";I woke up this morning baby,
The blues was pouring out of me";
Cent fois ces mots je les ai dits
Ces mots que d'autres avaient ?crits
De toute ma voix, de toute mon ?me
";With all the soul that I can";
Le blues comme on me l'a appris
";I woke up this morning baby";
Mais ce matin l?, j'ai compris


";I woke up this morning baby,
The blues was pouring out of me";
A hundred times I said those words
Those words others wrote
With all my voice, with all my soul
";With all the soul that I can";
The blues like I learned it
";I woke up this morning baby";
But that morning, I understood.
La peine aux longs champs de coton
J'imaginais de mon cocon
Les coups, le sang, les temps boueux
J'avais mal en fermant les yeux


The hard work in the cotton fields
I was imagining in my cocoon
The hits, the blood, the mud weather
I was hurt while closing my eyes
";His baby's far away";
J'ai des pardons, j'ai des pri?res
Mais l'blues c'est pas des phrases en l'air


";His baby's far away";
I have forgives, I have prayers
But the blues isn't sentences you throw in the air
";I woke up this morning baby";
Mais ce matin t'as vraiment froid
Tu comprends du fond de ta poitrine
Tous les blues sont ?crits pour toi


";I woke up this morning baby";
But this morning you're really cold
You understand deep in your chest
All the blues are written for you
";Oh, oh I feel, the blues in me
Nobody knows how I really feel
Nobody knows, nobody cares";
Les mots te br?lent un par un comme s'ils
Comme s'ils t'appartiennent enfin
Ces blues ?taient les tiens


";Oh, oh I feel, the blues in me
Nobody knows how I really feel
Nobody knows, nobody cares";
Words are burning your one by one like if
Like if they are finally yours
Those blues were yours
De toute ma voix, toute mon ?me, ";with all the soul that I can";
Le blues qu'on n'm'a jamais appris
";I woke up this morning, the blues was pouring out of me
Nobody knows, nobody sees";


With all my voice, all my soul, ";with all the soul that I can";
The blues I was never taught
";I woke up this morning, the blues was pouring out of me
Nobody knows, nobody sees";
