Sorry I can't say anything about your mistakes (if there are any), maybe someone else will ;)

J'ai 99 problèmes et l'argent pourrait en résoudre au moins 73


Well well well, look what we've got here - it's the culprit himself!

Ben, dis donc, voilà ce qu'on a ici - c'est le coupable lui-même!

I was happy in my harbour when you cut me loose - floating on an ocean and confused.

This was a very mean one :D :twisted:

On pourrait traduire par : "même les gens bien peuvent avoir de vilains cheveux" 8-)
Mais la proposition "Mauvais cheveux arrivent à des gens biens" est bonne (il manque juste Des/Les mauvais cheveux")

"Elle se tenait là" or "Elle était là" would be better. "Voici elle" does not exist, or your can say "La voilà", but that wouldn't be used in that sense in French ("Here she was" cannot be translated directly from English) :wink:
