Je suis Jesse Cleveland Owens
Jesse Owens
C'est un homme qui court
Un homme noir qui court
Jesse Cleveland Owens, je suis Owens
Un homme qui court plus vite que tous les autres, allez
Regardez moi mes ancêtres
Regarde mon Afrique oubliée
Berlin, 36, les jeux olympiques
Le petit fils d'esclave s'envole vers la victoire
Allez,
Negros and dogs are not allowed
Les nègres et les chiens ne sont pas admis
Le petit fils d'esclave s'envole vers la victoire
Afrique, ma lointaine, c'est mon heure de gloire aujourd'hui
C'est mon heure de gloire
Jamais personne n'a couru aussi vite Jesse
Mais pas les mêmes écoles que les blancs
Les jardins publics interdits
Negros and dogs are not allowed
Les nègres et les chiens ne sont pas admis
Le petit fils d'esclave s'envole vers la victoire
Allez,
Ne jamais regarder une femme blanche dans les yeux
En amérique, son pays, on l'appelle Tom et jamais monsieur
Afrique oubliée, regarde le fils tes fils
Comme il vole, ce sera ta vengeance
Afrique, Afrique ma lointaine
C'est notre heure de gloire aujourd'hui, c'est notre heure de gloire
Supériorité de la race aryenne, tu parles
Le petit homme à moustaches te regarde
Elle est derrière toi la race aryenne
Celle qui devait construire l'histoire
Qui devait construire l'histoire
Negros and dogs are not allowed
Les nègres et les chiens ne sont pas admis, cours
Esclaves, mes ancêtres, comme il bat mon cœur
Et c'est pour vous
La voilà ta médaille d'or
La voilà la gloire de l'homme
Je suis Jesse Cleveland Owens
Je suis Owens !
