Lyrics
Quand on voit ton père
On ne l’oublie plus
Il y a au cimetière
Des gens qui l’ont bien connu
Mais que peut-il faire
Contre notre amour?
Me chasser, me faire la guerre?
Mais je sais bien qu’un jour
J’aurai sa fille
J’aurai ses chevaux
J’aurai sa fille
Mais il n’aura pas ma peau
Ton père a une pierre
À la place du cœur
Malgré ses colères
Moi, il ne me fait pas peur
Et dans la cuisine
Même s’il dort
Près de sa vieille carabine
Même s’il est le plus fort
Guitare…
Dans un chemin sombre
Pourtant l’autre soir
Surgissant de l’ombre
Il a bien failli m’avoir
Alors, à toutes jambes
J’ai couru vers toi
Tu m’as caché dans ta chambre
Mais cette nuit-là
J’ai eu sa fille
En premier cadeau
J’ai eu sa fille
Un jour, il aura ma peau
Lyrics translation
When we see your father
We don't forget it anymore
There is at the cemetery
People who knew him well
But what can he do
Against our love?
Chase Me, fight me?
But I know that one day
I'll have his daughter
I'll have his horses
I'll have his daughter
But he won't have my skin
Your father has a stone
Instead of the heart
Despite his anger
He doesn't scare me.
And in the kitchen
Even if he sleeps
Near his old rifle
Even if he is the strongest
Guitar…
In a dark path
Yet the other night
Rising from the shadow
He almost had me.
So, to all legs
I ran to you
You hid me in your room
But that night
I had his daughter.
As a first gift
I had his daughter.
One day he'll have my skin
