Cherry Bomb
John Mellencamp
Well I lived on the outskirts of town
In an eight room farmhouse, baby
When my brothers and friends were around
There was always somethin' doin'
Had me a couple of real nice girlfriends
Stopped by to see me every once in a while
When I think back about those days
All I can do is sit and smile
That's when a sport was a sport
And groovin' was groovin'
And dancin' meant everything
We were young and we were improvin'
Laughin' laughin' with our friends
Holding hands meant somethin' baby
Outside the club "Cherry Bomb"
Our hearts were really pumpin'
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
The winter days they last forever
And the weekends went by so quick
Went ridin' around this little country town
We were goin' nuts, girl, out in the sticks
One night me with my big mouth
A couple guys had to put me in my place
When I see those guys these days
We just laugh and say do you remember when
That's when a sport was a sport
And groovin' was groovin'
And dancin' meant everything
We were young and we were improvin'
Laughin' laughin' with our friends
Holding hands meant somethin' baby
Outside the club "Cherry Bomb"
Our hearts were really pumpin'
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Seventeen has turned thirty-five
I'm surprised that we're still livin'
If we've done any wrong
I hope that we're forgiven
Got a few kids of my own
And some days I still don't know what to do
I hope that they're not laughin' too loud
When they hear me talkin'
Like this to you
That's when a sport was a sport
And groovin' was groovin'
And dancin' meant everything
We were young and we were improvin'
Laughin', laughin' with our friends
Holding hands meant so much baby
Outside the club "Cherry Bomb"
Our hearts were really pumpin'
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Well I lived on the outskirts of town
Eh bien, je vivais en périphérie de la ville
In an eight room farmhouse, baby
Dans une ferme de huit pièces, bébé
When my brothers and friends were around
Quand mes frères et amis étaient là
There was always somethin' doin'
Il se passait toujours quelque chose
Had me a couple of real nice girlfriends
J'avais quelques petites amies vraiment sympas
Stopped by to see me every once in a while
Qui passaient me voir de temps en temps
When I think back about those days
Quand je repense à ces jours
All I can do is sit and smile
Tout ce que je peux faire, c'est m'asseoir et sourire
That's when a sport was a sport
C'est alors qu'un sport était un sport
And groovin' was groovin'
Et groover, c'était groover
And dancin' meant everything
Et danser signifiait tout
We were young and we were improvin'
Nous étions jeunes et nous nous améliorions
Laughin' laughin' with our friends
Riant, riant avec nos amis
Holding hands meant somethin' baby
Tenir la main signifiait quelque chose, bébé
Outside the club "Cherry Bomb"
A l'extérieur du club "Cherry Bomb"
Our hearts were really pumpin'
Nos cœurs battaient vraiment fort
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Dis ouais, ouais, ouais
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Dis ouais, ouais, ouais
The winter days they last forever
Les jours d'hiver semblaient durer éternellement
And the weekends went by so quick
Et les week-ends passaient si vite
Went ridin' around this little country town
On se promenait dans cette petite ville de campagne
We were goin' nuts, girl, out in the sticks
On devenait fous, ma fille, en pleine campagne
One night me with my big mouth
Une nuit, moi avec ma grande gueule
A couple guys had to put me in my place
Quelques gars ont dû me remettre à ma place
When I see those guys these days
Quand je vois ces gars ces jours-ci
We just laugh and say do you remember when
On rit juste et on dit tu te souviens quand
That's when a sport was a sport
C'est alors qu'un sport était un sport
And groovin' was groovin'
Et groover, c'était groover
And dancin' meant everything
Et danser signifiait tout
We were young and we were improvin'
Nous étions jeunes et nous nous améliorions
Laughin' laughin' with our friends
Riant, riant avec nos amis
Holding hands meant somethin' baby
Tenir la main signifiait quelque chose, bébé
Outside the club "Cherry Bomb"
A l'extérieur du club "Cherry Bomb"
Our hearts were really pumpin'
Nos cœurs battaient vraiment fort
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Dis ouais, ouais, ouais
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Dis ouais, ouais, ouais
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Dis ouais, ouais, ouais
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Dis ouais, ouais, ouais
Seventeen has turned thirty-five
Dix-sept ans sont devenus trente-cinq
I'm surprised that we're still livin'
Je suis surpris que nous soyons encore en vie
If we've done any wrong
Si nous avons fait quelque chose de mal
I hope that we're forgiven
J'espère que nous sommes pardonnés
Got a few kids of my own
J'ai quelques enfants à moi
And some days I still don't know what to do
Et certains jours, je ne sais toujours pas quoi faire
I hope that they're not laughin' too loud
J'espère qu'ils ne rient pas trop fort
When they hear me talkin'
Quand ils m'entendent parler
Like this to you
Comme ça à toi
That's when a sport was a sport
C'est alors qu'un sport était un sport
And groovin' was groovin'
Et groover, c'était groover
And dancin' meant everything
Et danser signifiait tout
We were young and we were improvin'
Nous étions jeunes et nous nous améliorions
Laughin', laughin' with our friends
Riant, riant avec nos amis
Holding hands meant so much baby
Tenir la main signifiait tellement, bébé
Outside the club "Cherry Bomb"
A l'extérieur du club "Cherry Bomb"
Our hearts were really pumpin'
Nos cœurs battaient vraiment fort
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Dis ouais, ouais, ouais
Say yeah, yeah, yeah

All I can do is sit and smile
Tudo o que posso fazer é sentar e sorrir
That's when a sport was a sport
Foi quando um esporte era um esporte
And groovin' was groovin'
E curtir era curtir
And dancin' meant everything
E dançar significava tudo
We were young and we were improvin'
Éramos jovens e estávamos melhorando
Laughin' laughin' with our friends
Rindo, rindo com nossos amigos
Holding hands meant somethin' baby
Segurar as mãos significava algo, querida
Outside the club "Cherry Bomb"
Fora do clube "Cherry Bomb"
Our hearts were really pumpin'
Nossos corações estavam realmente pulsando

The winter days they last forever
Os dias de inverno pareciam durar para sempre
And the weekends went by so quick
E os fins de semana passavam tão rápido
Went ridin' around this little country town
Andávamos por essa pequena cidade do interior
We were goin' nuts, girl, out in the sticks
Estávamos ficando loucos, garota, no meio do mato
One night me with my big mouth
Uma noite eu com minha boca grande
A couple guys had to put me in my place
Alguns caras tiveram que me colocar no meu lugar
When I see those guys these days
Quando vejo esses caras hoje em dia
We just laugh and say do you remember when
Nós apenas rimos e dizemos você se lembra de quando
That's when a sport was a sport
Foi quando um esporte era um esporte
And groovin' was groovin'
E curtir era curtir
And dancin' meant everything
E dançar significava tudo
We were young and we were improvin'

In una fattoria di otto stanze, baby
When my brothers and friends were around
Quando i miei fratelli e amici erano intorno
There was always somethin' doin'
C'era sempre qualcosa da fare
Had me a couple of real nice girlfriends
Avevo un paio di belle ragazze
Stopped by to see me every once in a while

All I can do is sit and smile
Tutto quello che posso fare è sedermi e sorridere
That's when a sport was a sport
Era allora che uno sport era uno sport
And groovin' was groovin'
E ballare era ballare
And dancin' meant everything
E danzare significava tutto
We were young and we were improvin'
Eravamo giovani e miglioravamo
Laughin' laughin' with our friends
Ridendo, ridendo con i nostri amici
Holding hands meant somethin' baby
Tenere le mani significava qualcosa, baby
Outside the club "Cherry Bomb"

Stavamo impazzendo, ragazza, fuori in campagna
One night me with my big mouth
Una notte io con la mia grande bocca
A couple guys had to put me in my place
Un paio di ragazzi hanno dovuto rimettermi al mio posto
When I see those guys these days
Quando vedo quei ragazzi oggi
We just laugh and say do you remember when
Ridiamo solo e diciamo ti ricordi quando
That's when a sport was a sport
