Lyrics and translation Roy Orbison - Chicken Hearted (Semi Spoken Vocal)
My
girlfriend
slipped
and
fell
Ma
petite
amie
a
glissé
et
est
tombée
Now
she's
hanging
from
a
cliff
Maintenant
elle
est
suspendue
à
une
falaise
I
can't
come
to
her
rescue
Je
ne
peux
pas
aller
à
son
secours
But
these
flowers
I
must
sniff
Mais
je
dois
humer
ces
fleurs
You
see
I'd
really
like
to
save
her
Tu
vois,
j'aimerais
vraiment
la
sauver
But
I
aint
got
the
nerve
Mais
je
n'ai
pas
le
courage
I'm
chicken
hearted
J'ai
le
cœur
d'un
poulet
I'm
chicken
hearted
J'ai
le
cœur
d'un
poulet
I'm
tryin'
to
kiss
my
girl
J'essaie
d'embrasser
ma
fille
And
it
makes
me
want
to
faint
Et
ça
me
donne
envie
de
m'évanouir
I'm
scared
of
my
own
shadow
J'ai
peur
de
ma
propre
ombre
And
afraid
of
what
I
ain't
Et
peur
de
ce
que
je
ne
suis
pas
I've
no
inspiration
Je
n'ai
aucune
inspiration
I'm
kinda
yellow...
Je
suis
un
peu
jaune...
I'm
chicken
hearted,
J'ai
le
cœur
d'un
poulet,
I'm
chicken
hearted
J'ai
le
cœur
d'un
poulet
Mama's
in
the
workshop
Maman
est
à
l'atelier
Daddy's
in
the
jail
Papa
est
en
prison
I
seem
to
be
afraid
J'ai
l'air
d'avoir
peur
To
go
to
work
and
make
their
bail
D'aller
travailler
et
de
payer
leur
caution
I
guess
my
folks
will
have
Je
suppose
que
mes
parents
auront
I'm
chicken
hearted,
J'ai
le
cœur
d'un
poulet,
I'm
chicken
hearted
J'ai
le
cœur
d'un
poulet
