Lyrics and translation James Brown - I'm Shook

I'm Shook

Je suis secoué

Ha, ha, ha, uh, ha

Here I stand waiting in vain

Me voici, debout, attendant en vain

My tears are falling down like rain

Mes larmes tombent comme la pluie

All my friends told me someday you'd make me cry

Tous mes amis m'ont dit que tu me ferais pleurer un jour

I said they were jealous and, and it was just a lie

Je leur ai dit qu'ils étaient jaloux et que c'était un mensonge

But here I stand, my broken heart

Mais me voici, mon cœur brisé

Why oh why did we ever have to part?

Pourquoi, oh pourquoi avons-nous dû nous séparer ?

Oh, my darling, won't you ease the pain

Oh, mon amour, ne veux-tu pas soulager ma douleur

By saying they were wrong

En disant qu'ils avaient tort

Don't let me stand here, you don't ease the pain

Ne me laisse pas rester ici, tu ne soulages pas la douleur

I got to stand here waiting in vain

Je dois rester ici, attendant en vain

Just stand here now, waiting in vain

Je dois rester ici, attendant en vain

I got to stand here now, waiting in vain

Je dois rester ici, attendant en vain

One, two, three

Un, deux, trois

I say, here I stand, waiting in vain, ha

Je te dis, me voici, debout, attendant en vain, ha

My tears are falling down like rain

Mes larmes tombent comme la pluie

People said that they don't know

Les gens disent qu'ils ne savent pas

I got to tell 'em, the thing I have, ha

Je dois leur dire, ce que j'ai, ha

I know for sure

Je le sais avec certitude

Don't let me, don't let me leave, ha

Ne me laisse pas, ne me laisse pas partir, ha

Don't let me leave

Ne me laisse pas partir

Don't be so cruel, ha

Ne sois pas si cruelle, ha

Don't think you'll find a fool

Ne pense pas que tu trouveras un imbécile

I'm all shook up

Je suis tout secoué

I'm all shook up

Je suis tout secoué

I'm all shook up

Je suis tout secoué

I'm all shook up

Je suis tout secoué

I said I'm shook

Je t'ai dit que j'étais secoué

I said I'm shook

Je t'ai dit que j'étais secoué

I said I'm shook

Je t'ai dit que j'étais secoué

I said I'm shook

Je t'ai dit que j'étais secoué

Here I stand, just waiting in vain

Me voici, debout, attendant en vain

My tears are falling down, down, down, like rain, ha

Mes larmes tombent, tombent, tombent, comme la pluie, ha

All of my friends, they told me someday

Tous mes amis, ils m'ont dit un jour

That you'd make me, you'd make me cry, ha

Que tu me ferais, tu me ferais pleurer, ha

I said they, they, they were jealous

J'ai dit qu'ils, ils, ils étaient jaloux

And it, and it was, and it was just a lie

Et que c'était, que c'était, que c'était juste un mensonge

Here I stand with a broken heart

Me voici, avec un cœur brisé
