Colinda Lyrics by Dick Rivers

Mississippi River’s

0

[Refrain]
Allons danser, Colinda
Allons danser, Colinda
Tandis qu' ta mère n'est pas là
Pour faire fâcher les vieilles femmes
C'est pas tout l' monde qu'a dansé
Une des vieilles valses du vieux temps
Allons danser, Colinda
Tandis qu' ta mère n'est pas là
Colinda vit à La Fayette
Au fond de ma Louisiane
Mais sa mère veut pas que j' l'emmène
Danser le samedi soir
Sa maman ne la quitte pas
Elle veut nous marier
Il faudra bien dans quelques mois
Si je veux l'embrasser
[Refrain]
Allons danser, Colinda
Allons danser, Colinda
Tandis qu' ta mère n'est pas là
Pour faire fâcher les vieilles femmes
C'est pas tout l' monde qu'a dansé
Une des vieilles valses du vieux temps
Allons danser, Colinda
Tandis qu' ta mère n'est pas là
Colinda was the prettiest girl
In all the Bayou land
All the boys who danced with her
Tried to steal her hand
Hey mama ! Mama always chaperoned
Colinda every night
She's great engaging boys
Holding on her tight
[Refrain]
Allons danser, Colinda
Allons danser, Colinda
Tandis qu' ta mère n'est pas là
Pour faire fâcher les vieilles femmes
C'est pas tout l' monde qu'a dansé
Une des vieilles valses du vieux temps
Allons danser, Colinda
Tandis qu' ta mère n'est pas là
Allons danser, Colinda
Tandis qu' ta mère n'est pas là
