Lyrics and translation George Jones - We Didn't See a Thing

We Didn't See a Thing

Well I swear, I didn't see you with your wife's best girlfriend
Drinkin' beer and a dancin' to that western swing
And I didn't see you kiss her and leave that barroom with her
No I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing.

George, I know I didn't hear you
Tell that blound that you weren't married
I know I didn't see you hidin' your weddin' ring, neither did I
And I know I couldn't have heard you call your wife
And tell her that you were working
No, I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing.

We've got to stick together to keep our stories straight
No, don't forget Ray, I was down in Atlanta, sure you were
And I was workin' late
Yeah, you know, it's always good to see you George
It's good to see you too
But I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing.

--- Instrumental ---

Hey Ray, by the way, did you leave that hundred bucks you owe me
I don't know what you're talkin' about George
Well, I'm sure you recall our bet on last night's football game
No, I don't, but you know, if I had seen you
I certainly would've paid ya.
But I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing.

We've got to stick together to keep our stories straight
Don't forget I was down in Atlanta
And don't you forget I was working late.
But I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing.

I didn't see you, and I didn't see you,
And we didn't see a thing...

On n'a rien vu

Je te jure, je ne t'ai pas vu avec la meilleure amie de ta femme
Boire de la bière et danser sur ce western swing
Et je ne t'ai pas vu l'embrasser et quitter ce bar avec elle
Non, je ne t'ai pas vu, et je ne t'ai pas vu, et on n'a rien vu.

George, je sais que je ne t'ai pas entendu
Dire à cette blonde que tu n'étais pas marié
Je sais que je ne t'ai pas vu cacher ton alliance, moi non plus
Et je sais que je n'ai pas pu t'entendre appeler ta femme
Et lui dire que tu travaillais
Non, je ne t'ai pas vu, et je ne t'ai pas vu, et on n'a rien vu.

On doit rester soudés pour garder nos histoires cohérentes
Non, n'oublie pas Ray, j'étais à Atlanta, tu étais bien là
Et je travaillais tard
Ouais, tu sais, c'est toujours bon de te voir George
C'est bon de te voir aussi
Mais je ne t'ai pas vu, et je ne t'ai pas vu, et on n'a rien vu.

--- Instrumental ---

Hé Ray, au fait, as-tu laissé les cent dollars que tu me dois
Je ne sais pas de quoi tu parles George
Eh bien, je suis sûr que tu te souviens de notre pari sur le match de football d'hier soir
Non, je ne me souviens pas, mais tu sais, si je t'avais vu
Je te les aurais certainement payé.
Mais je ne t'ai pas vu, et je ne t'ai pas vu, et on n'a rien vu.

On doit rester soudés pour garder nos histoires cohérentes
N'oublie pas que j'étais à Atlanta
Et n'oublie pas que je travaillais tard.
Mais je ne t'ai pas vu, et je ne t'ai pas vu, et on n'a rien vu.

Je ne t'ai pas vu, et je ne t'ai pas vu,
Et on n'a rien vu...
