Francis Drake
My hands are caked and yours are so fine,
but somehow they fit
trim together like ships of the line.
Marry me, oh carry me, sign your name mine:
I'll be Francis Drake and you'll be my Golden Hind.
I'll fill up your hold with all of the gold
that I can find, all of the gold that I can find.
We'll dance naked, if you're so inclined --
just billow our charms,
wrap our sheets round yardarms entwined.
I'll ride you oh I'll guide you, make your name shine.
I'll be Francis Drake and you'll be my Golden Hind.
I'll fill up your hold with all of the gold that I can find,
I'll fill up your hold with all of the gold,
with all of the gold,
with all of the gold
that I can find.
I'll be Francis Drake and you'll be my Golden Hind.

ReplyDeleteMes mains sont durcies et les votres si fines
Mais d'une facon ou autre nos mains s'assortissent
Elles s'alignent comme les bateaux sur les routes.
Epouse-moi, oh appuie-moi, fais mon nom ton nom:
Je serai Trancis Drake si tu es ma Biche Doree.
Je remplirai ta taniere avec tout l'or
que je peux trouver, avec tout l'or que je peux trouver.
Nous danserons nus si tu es ainsi inclinee
Afin d'augmenter nos charmes
Des couvertures seront etendues autour de nous.
Je ferai de toi mon cheval oh je te menerai, ferai ton nom briller
Je serai Francis Drake si tu es ma Biche Doree.
Je remplirai ta taniere avec tout l'or que je peux trouver,
Je remplirai ta taniere avec tout l'or
avec tout l'or que je peux trouver.
