Naniwa Blues, That's Life

Naniwa Bushidayo Jinsei Ya

They told me to drink, so I just went with it
のめといわれてすなおにのんだ
Nome to iwarete sunao ni nonda
Held in your arms, I started to feel it
かたをだかれてそのきになった
Kata wo dakarete sono ki ni natta
This foolish love turned into a disguise
ばかなであいがりこうにばけて
Baka na deai ga rikō ni bakete
Should've known better, fell for you at first sight
よせばいいのにひとめぼれ
Yoseba ii noni hitomebore
Naniwa blues, that's a woman's life
なにわぶしだよおんなのおんなのじんせいは
Naniwa bushi da yo onna no onna no jinsei wa

Lies are something someone will teach you
うそはだれかがおしえてくれる
Uso wa dareka ga oshiete kureru
Love is something someone will find for you
こいもだれかがみつけてくれる
Koi mo dareka ga mitsukete kureru
Getting tossed around by someone like that
そんなだれかにふりまわされて
Son'na dareka ni furimawasarete
Another woman disappears into the night
きえたおんながまたひとり
Kieta onna ga mata hitori
Naniwa blues, that's a woman's life
なにわぶしだよおんなのおんなのじんせいは
Naniwa bushi da yo onna no onna no jinsei wa

I bloomed and then withered, tossed aside
さいてしぼんですてられました
Saite shibon de suteraremashita
Met and parted ways, gave up the fight
あってわかれてあきらめました
Atte wakarete akiramemashita
While caught in the kindness of others
ひとのなさけにつかまりながら
Hito no nasake ni tsukamari nagara
I die on the branch of that borrowed kindness
れたなさけのえだでしぬ
Retana sake no eda de shinu
Naniwa blues, that's a woman's life
なにわぶしだよおんなのおんなのじんせいは
Naniwa bushi da yo onna no onna no jinsei wa
