Lyrics and translation Mickey Newbury - You're My Lady Now
Oh,
the
lights
of
the
city,
Oh,
les
lumières
de
la
ville,
Sparkle
like
diamonds.
Brillent
comme
des
diamants.
They
dance
like
a
harlot,
Elles
dansent
comme
une
prostituée,
Into
the
dawn.
Jusqu'à
l'aube.
She
was
an
angel
of
mercy,
Elle
était
un
ange
de
miséricorde,
A
vision
of
heaven.
Une
vision
du
paradis.
On
earth
in
this
garden,
Sur
terre,
dans
ce
jardin,
Of
concrete
and
stone.
De
béton
et
de
pierre.
She
stands
on
the
corner,
Elle
se
tient
au
coin
de
la
rue,
Spins
on
her
toes.
Tourne
sur
ses
pointes.
Tight
skin
and
satin,
Peau
serrée
et
satin,
A
shimmering
rose.
Une
rose
chatoyante.
Sells
her
young
body,
Vend
son
jeune
corps,
To
feed
his
mad
soul.
Pour
nourrir
son
âme
folle.
He
was
born
with,
Il
est
né
avec,
A
silver
spoon
in
his
nose.
Une
cuillère
d'argent
dans
le
nez.
He
said,
"You're
my
lady
now.
Il
dit
: "Tu
es
maintenant
ma
dame.
Girl,
you're
my
lady
now.
Fille,
tu
es
maintenant
ma
dame.
Lady,
lay
down.
Dame,
couche-toi.
Yes,
you're
my
lady
now.
Oui,
tu
es
maintenant
ma
dame.
Yes,
you're
my
lady
now.
Oui,
tu
es
maintenant
ma
dame.
Girl,
you're
my
lady
now.
Fille,
tu
es
maintenant
ma
dame.
You're
so
lovely,
Tu
es
si
belle,
In
your
satin
gown."
Dans
ta
robe
de
satin."
He
sits
on
a
corner,
Il
est
assis
au
coin
de
la
rue,
In
shoes
made
of
snakeskin.
Dans
des
chaussures
en
peau
de
serpent.
Taylor-made
suit,
Costume
sur
mesure,
And
a
custom-built
Rolls.
Et
une
Rolls
Royce
personnalisée.
Oh,
his
eyes
are
like
midnight,
Oh,
ses
yeux
sont
comme
la
nuit,
And
his
teeth
are
like
daggers.
Et
ses
dents
sont
comme
des
poignards.
He
speaks
from
the
bottomless,
Il
parle
des
profondeurs
sans
fond,
Depths
of
his
soul,
De
son
âme,
"Oh,
you're
my
lady
now.
"Oh,
tu
es
maintenant
ma
dame.
[Humming.]
[Humming.]
Yes,
you're
my
lady
now.
Oui,
tu
es
maintenant
ma
dame.
Oh,
you
are
so
lovely,
Oh,
tu
es
si
belle,
In
your
satin
gown."
Dans
ta
robe
de
satin."
Yes,
the
lights
of
the
city,
Oui,
les
lumières
de
la
ville,
Sparkle
like
diamonds.
Brillent
comme
des
diamants.
Down
from
the
country
Du
pays,
And
into
the
town.
Et
dans
la
ville.
She
was
so
lovely,
Elle
était
si
belle,
And
so
sure
to
be
climbin'
Et
si
sûre
d'escalader
A
ladder
that
would
take
her,
Une
échelle
qui
la
conduirait,
Right
into
the
ground.
Tout
droit
dans
le
sol.
