Lyrics
S’il existe encore aujourd’hui
Il doit vivre aux Etats-Unis
Il doit jouer de la guitare
Et coucher sur les bancs des gares
Il doit fumer de la marijane
Avec un regard bleu qui plane
Jésus, Jésus-Christ
Jésus-Christ est un hippie
Poncho mexicain sur le dos
Autour de son front, un bandeau
Il est barbu et chevelu
Il s’est battu à Chicago
Il aime les filles aux seins nus
Il est né à San Francisco
Dans les parcs et le long des docks
Il vit dans un sac de couchage
On n’arrête pas de l’arrêter
Pour délit de vagabondage
Au grand festival de Woodstock
C’est lui qui soignait les blessés
Son père s’appelait Jo, je crois
Sa mère s’appelait Mary, je crois
Il a trente-trois ans, je crois
Le FBI lui court après, je crois
Et s’ils arrivent à le coincer
Ils mettront notre ami en croix
Lyrics translation
If it still exists today
He must live in the United States
He must play the guitar
And lie on the benches of the stations
He must smoke marijane
With a blue look that soars
Jesus, Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is a hippie
Mexican Poncho on the back
Around his forehead, a headband
He is bearded and hairy
He fought in Chicago
He loves topless girls
He was born in San Francisco
In parks and along the docks
He lives in a sleeping bag
We keep stopping him.
For misdemeanor vagrancy
At the great Woodstock festival
It was he who treated the wounded
His father's name was Jo, I think.
His mother's name was Mary, I think.
He's thirty-three, I think.
The FBI is after him, I think.
And if they manage to catch him
They'll cross our friend
