Paroles et traduction Dinah Washington - Richest Guy In the Graveyard (Remastered)

Richest Guy In the Graveyard (Remastered)

L'homme le plus riche du cimetière (Remastered)

Woke up this morning, ′t was a fine sunny day

Je me suis réveillée ce matin, c'était une belle journée ensoleillée

I said daddy please stay, but he had to run away

J'ai dit chéri, s'il te plaît reste, mais il a dû s'enfuir

Cause he was busy, busy makin' lots of gold

Parce qu'il était occupé, occupé à faire beaucoup d'or

So I told him, better have some fun before you′re old

Alors je lui ai dit, tu ferais mieux de t'amuser un peu avant de vieillir

You'll be the richest guy in the graveyard

Tu seras l'homme le plus riche du cimetière

With money in the bank

Avec de l'argent à la banque

You'll be the fattest cat

Tu seras le chat le plus gros

Who′s stretched out flat

Qui est allongé à plat

You′ll have yourself to thank

Tu n'auras que toi-même à remercier

Now what's the good of earnin′

Maintenant, à quoi ça sert de gagner

With no time for spendin'

S'il n'y a pas de temps pour dépenser

You know you′re simply headed

Tu sais que tu es tout simplement dirigé

For a horizontal endin'

Vers une fin horizontale

The richest guy in the graveyard

L'homme le plus riche du cimetière

So daddy won′t you please slow down

Alors chéri, ne voudrais-tu pas ralentir un peu

You'll climb the Golden Gate to the graveyard

Tu grimperas la Golden Gate jusqu'au cimetière

That gate is not so great

Cette porte n'est pas si formidable

You'll be the sleepiest creep

Tu seras le type le plus endormi

Who′s six feet deep

Qui est à six pieds sous terre

You′ll find it out too late

Tu le découvriras trop tard

I can't imagine how you can be a good lover

Je n'imagine pas comment tu peux être un bon amant

All wrapped around in brown

Tout enveloppé dans du brun

With a five-ply cover

Avec une couverture à cinq plis

So take my tip and don′t work hard

Alors prends mon conseil et ne travaille pas dur

Then you'll delay that graveyard drive

Alors tu retarderas ce voyage au cimetière

You′ll be the richest guy in the graveyard

Tu seras l'homme le plus riche du cimetière

Now just you wait and see

Maintenant, attends de voir

You'll be the honest goon

Tu seras le bonhomme honnête

Who ever went too soon

Qui est parti trop tôt

That ain′t no use to me

Ça ne me sert à rien

I'd rather be found

Je préférerais être trouvée

On a flophouse bed

Sur un lit de flophouse

Then down in the ground

Que dans le sol

With dirt on my head

Avec de la terre sur la tête

You'll be the richest guy in the graveyard

Tu seras l'homme le plus riche du cimetière

So daddy won′t you hear my plea

Alors chéri, ne voudrais-tu pas entendre ma prière

Do me a favor and please

Fais-moi une faveur, s'il te plaît

Make out the will to me

Fais ton testament en mon nom
