I Didn't Know The Gun Was Loaded - The Andrews Sisterstranslation in French

I Didn't Know The Gun Was Loaded

Je ne savais pas que le fusil était chargé

Oh Miss Effie was her name

Oh, Miss Effie était son nom

Through the west she won her fame

Elle s'est fait connaître dans tout l'Ouest

Being handy with the gun

Etant habile avec son arme à feu

But she drove the men insane

Mais elle rendait les hommes fous

'Cause she'd whip out her pistol

Parce qu'elle sortait son pistolet

And shoot most any guy

Et tirait sur la plupart des hommes

And sing out this alibi

Et chantait cet alibi

I didn't know the gun was loaded

Je ne savais pas que le fusil était chargé

And I'm so sorry, my friend

Et je suis tellement désolée, mon ami

I didn't know the gun was loaded

Je ne savais pas que le fusil était chargé

And I'll never, never do it again

Et je ne le referai plus jamais

But one night she made a slip

Mais une nuit, elle a fait une erreur

Shot the sheriff in the hip

Elle a tiré sur le shérif à la hanche

So the law, it took a hand

Alors la loi a pris les choses en main

And made Effie take the stand

Et a fait témoigner Effie

And she pled, "Oh, your honor I'll know you'll turn me loose When you hear my one excuse"

Et elle a plaidé, "Oh, votre honneur, je sais que vous allez me laisser libre quand vous entendrez mon excuse"

I didn't know (she didn't know) the gun was loaded

Je ne savais pas (elle ne savait pas) que le fusil était chargé

And I'm so (and I'm so) sorry, my friend

Et je suis tellement (et je suis tellement) désolée, mon ami

I didn't know (she didn't know) the gun was loaded

Je ne savais pas (elle ne savait pas) que le fusil était chargé

And I'll never, never do it again

Et je ne le referai plus jamais

I didn't know (she didn't know) the gun was loaded (that the gun was loaded)

Je ne savais pas (elle ne savait pas) que le fusil était chargé (que le fusil était chargé)

But regarding the gun that I toted

Mais en ce qui concerne le fusil que j'ai porté

All I did was hold it high

Tout ce que j'ai fait était de le tenir haut

And go (ping)

Et de faire (ping)

I'll never, never do it again

Je ne le referai plus jamais

Yes, the jury all agreed

Oui, le jury était tous d'accord

That Miss Effie should be freed

Que Miss Effie devait être libérée

But the sheriff's jealous wife was indignant (yes, indeed)

Mais la femme jalouse du shérif était indignée (oui, en effet)

So she borrowed a pistol

Alors elle a emprunté un pistolet

And shot this village belle

Et a tiré sur cette belle villageoise

And sang as Miss Effie fell

Et a chanté alors que Miss Effie tombait

I didn't know the gun was loaded

Je ne savais pas que le fusil était chargé

And I'm so (and I'm so) sorry, my friend

Et je suis tellement (et je suis tellement) désolée, mon ami

I didn't know (she didn't know) the gun was loaded

Je ne savais pas (elle ne savait pas) que le fusil était chargé

And I'll never, never do it again

Et je ne le referai plus jamais

I didn't know (she didn't know) the gun was loaded (that the gun was loaded)

Je ne savais pas (elle ne savait pas) que le fusil était chargé (que le fusil était chargé)

But regarding the gun that I toted

Mais en ce qui concerne le fusil que j'ai porté

All I did was hold it high

Tout ce que j'ai fait était de le tenir haut

And go (ping)

Et de faire (ping)

I'll never, never do it again

Je ne le referai plus jamais
