Ol' Man River (Live Version) [Mono]
Le vieux fleuve (Version live) [Mono]
OL′ MAN RIVER
LE VIEUX FLEUVE
WRITERS OSCAR HAMMERSTEIN 11, JEROME KERN
AUTEURS OSCAR HAMMERSTEIN 11, JEROME KERN
Here we all work 'long the Mississippi
Ici, nous travaillons tous le long du Mississippi
Here we all work while the white boys play
Ici, nous travaillons tous pendant que les blancs jouent
Gettin no rest from the dawn till sunset
Pas de repos du lever au coucher du soleil
Gettin no rest till the judgment day
Pas de repos jusqu'au jour du jugement
You don′t look up, you don't look down
Tu ne regardes pas en haut, tu ne regardes pas en bas
You don't dare make the rich boss frown
Tu n'oses pas faire froncer les sourcils au patron riche
Bend your knees and bow your head
Plie tes genoux et baisse la tête
And tote that barge until you′re dead
Et porte cette barge jusqu'à ce que tu sois mort
Let me go ′way from the Mississippi
Laisse-moi m'éloigner du Mississippi
Let me go 'way from the rich man boss
Laisse-moi m'éloigner du patron riche
Show me that stream called the River Jordan
Montre-moi ce cours d'eau appelé le fleuve Jourdain
That′s the old stream that I long to cross
C'est le vieux cours d'eau que je rêve de traverser
Ol' Man River, Ol′ Man River
Le vieux fleuve, le vieux fleuve
He don't say nothin, he must know somethin
Il ne dit rien, il doit savoir quelque chose
Ol′ Man River, he just keeps rollin' along
Le vieux fleuve, il continue de rouler
You know, you know he don't plant taters
Tu sais, tu sais qu'il ne plante pas de pommes de terre
And we all know the man don′t plant no cotton
Et nous savons tous que l'homme ne plante pas de coton
And then, and then what plants ′em, all know is soon forgotten
Et puis, et puis ce qui les plante, tout le monde sait que c'est vite oublié
But Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin′ along
Mais le vieux fleuve, il continue de rouler
You, you and me
Toi, toi et moi
You know sometimes we have to we have to sweat, sweat and strain
Tu sais, parfois, il faut que nous, il faut que nous transpirions, transpirions et nous efforcions
Our bodies, our bodies are all achin' and wracked with a whole lot of pain
Nos corps, nos corps sont tous endoloris et déchirés par beaucoup de douleur
Tote that barge, lift that bale, you get a little drunk
Porte cette barge, soulève cette balle, tu te saoules un peu
And you land in ja-ail
Et tu te retrouves en prison
I get weary and so sick of tryin′
Je suis fatigué et tellement malade d'essayer
I'm tired of livin′, and fraid of dyin'
Je suis fatigué de vivre, et j'ai peur de mourir
But Ol' Man River, he just keeps rollin′ a-
Mais le vieux fleuve, il continue de rouler
Ol′ Man River, he just keeps rollin' along, ooh
Le vieux fleuve, il continue de rouler, ooh
