Lyrics and translation William Bell - Share What You Got (But Keep What You Need)

Share What You Got (But Keep What You Need)

i'; ll give a friend my last dime
i'd leave a job to do a favor any old time
but i won't share my baby
she's not part of a good deed
share what you got
but keep what you need

if you can't pay your rent
Come on home with me
i'm your friend

I need my baby
can't let her go
friend don't aske for her
i'd just have to tell you no

that's why
share what you got
keep what you need

Partage ce que tu as (mais garde ce dont tu as besoin)

Je donnerais mon dernier sou à un ami
Je laisserais un travail pour rendre service à tout moment
Mais je ne partagerai pas ma chérie
Elle ne fait pas partie d’une bonne action
Partage ce que tu as
Mais garde ce dont tu as besoin

Si tu ne peux pas payer ton loyer
Viens chez moi
Je suis ton ami

J’ai besoin de ma chérie
Je ne peux pas la laisser partir
Ne me la demande pas, mon ami
Je devrais te dire non

C’est pourquoi
Partage ce que tu as
Garde ce dont tu as besoin
