George Formby - I Couldn't Let the Stable Down

Lyrics and translation George Formby - I Couldn't Let the Stable Down




I Couldn't Let the Stable Down
Je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
I'm faithful to my comrades, my motto's loyalty
Je suis fidèle à mes camarades, ma devise est la loyauté
I run straight with my stable mates and they run straight with me
Je suis honnête avec mes compagnons d'écurie et ils sont honnêtes avec moi
Come on George you'll hear them roar, ten to one I'll start for sure
Allez George, tu les entendras rugir, dix contre un, je vais partir à coup sûr
I'll pass the post by half past four, I couldn't let the stable down
Je passerai le poteau à quatre heures et demie, je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
To race in France I'll begin, quest que ce tres bon chin chin
Pour courir en France, je vais commencer, quest que ce tres bon chin chin
I learnt that off a sardine tin, I couldn't let the stable down
J'ai appris ça sur une boîte de sardines, je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
We've got pride put on side, ride the high horse too
Nous avons de la fierté mise de côté, chevauche le grand cheval aussi
If we're late at the starting gate the horse will pull us through
Si nous sommes en retard à la porte de départ, le cheval nous tirera à travers
Cast off clothes I used to sell, in riding breeches I look swell
J'ai jeté les vêtements que j'avais l'habitude de vendre, dans un pantalon d'équitation, j'ai l'air bien
A girl said "cast off those as well," I couldn't let the stable down
Une fille a dit "jette aussi ceux-là", je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
Near the town hall yesterday with my horse I couldn't stay
Près de l'hôtel de ville hier, avec mon cheval, je n'ai pas pu rester
They said "the mayor might come that way"
Ils ont dit "le maire pourrait passer par là"
And I couldn't let the stable down
Et je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
"Your stomach's wrong," said Doctor Drew, "diet"
"Votre estomac est mauvais", a dit le docteur Drew, "régime"
I said "if I do, My favourite colours are pink and blue
J'ai dit "si je le fais, mes couleurs préférées sont le rose et le bleu
I couldn't let the stable down
Je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
We've got pride put on side, ride the high horse too
Nous avons de la fierté mise de côté, chevauche le grand cheval aussi
If we're late at the starting gate the horse will pull us through
Si nous sommes en retard à la porte de départ, le cheval nous tirera à travers
In our nudist camp by gosh, what I wear makes me look posh
Dans notre camp naturiste, par Dieu, ce que je porte me donne un air chic
A nice transparent mackintosh. I couldn't let the stable down
Un beau mackintosh transparent. Je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
With Violet I went in a wood, the wood violets were all in bud
Avec Violette, je suis allé dans un bois, les violettes étaient toutes en bouton
When I found out that Violet would, I couldn't let the stable down
Quand j'ai découvert que Violette le ferait, je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
I kmow a girl when nights are fine,
Je connais une fille quand les nuits sont belles,
Walked in her sleep she looked divine
Elle a marché dans son sommeil, elle avait l'air divine
Tonight I'm going to walk in mine, I couldn't let the stable down
Ce soir, je vais marcher dans le mien, je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
We've got pride put on side, ride the high horse too
Nous avons de la fierté mise de côté, chevauche le grand cheval aussi
If we're late at the starting gate the horse will pull us through
Si nous sommes en retard à la porte de départ, le cheval nous tirera à travers
A dame said "for a sport that's
Une dame a dit "pour un sport qui est
Real, shoot at my country seat at Deal"
Réel, tire à ma résidence de campagne à Deal"
I hit it three times off the reel, I couldn't let the stable down.
Je l'ai touché trois fois sur la bobine, je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber.
(Alternative couplet)
(Couplet alternatif)
At hunt the button with Miss Moore,
À chasser le bouton avec Mlle Moore,
I played for hours and what is more
J'ai joué pendant des heures et qui plus est
I found what I was hunting for, I couldn't let the stable down
J'ai trouvé ce que je cherchais, je ne pouvais pas laisser l'écurie tomber
