Cent ans dans la peau de l'esclave
Et juste aprs cent ans de plus
Chercher des miettes sous les tables
Avant que les blancs ne marchent dessus
Dormir sur des paquets de planches
Chanter seulement le dimanche
Tu vois la femme noire
Dans le role de la bonne
Avec tout cot
Tout tordu son bonhomme
Aprs ca faut pas que tu t'tonnes
C'est Eux qui ont fait
Eux qui ont fait
Son House et Charlie Patton
Howlin' Wolf et Blind Lemon
Bien rouge le sang de l'Afrique
Sur la jolie fleur du coton
La toute nouvelle Amrique
La belle dmocratie "Welcome"
Bateaux dportant les villages
Au bout de l'immense voyage
Grav dans la mmoire
Pour des annes-lumire
Chaque larme d'ivoire
Chaque collier de fer
Aprs ca faut pas que tu t'tonnes
C'est Eux qui ont fait
Eux qui ont fait
Son House et Charlie Patton
Howlin' Wolf et Blind Lemon
Toujours plaire aux marchands de fantomes
Elle qu'on achte et lui que l'on donne
Natre avec la peine maximum
Toujours vivant dans ce que nous sommes
Peuple interdit du reste des hommes
Cherchant le bleu de l'ancien royaume
Eux qui ont fait faut pas que ca t'tonne
Son House et Charlie Patton
Blind Blake et Willie Dixon
Ma Rainey et Robert Johnson
Howlin' Wolf et Blind Lemon...
Son House et Charlie Patton
Francis Cabrel is a French singer-songwriter and guitarist born in Agen on November 23, 1953. Heavily influenced by Bob Dylan, he has released numerous albums that primarily fall within the folk genre, with occasional forays into blues or country. Several of his songs, such as "L'encre de tes yeux" and "Petite Marie", have become enduring favorites in French music. Others, such as "C'etait l'hiver", about the suicide of a young girl, have since been covered by other artists such as Canadian Isabelle Boulay.
