Et si...et si...bessie
Elle avait pas eu la peau noire
Comme les étangs, comme les mares
O¨´ les lions là-bas vont boire.
Et si...et si...bessie
Elle avait vécu maintenant
Avec sa belle voix du soudan
Et son feeling renversant
Mais si...mais si...bessie
Elle avait pas eu la peau noire
Bessie blessée par un chauffard
Elle s'rait pas morte sur un trottoir
En perdant doucement tout son sang
Devant un hôpital de blancs.
Et si...et si...bessie
Avait vécu parmi des gens
Qui savent qu'on est tout differents
Peut-ítr' qu'un soir, incidemment
Toutes les deux on aurait pu faire
Quelqu' chose comme un duo d'enfer.
Là-bas ou ici
Mais pas madison.
Un club dans la nuit
Un piano qui sonne.
Et si..et si..bessie
Elle avait pas eu la peau noire
Comme l'ébène à côté d'l'ivoire
Ou comme les belles robes de moire
Elle s'rait pas que dans nos mémoires
Mais avec nous ce soir
Là-bas ou ici
Paris...madison
Un club dans la nuit
Un piano qui sonne
Et si...et si...bessie
Elle avait pas eu la peau noire
Et si.
