Bell Bottom George - George Formbytranslation in French




Bell Bottom George
Bell Bottom George
Now I can guess that some of you are wondering at my navy blues
Je peux deviner que certains d'entre vous se demandent pourquoi je porte cet uniforme bleu marine
Or how I came to be - oh a sailor on the sea
Ou comment je suis devenu un marin en mer
You may think that I′m too daft to
Tu pourrais penser que je suis trop stupide pour
Know what's forward and which is aft
Savoir ce qui est à l'avant et ce qui est à l'arrière
But when I′ve sung my song - Oh, you'll all agree you're wrong
Mais quand j'aurai chanté ma chanson, tu conviendras que tu te trompes
A happy-go-lucky A.B. on the land or the sea
Un marin joyeux et insouciant sur terre ou en mer
I know a few nautical games and my name′s Bell Bottom George
Je connais quelques jeux nautiques et mon nom est Bell Bottom George
A girl in each port may be true of the boys dressed in blue
Une fille dans chaque port, c'est peut-être vrai pour les garçons en bleu
A sailor I know has got three and it′s me, Bell Bottom George
Un marin que je connais en a trois, et c'est moi, Bell Bottom George
It's the same to me as we sail to Tripoli or we go back home to Dover
C'est pareil pour moi, que nous naviguions vers Tripoli ou que nous retournions à Douvres
I can go ashore and have one or two
Je peux aller à terre et prendre un verre ou deux
More till I′m feeling half-seas-over
Jusqu'à ce que je sois un peu ivre
Adventures I've had by the score, what a life, what a war
J'ai eu des aventures à la pelle, quelle vie, quelle guerre
If ever you get in a scrap I′m your chap, Bell Bottom George
Si jamais tu te retrouves dans une bagarre, je suis ton homme, Bell Bottom George
When others are up to their necks pulling ropes, scrubbing decks
Quand les autres sont jusqu'au cou à tirer sur les cordes, à frotter les ponts
Who slips on the soap and goes - whiz - down on his Bell Bottom George
Qui glisse sur le savon et va - whiz - sur son Bell Bottom George
The Admiral's not a bad guy, we get on, he and I
L'amiral n'est pas un mauvais garçon, on s'entend bien, lui et moi
He speaks when we meet on the stair,
Il me parle quand on se croise dans l'escalier,
"Gangway there Bell Bottom George"
"Faites attention, Bell Bottom George"
And the chief is grand so I always lend a hand
Et le chef est super, alors j'aide toujours
With a grin and a smart "Aye, Aye Sir"
Avec un sourire et un "Oui, oui, monsieur" bien placé
And it′s fun by 'gum' when I′ve had a tot of rum
Et c'est vraiment amusant quand j'ai bu un peu de rhum
I′m the champion main brace splicer
Je suis le champion de l'épissure de la grande brasse
I've sailed the Dead Sea and the Med, and the Black and the Red
J'ai navigué sur la Mer Morte et la Méditerranée, et sur la Noire et la Rouge
There′s only the suck it and see left for me Bell Bottom George
Il ne me reste plus qu'à essayer et voir, Bell Bottom George
