Lyrics and translation Donald Fagen - Out of the Ghetto
You've
come
a
long
way
baby,
Tu
as
fait
beaucoup
de
chemin,
ma
chérie,
From
wealth
and
food
stamp
lines,
De
la
richesse
et
des
files
d'attente
pour
les
bons
alimentaires,
You're
moving
on
up,
Tu
es
en
train
de
monter,
And
leaving
poverty
behind.
Et
tu
laisses
la
pauvreté
derrière
toi.
You've
had
a
good
education,
Tu
as
eu
une
bonne
éducation,
And
seen
the
best
of
the
schools,
Et
vu
le
meilleur
des
écoles,
But
when
you
take
a
drink,
Mais
quand
tu
bois
un
coup,
The
ghetto
comes
out
of
you.
Le
ghetto
ressort
de
toi.
I
took
you
out
of
the
ghetto,
Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto,
(I
took
you
out
of
the
ghetto)
(Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto)
I
took
you
out
of
the
ghetto,
Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto,
(I
took
you
out
of
the
ghetto)
(Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto)
I
took
you
out
of
the
ghetto,
Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto,
(I
took
you
out
of
the
ghetto)
(Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto)
But
I
could
not
get
that
ghetto
out
of
you.
Mais
je
n'ai
pas
pu
sortir
ce
ghetto
de
toi.
You're
a
foxy
lady,
Tu
es
une
femme
renard,
Your
mamma
had
a
beautiful
child,
Ta
maman
a
eu
une
belle
enfant,
You're
built
like
a
brick
house,
Tu
es
bâtie
comme
une
maison
en
briques,
And
that's
no
lie.
Et
ce
n'est
pas
un
mensonge.
When
we
go
to
the
disco,
Quand
on
va
à
la
discothèque,
You
drive
the
fellas
wild,
Tu
rends
les
mecs
fous,
When
you
shake
your
booty,
Quand
tu
secoues
ton
booty,
Ghetto
style.
Style
ghetto.
I
took
you
out
of
the
ghetto,
Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto,
(I
took
you
out
of
the
ghetto)
(Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto)

took
you

t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto)
I
took
you

Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto,
(I

(Je
t'ai
sorti
du
ghetto)
But
I
could

ghetto
out
of
you.
Mais
je
n'ai
pas
pu
sortir
ce
ghetto
de
toi.
You're
a
hunk
of
raw
sugar,
Tu
es
un
morceau
de
sucre
brut,
Got
some
real
sweet
hips,
Tu
as
des
hanches
vraiment
douces,
Your
love,
your
love,
your
love,
Ton
amour,
ton
amour,
ton
amour,
Is
like
a
honey
drip.
C'est
comme
un
filet
de
miel.
Your
roots
are
in
the
mean
streets,
Tes
racines
sont
dans
les
rues
dures,
That'll
never
change,
Cela
ne
changera
jamais,
Ghetto
mamma,
Maman
ghetto,
Stay
the
same.
Reste
la
même.
