Lyrics and translation The Pogues - Turkish Song Of The Damned - Live At The Forum December 12th 1991 (feat. Joe Strummer)
I
come
old
friend
from
hell
tonight
Je
viens,
vieil
ami,
de
l'enfer
ce
soir
Across
the
rotting
sea
À
travers
la
mer
pourrie
Nor
the
nails
of
the
cross,
nor
the
blood
of
Christ
Ni
les
clous
de
la
croix,
ni
le
sang
du
Christ
Can
bring
you
help
this
eve
Ne
peuvent
t'aider
ce
soir
The
dead
have
come
to
claim
a
debt
from
thee
Les
morts
sont
venus
réclamer
une
dette
de
toi
They
stand
outside
your
door
Ils
se
tiennent
devant
ta
porte
Four
score
and
three
Quatre-vingt-trois
Did
you
keep
a
watch
for
the
dead
man′s
wind
As-tu
surveillé
le
vent
du
mort
?
Did
you
see
the
woman
with
the
comb
in
her
hand
As-tu
vu
la
femme
avec
le
peigne
dans
la
main
Wailing
away
on
the
wall
on
the
strand
Pleurant
sur
le
mur
du
rivage
As
you
danced
to
the
Turkish
song
of
the
damned
Alors
que
tu
dansais
au
son
de
la
chanson
turque
des
damnés
You
remember
when
the
ship
went
down
Tu
te
souviens
quand
le
navire
a
coulé
You
left
me
on
the
deck
Tu
m'as
laissé
sur
le
pont
The
captain's
corpse
jumped
up
Le
cadavre
du
capitaine
a
sauté
And
threw
his
arms
around
my
neck
Et
m'a
enlacé
le
cou
For
all
these
years
I′ve
had
him
on
my
back
Pendant
toutes
ces
années,
je
l'ai
eu
sur
le
dos
This
debt
cannot
be
paid
with
all
your
jack
Cette
dette
ne
peut
pas
être
payée
avec
tout
ton
argent
Did
you
keep
a
watch
for
the
dead
man's
wind
As-tu
surveillé
le
vent
du
mort
?
Did
you
see
the

femme
avec
le
peigne
dans
la
main
Wailing

And
as
I
sit
and
talk
to
you
I
see
your
face
go
white
Et
alors
que
je
m'assois
et
te
parle,
je
vois
ton
visage
devenir
blanc
This
shadow
hanging
over
me
is
no
trick
of
the
light
Cette
ombre
qui
plane
au-dessus
de
moi
n'est
pas
un
tour
de
lumière
The
spectra
on

back
will
soon
be
free
Les
spectres
sur
mon
dos
seront
bientôt
libres
