Lyrics and translation Crosby, Stills & Nash - He Played Real Good for Free (Live in Houston, Texas, 1977)




He Played Real Good for Free (Live in Houston, Texas, 1977)
Il jouait vraiment bien gratuitement (En direct de Houston, Texas, 1977)
I slept last night in a good hotel
J'ai dormi hier soir dans un bon hôtel
I went shopping today for jewels
J'ai fait du shopping aujourd'hui pour des bijoux
The wind rushed around the dirty town
Le vent a balayé la ville sale
And the children let out from their schools
Et les enfants sont sortis de leurs écoles
I was standing on a noisy corner
J'étais debout à un coin de rue bruyant
I was waitin′ for the walking green
J'attendais le feu vert pour traverser
Across the street he stood
De l'autre côté de la rue, il était là
And he played real good
Et il jouait vraiment bien
He was playin' real good, for free
Il jouait vraiment bien, gratuitement
Me, I play for fortune
Moi, je joue pour la fortune
And those velvet curtain calls
Et ces rappels de rideau de velours
I got a black limousine and about thirty-seven criminals
J'ai une limousine noire et une trentaine de criminels
Escorting me to these halls
Qui m'escortent dans ces salles
And I′ll play if you have some money
Et je jouerai si tu as de l'argent
Or if you're a friend to me
Ou si tu es un ami pour moi
But that one-man band by the quick lunch stand
Mais ce groupe d'un seul homme près du stand de restauration rapide
He was just playin' real good, for free
Il jouait vraiment bien, gratuitement
Nobody, I say nobody, nobody stopped to hear him
Personne, je dis personne, personne ne s'est arrêté pour l'écouter
Though he played so sweet and high
Bien qu'il ait joué si doux et haut
They knew, they had never seen him on their TV screen
Ils savaient, ils ne l'avaient jamais vu sur leur écran de télévision
So they passed his music by
Alors ils ont ignoré sa musique
Me, I meant to go over, ask for a song
Moi, j'avais l'intention d'aller le voir, lui demander une chanson
Maybe put on a harmony
Peut-être ajouter une harmonie
I heard his refrain as the signal changed
J'ai entendu son refrain lorsque le signal a changé
He was still playin′ real good, for free
Il jouait toujours vraiment bien, gratuitement
