Lyrics and translation Jimmy Jones - Good Timin'

Good Timin'

Oh, you need timin'
A-ticka, ticka, ticka, good timin'
A-tocka, tocka, tocka, tocka
Timin' is the thing
It's true
Good timin' brought me to you
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)

If little, little David hadn't grabbed that stone
Lyin' there on the ground
Big Goliath might've stomped on him
Instead of the other way 'round

But he had timin'
A-ticka, ticka, ticka, good timin'
A-tocka, tocka, tocka, tocka
Timin' is the thing
It's true
Good timin' brought me to you
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)

Who in the World would have ever known
What Columbus could do
If Queen Isabella hadn't hocked her jewels
In 1492?

But she had timin'
A-ticka, ticka, ticka, good timin'
A-tocka, tocka, tocka, tocka
Timin' is the thing
It's true
Good timin' brought me to you
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)

What would have happened if you and I
Hadn't just happened to meet?
We might have spent the rest of our lives
Walkin' down Misery Street

But we had timin'
A-ticka, ticka, ticka, good timin'
A-tocka, tocka, tocka, tocka
Timin' is the thing
It's true
Good timin' brought me to you

Yeah, we had timin'
Whoa, whoa, whoa, good timin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Timin' is the thing
It's true
Good timin' brought me to you

Yeah, we had timin'
Whoa, whoa, whoa, good timin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Timin' is the thing

Bon moment

Oh, tu as besoin de timing
Tic-tac, tic-tac, tic-tac, bon moment
Toc-toc, toc-toc, toc-toc
Le timing est important
C’est vrai
Le bon moment m’a amené vers toi
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)

Si le petit, le petit David n’avait pas pris cette pierre
Allongée là sur le sol
Le grand Goliath aurait peut-être piétiné dessus
Au lieu de l’autre manière

Mais il avait le timing
Tic-tac, tic-tac, tic-tac, bon moment
Toc-toc, toc-toc, toc-toc
Le timing est important
C’est vrai
Le bon moment m’a amené vers toi
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)

Qui au monde aurait jamais pu deviner
Ce que Colomb pourrait faire
Si la Reine Isabelle n’avait pas mis ses bijoux en gage
En 1492?

Mais elle avait le timing
Tic-tac, tic-tac, tic-tac, bon moment
Toc-toc, toc-toc, toc-toc
Le timing est important
C’est vrai
Le bon moment m’a amené vers toi
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)

Que se serait-il passé si toi et moi
N’avions pas eu le hasard de nous rencontrer?
On aurait peut-être passé le reste de nos vies
Marchant sur la rue de la Misère

Mais on avait le timing
Tic-tac, tic-tac, tic-tac, bon moment
Toc-toc, toc-toc, toc-toc
Le timing est important
C’est vrai
Le bon moment m’a amené vers toi

Ouais, on avait le timing
Whoa, whoa, whoa, bon moment
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Le timing est important
C’est vrai
Le bon moment m’a amené vers toi

Ouais, on avait le timing
Whoa, whoa, whoa, bon moment
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Le timing est important
