| Because I loved the bougnat's daughter
|
| That had beautiful eyes, beautiful breasts and flat feet...
|
| I lost everything, sad fortune.
|
| I wept for love,
|
| From suburb to suburb.
|
| I cried of love in the moonlight...
|
| All alone I lodge in a lost neighborhood
|
| At the end of a small street.
|
| I live in a blind hotel, so blind, so blind
|
| That I shudder when, in the evening,
|
| I see his eye glowing in the dark.
|
| When the boss eyeing me, eyeing me, eyeing me
|
| I suddenly have a stomach ache.
|
| I pass my key and get the hell out.
|
| Cut throat, assassination,
|
| Crime lurks, lurks, lurks,
|
| Local color for cinema.
|
| Late at night, armed with a big dagger,
|
| We see Bébert, the former convict, pass...
|
| He is looking for his Andalusian brunette
|
| What gave his heart
|
| To the tax collector's son.
|
| She has it in her skin, the jealous one...
|
| But Bébert surprises them and kills them
|
| At the end of a small street.
|
| I live in a blind hotel, so blind, so blind.
|
| When the boss eyeing me, eyeing me, eyeing me
|
| I ask him, "How are you?"
|
| I put my hat down and stay there.
|
| On Saturdays, the accordion,
|
| In refrain, sing, sing:
|
| When we love each other, it's for good... |
