Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tirer Des Caisses by Soldat Louis from French to English.
Tirer des caiss's O.K
Shoot crates O.K
Bon Dieu tu parl's d'un cadeau
Good God, talk about a gift
Mêm' à fond d'cale sur un rafiot
Even at the bottom of a boat
De Lorient à Glasgow
From Lorient to Glasgow
J'suis partant
I'm up for it
Descendre à terre OK
Go ashore OK
Trois nuits pour changer de peau
Three nights to change your skin
Puisque tous les ports se ressemblent
Since all ports look the same
C'est dans les bars qu'on flambe
It's in the bars that we blaze
Au bras d'fer he
In arm wrestling he
Se prendre des caisses Ok
Get some crates Ok
Dans l'noir d'un claque à mat'lots
In the dark of a slap to the mat'lots
J'imagine au coeur de l'ivresse
I imagine in the heart of drunkenness
Une frangine, ses caresses
A sister, her caresses
Et l'soleil he ho
And the sun he ho
Reprendre la mer OK
Go back to sea OK
R'trouver la gueule du bosco
Find the boatswain's mouth again
Qu'importe tant qu'y aura des escales
What does it matter as long as there are stopovers?
Des filles pour le moral
Girls for morale
Et de la bière he
And beer he
Tirer des caisses OK
Pull crates OK
Bon Dieu tu parles d'un cadeau
Damn, talk about a gift
Même à fond'cale sur un rafiot
Even at full tilt on a boat
De Lorient à Glasgow
From Lorient to Glasgow
J'suis partant he
I'm up for it
