James Brown - There Was A Time - Live (1968/ Dallas Memorial Auditiorium) - translation of the lyrics into French




There Was A Time - Live (1968/ Dallas Memorial Auditiorium)
Il y a eu un temps - Live (1968/ Dallas Memorial Auditiorium)
There was a day, there was a time
Il y a eu un jour, il y a eu un temps
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 temps 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 je faisais
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, maintenant 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
In my hometown where I used to stay
Dans ma ville natale j'avais l'habitude de rester
The name of the place is Augusta, GA
Le nom de l'endroit est Augusta, GA
Down there we have a good time
Là-bas, on s'amuse bien
We don't talk
On ne parle pas
We all get together in time, for rhythm with you
On se retrouve tous à temps, pour le rythme avec toi
So come and walk
Alors viens et marche
There was a day that I used to do
Il y a eu un jour je faisais
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
Je ne fais peut-être pas la danse aussi bien que toi
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
Je fais de mon mieux
There was a time, sometimes I dance
Il y a eu un temps, parfois je danse
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
Jusqu'à ce que tu me voies faire le James Brown
