I woke up this morning baby,
The blues was pouring out of me
Cent fois ces mots je les ai dits
Ces mots que dautres avaient crits
De toute ma voix, de toute mon me
With all the soul that I can
Le blues comme on me la appris
I woke up this morning baby
Mais ce matin l, jai 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
Jimaginais de mon cocon
Les coups, le sang, les temps boueux
Javais 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 babys far away
Jai des pardons, jai des prires
Mais lblues cest pas des phrases en lair

His babys far away
I have forgives, I have prayers
But the blues isnt sentences you throw in the air
I woke up this morning baby
Mais ce matin tas 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 youre 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 brlent un par un comme sils
Comme sils tappartiennent 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 quon nma 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
