'
the
good
Lord
wasted
that
one
Oh,
le
bon
Dieu
a
gaspillé
ce
jour-là
But
her
husband
died
a
satisfied
old
man.
Mais
ton
mari
est
mort
un
vieux
satisfait.
She
