男ってやつは・・・
吉幾三 Lyrics

ひざを合わせて 男の酒は
When knees touch, that's when men drink

飲まなきゃ ならない時もある
There are times when they have to drink

ひざを抱えて ひとりで酒を
Hugging their knees, drinking alone

飲まなきゃ ならない夜もある
There are nights when they have to drink

誰かのために 走り回って
Running around for someone

何かを捨てなきゃ いけない時もある
There are times when they have to give up something

お前にゃ悪いと 悪いと思う
Feel guilty, even though it's not your fault

それでもいいさと 生きなきゃならん日も
Even if it's not okay, have to live with it

酒よ... そしてなぁ友よ
Oh, the drink...and my friend

いつか... 又一緒に飲もう
Let's drink together again, someday

今は... 多くは語らぬが
For now, don't say much

男ってやつは... それでいい
Men are like that...and that's fine

泪こらえて ひとりの酒を
Holding back tears, drinking alone

居酒屋 片隅 くちびるかみしめて
In the corner of a pub, chewing on lips

夢だけ見るのさ 男の酒は
Just dreaming, that's what men drink for

誰かと別れの むなしい時もある
There are sad times of parting with someone

愛しいおまえと 別れの時も来る
The time will come to part with the one you love

それまで頼むと ほほえむ酒もある
Until then, there's also the smile when asking for one more drink

捨てて拾って 男ってやつは
Throwing and picking up, that's what men do

すべてを背負って 生きなきゃならんのさ
Have to live while carrying everything on their backs

唄よ... 又明日を頼む
Oh, the song...I'll trust in tomorrow

夢よ... 男ってやつは
Oh, the dream...that's what men are

不器用だけど... それでいい
Clumsy, but that's okay

又一緒に飲もう
Let's drink together again

又いい時が来るサ
Good times will come again

多くはいらないよ
Don't need much
