Messieurs les jurés
Donnez-moi cinq minutes
Avant de me condamner
Messieurs les jurés
Vous serez peut-être un jour
Au banc des accusés
Est-ce que j'ai l'air d'un assassin?
Voyez-vous du sang sur mes mains?
Est-ce qu'on n'a plus droit d'aimer?
Messieurs les jurés
Un matin de novembre
On est venu me chercher
Ma femme depuis deux jours
Était partie, on l'avait retrouvée
Du côté de la ferme aux loups
J'ai failli en devenir fou
Est-ce qu'on n'a plus droit d'aimer?
Messieurs les jurés
Croyez-vous qu'une vie
Ça s'écrit sur du papier?
Croyez-vous qu'un avocat
Qui ne me connaît pas, peut en parler?
Je n'avais rien, je n'étais rien
Pour elle au moins j'étais quelqu'un
Est-ce qu'on n'a plus droit d'aimer?
Messieurs les jurés
Sachez que moi aussi
Je suis mort à la ferme aux loups
Il peut m'arriver n'importe quoi
Si vous saviez comme je m'en fous
Quand on n'a plus rien dans la vie
Quand on n'a même plus envie
On dit salut la compagnie
Messieurs les jurés
Buvons à ma santé
Le verre du condamné!
Dormez bien en paix
Pardonnez-moi encore
De vous avoir dérangés
Je m'en vais me faire pendre ailleurs
Dans un monde même pas meilleur
Si l'on n'a plus droit d'aimer
D'aimer....

Joe Dassin (Joseph Ira Dassin, 1938-1980) è stato un cantante e compositore statunitense naturalizzato francese. Considerato uno dei più grandi artisti della musica francese degli anni '60 e '70, Dassin ha conquistato il pubblico con la sua voce calda e le sue canzoni romantiche e orecchiabili. Super poliglotta, era in grado di esprimersi e cantare in inglese, francese, tedesco, spagnolo, italiano e greco. Nato a New York da genitori francesi, si trasferì in Francia all'età di 18 anni per dedicarsi alla musica. Il suo successo arrivò con il brano "Les Champs-Élysées" (1970), che divenne un inno nazionale francese. Tra le sue canzoni più famose ricordiamo anche "Salut les copains", "Et si tu n'existais pas", e "Laissez-moi danser". Dassin ha collaborato con numerosi artisti francesi, tra cui Claude François e Gilbert Bécaud. La sua musica è ancora oggi molto apprezzata in Francia e nel mondo.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
