Cat


Translation of lyrics:

I don't know who keeps spreading the rumor
That I live without sadness and care
That I'm more fortunate than everybody else
And that in everything and all the time
Luck accompanies me.

Refrain:
Just like everybody else, just like everybody else, just like everybody else,
I walk on this earth,
And just like everybody else, just like everybody else,
I keep asking the Fate for happiness.

Don't believe that I live as if I were in Paradise,
And troubles pass me by,
I get tired by the evening time just like everybody else,
And I get sad and cry sometimes.

Refrain:
Just like everybody else, etc.

Life sometimes knocks me about and shakes me up,
But I know one remedy for all troubles--
In the bitter hour, when I'm deathly unlucky,
I say that I'm lucky anyway.

Refrain:
Just like everybody else, etc.
