Lyrics and translation Howlin' Wolf - Killing Floor (Original)

Killing Floor (Original)

I shoulda quit you, long time ago

J'aurais dû te quitter il y a longtemps

I shoulda quit you, baby, long time ago

J'aurais dû te quitter, ma chérie, il y a longtemps

I shoulda quit you and went on to Mexico

J'aurais dû te quitter et aller au Mexique

If I had′a followed, my first mind

Si j'avais suivi, mon premier instinct

If I had'a followed, my first mind

Si j'avais suivi, mon premier instinct

I′da been gone, since my second time

J'aurais été parti, dès ma deuxième fois

I shoulda went on, when my friend come from Mexico at me

J'aurais dû partir, quand mon ami est venu du Mexique me chercher

I shoulda went on, when my friend come from Mexico at me

J'aurais dû partir, quand mon ami est venu du Mexique me chercher

But now I was foolin' with ya baby, I let ya put me on the killin' floor

Mais maintenant, je jouais avec toi ma chérie, je t'ai laissé me mettre sur le "Killing Floor"

God knows, I shoulda been gone

Dieu sait, j'aurais dû partir

God knows, I shoulda been gone

Dieu sait, j'aurais dû partir

And I wouldn′t have been here, down on the killin′ floor, yeah

Et je n'aurais pas été ici, sur le "Killing Floor", ouais
