Lyrics and translation James Brown & His Famous Flames - There Was a Time (Live 1967)




There Was a Time (Live 1967)
Il y a eu un temps (Live 1967)
There was a day, there was a time
Il y a eu un jour, il y a eu un moment
When I used to play
Quand j'avais l'habitude de jouer
There was a time when I used to play
Il y a eu un moment j'avais l'habitude de jouer
But take me now, baby, don't worry about later
Mais prends-moi maintenant, bébé, ne t'inquiète pas pour plus tard
Teach the dance I used to do
Apprends-moi la danse que j'avais l'habitude de faire
They call it the Mashed Potato
Ils l'appellent la Mashed Potato
There was a day, now dig this
Il y a eu un jour, creuse ça
There was a day, they call it the Jerk
Il y a eu un jour, ils l'appellent le Jerk
Everybody relax and watch me work
Tout le monde se détend et me regarde travailler
Ooohhh
Ooohhh
In my hometown where I used to stay
Dans ma ville natale j'avais l'habitude de rester
The name of the place, hah, is Augusta, GA
Le nom de l'endroit, hah, est Augusta, GA
Down there we have a good time
Là-bas, on s'amuse bien
We don't talk, hah
On ne parle pas, hah
We all get together in time, for rhythm with you
On se retrouve tous ensemble à temps, pour le rythme avec toi
So come and walk, hoo
Alors viens marcher, hoo
Lookey here, dig this.
Regarde ça, creuse ça.
There was a day that I used to do
Il y a eu un jour j'avais l'habitude de faire
The name of the dance
Le nom de la danse
They call it Boogaloo
Ils l'appellent Boogaloo
I may not do the dance as well as you, hah.
Je ne fais peut-être pas la danse aussi bien que toi, hah.
But baby, you can bet your bottom dollar
Mais bébé, tu peux parier ton dernier sou
That you never hear me holler
Que tu ne m'entendras jamais crier
I do the best that I can do, ooh
Je fais de mon mieux, ooh
There was a time, sometimes I dance, lookey here
Il y a eu un moment, parfois je danse, regarde ça
Sometimes I dance, sometimes I clown
Parfois je danse, parfois je fais le clown
But you can bet you haven't seen nothing yet
Mais tu peux parier que tu n'as encore rien vu
Until you see me do the James Brown, hoo
Jusqu'à ce que tu me voies faire le James Brown, hoo
