Mexican Joe - Jim Reevestranslation in French




Mexican Joe
Mexican Joe
South of the border, hey, I know a lad
Au sud de la frontière, tu sais, j'y connais un jeune homme
He's got more fun than anybody's had
Il a plus de plaisir que n'importe qui d'autre
Don't got no worry, don't got no dough
Il n'a aucun souci, il n'a pas un sou
Everybody's wondering 'bout Mexican Joe
Tout le monde se demande ce qu'il devient, ce Mexican Joe
In old Mexico, they call him the Rhumba King
Dans le vieux Mexique, on l'appelle le roi du Rhumba
Leads all the women around on a string
Il fait tourner toutes les femmes autour de son doigt
When they go out, they get a million thrills
Quand elles sortent, elles vivent des millions de sensations fortes
But the lovely Señoritas wind up with the bills
Mais les charmantes Señoritas se retrouvent avec les factures à payer
Dancin', romancin'
Il danse, il charme
Always on the go
Toujours en mouvement
Sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe
Le soleil brille sur Mexican Joe
He makes the night spots all along the bay
Il anime les boîtes de nuit le long de la baie
People want to see him when he comes their way
Les gens veulent le voir quand il arrive
He spreads so much joy everywhere he goes
Il répand tant de joie partout il va
Everyone shouts, "Viva la Mexican Joe"
Tout le monde crie : "Viva la Mexican Joe" !
He likes to gamble, at poker he's an ace
Il aime jouer, au poker, c'est un as
He's always lucky with the cards that got a face
Il a toujours de la chance avec les cartes qui ont un visage
At winning the money, he is sure a whiz
Il est vraiment un pro pour gagner de l'argent
But when they win they don't collect
Mais quand ils gagnent, ils ne réclament pas
'Cause they don't know where he is
Parce qu'ils ne savent pas il est
Dancin', romancin'
Il danse, il charme
Always on the go
Toujours en mouvement
Sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe
Le soleil brille sur Mexican Joe
He don't no income tax 'cause he don't got no dough
Il ne paie pas d'impôts sur le revenu parce qu'il n'a pas un sou
Still he gets along just fine, how we'll never know
Il arrive quand même à s'en sortir, on ne sait jamais comment
He's got everything he wants, a girl, a drink, a song
Il a tout ce qu'il veut, une fille, un verre, une chanson
If we use his formula, we surely can't go wrong
Si on suit sa formule, on ne peut pas se tromper
His favorite playground is anywhere there's girls
Son terrain de jeu préféré, c'est partout il y a des filles
He's got that somethin' that sets their hearts a-whirl
Il a ce petit quelque chose qui fait tourner les têtes
It couldn't be his money 'cause he ain't got a peso
Ce ne peut pas être son argent parce qu'il n'a pas un peso
But when he wants a kiss all he's got to do is say so
Mais quand il veut un baiser, il n'a qu'à le demander
Dancin', romancin'
Il danse, il charme
Always on the go
Toujours en mouvement
Sun shinin' down on Mexican Joe
Le soleil brille sur Mexican Joe
