Текст и перевод песни The Ink Spots - The Cat Is High

The Cat Is High

Boys, I'm mellow as a honeydew, yeah

That cat is high
Look at that look in his eye
Oh man, he's high
Yes, higher than a kite

That cat is high
Look at that look in his eye
Man, I wouldn't lie
He gets high up than a kite

Now, when you see him stumbling
Up and down the street
You know that cat's been drinking
Got no shoes upon his feet

Man, he's high
I said that cat is high
Yes, he's high
Man, he's higher than a kite

That cat is high
Look at that look in his eye
Man, I wouldn't lie
That cat's high up in a kite

Boys, he's high
Just look at them two black eyes
You know I wouldn't lie
He's higher than the sky

When you see him tipping
Round and round the block
Know that cat, his very beat
Deep clean down to his socks

That cat is high
Boys, I wouldn't lie
Oh, my, oh, my
He's higher than a kite

(Shoot the liquor to me, John Boy)

When you see him stumbling
Up and down the street
You know that cat's been drinking
Got no shoes upon his feet

Man, he's high
Yes, he's high
My, oh, my
I want to whole cooking mama with the frying pan
I know that cat's high
Yeah

Le chat est perché

Chérie, je suis détendu comme une pastèque, ouais

Ce chat est perché
Regarde ce regard dans ses yeux
Oh mon Dieu, il est perché
Oui, plus haut qu'une girouette

Ce chat est perché
Regarde ce regard dans ses yeux
Mon chéri, je ne te mentirais pas
Il est perché plus haut qu'une girouette

Maintenant, quand tu le vois tituber
Dans la rue, d'avant en arrière
Tu sais que ce chat a bu
Il n'a pas de chaussures aux pieds

Mon chéri, il est perché
J'ai dit que ce chat est perché
Oui, il est perché
Mon chéri, il est plus haut qu'une girouette

Ce chat est perché
Regarde ce regard dans ses yeux
Mon chéri, je ne te mentirais pas
Ce chat est perché plus haut qu'une girouette

Mon chéri, il est perché
Regarde ses deux yeux noirs
Tu sais que je ne te mentirais pas
Il est plus haut que le ciel

Quand tu le vois basculer
Autour du pâté de maisons
Sache que ce chat, son rythme est très fort
Jusqu'au bout de ses chaussettes

Ce chat est perché
Mon chéri, je ne te mentirais pas
Oh mon Dieu, oh mon Dieu
Il est plus haut qu'une girouette

(Frappe-moi l'alcool, John Boy)

Quand tu le vois tituber
Dans la rue, d'avant en arrière
Tu sais que ce chat a bu
Il n'a pas de chaussures aux pieds

Mon chéri, il est perché
Oui, il est perché
Mon Dieu, oh mon Dieu
Je veux toute la cuisine de maman avec la poêle à frire
Je sais que ce chat est perché
Ouais
