Planter Café Lyrics in English Yves Montand

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Planter Café by Yves Montand from French to English.
Planter café, c'est pas pour les gens fragiles
Planting coffee isn't for fragile folks
Y'a qu'a se baisser mais c'est ça qui est difficile
You just gotta bend down but that's what's hard
Fait chaud l'été, le soleil pèse des tonnes
Summer's hot, the sun weighs tons
Y se fait porter et c'est trop pour un seul homme
It has to be carried and it's too much for one man
Le patron dira ce qu'il voudra, mon sommeil est à moi
The boss can say what he wants, my sleep is mine
Rêver café, je ne connais rien de pire
Dreaming of coffee, I know nothing worse
Pour m'énerver, ça m'empêche de dormir
To p*ss me off, it keeps me from sleeping
Porter café jusqu'au ventre des navires
Hauling coffee to the belly of ships
Y'a qu'a en grimper et faire semblant de sourire
You just climb up and pretend to smile
Ton métier contre le mien mais surtout je te préviens
Your job against mine, but I'm warning you
Planter café, c'est pas pour les gens fragiles
Planting coffee isn't for fragile folks
Y'a qu'a se baisser mais c'est ça qui est difficile, difficile, difficile
You just gotta bend down but that's what's hard, hard, hard
